Found the following on the net, complete with commentary.......
This recent article on the ReichLand Security for kids, has the seed elements of Orwellian prophecy. As if there weren't enough incentive for parents to get their children out of the public schools, here's an added motive. Now they're teaching children this fascist filth as part of their mandatory school experience. No doubt there is plenty of politically correct slogans and messages intertwined with this project,
reminiscent of Nazi Youth training in 1940s' Germany.
It's not hard to predict that the next step of this child-brainwashing program will be to, "report your peers or even parents to the authorities" in the case of "suspicious behavior", such as in Orwells' "1984". Just picture your children surrounded by images of "patriotism" such as the communist scare scenarios of the 1950's except 5 times more intense, and you can begin to understand the intentions behind these government actions.
Of course, the first purpose of this move is to get a strong message to adults THROUGH THEIR CHILDREN, to the effect of "you'd better be afraid, and in the politically correct manner", because if your kids can do it, then it ought to be easy for an adult. Never mind that the biggest terrorists of all are those running "Homeland Security" and the current US government in general. Just wave your flags alongside your brainwashed children, get in line and don't ask any questions.
The article admits that this is an effort to "create a movement", (saturated in fascism and fear mongering world supremacy). If you think this is mild, just wait, the worst is yet to come by far.
What you see below is just the writing on the wall. This "movement" includes the issuing of ID cards to those who are politically correct through employers. The Plan is no doubt to ultimately require such ID cards to purchase basic necessities and to gain qualification for government assistence of all kinds. It is also designed to exclude such persons as protestors and other "political dissidents" who, because they disagree with government policy, are to be watched carefully as potential "terrorists".
Those parents who are not entirely stupid as well as naive, will want to pull their children OUT of public schools NOW. Ask yourself; "Do I really want my children to be trained like this as little military robots, or future CIA operatives on behalf of big business?"

Ad campaign urges employers, families to plan for emergency

By Mimi Hall, USA TODAY
The Homeland Security Department is enlisting allies in its effort to prepare the nation for another terrorist attack: your kids and your boss.
Starting next month, children in grades 4 though 8 and employers nationwide will be asked to help get families and companies better prepared to respond to a crisis.
In schools, on the Internet and in TV and radio ads, youngsters will be introduced to a new Homeland Security mascot: a dog (an American shepherd) that will be named in a contest. The campaign, using the dog and a set of Ad Council advertisements, will encourage families to develop an emergency plan and talk about where kids should go, who will pick them up and how they will make contact.
For the past year, the Homeland Security Department and groups such as the American Red Cross (news - web sites) have encouraged families to make plans and put together emergency kits.
The kits should include food and water, flashlights, battery-powered radios and anything else needed to get by for up to three days if the power is out, communications are down and it's impossible to leave home.
Officials have promoted these preparations as crucial not just for a terrorist attack but also for hurricanes, earthquakes and other disasters. Polls show four in 10 Americans have followed the advice.
Officials hope to improve those numbers. Among the organizations spreading the word: the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, Salvation Army and U.S. Chamber of Commerce (news - web sites).
"It takes a long time to create a movement," says Susan Neely, who's in charge of the programs at Homeland Security. "Seat belts took 20 years."
Just as children learned to bug their parents to quit smoking and wear seat belts, Homeland Security officials hope grade-school kids will prompt moms and dads to put together emergency plans.
In one radio advertisement, for example, a child asks his mother what to do and where to go if the electricity goes out and telephones don't work.
Employers will be encouraged to develop continuity plans so that they can keep operating through a crisis. They also will be encouraged to give their workers wallet cards with company information and to clearly mark exit routes.
Steven Brill of the non-profit America Prepared Campaign says businesses must do more to prepare for emergencies. "Some are doing a good job, but some aren't."
