Belarus Bans Use of Foreign Websites

bs0d3 writes "A new law in Belarus prohibits people from using 'foreign' websites. The law requires that all companies and individuals who are registered as entrepreneurs in Belarus use only domestic Internet domains for providing online services, conducting sales, or exchanging email messages. The tax authorities and the secret police are authorized to investigate violations."

    You've got to be kidding; this is the most idiotic thing I've read all day.

    The Tea Party is indeed full of nincompoops, but protectionism is the exact opposite of what they want; they want anarchy with giant corporations and their private armies making all the rules, much like Somalia. It's all about "the free market" and "The Invisible Hand", which just devolves into "the biggest bully wins", but to conflate this idea with protectionism and hating foreigners is just idiotic.

    Senator Carl Levin, D-Michigan explains, as I mentioned in my previous comment that Obama's administration forced the Senate to remove the language from the bill that would have prevented the US citizens from being taken in by the military and held indefinitely, without access to lawyers or anything that US citizens have rights to.

    That means that US citizens can be thrown into indefinite detention by the president of United States singlehandedly and US citizens have no legal recourse and they can't even be found out by anybody who is looking for them.

    That is a concentration camp.

    Obama becomes a dictator.

    This NDAA gives power to detain civilians by military, so this is a martial law.

    You are still completely confused, just as I explained the US citizens and others will be, which is ensured on purpose by the MSM.

    The SOURCES are given to you, is Democrat Senator not a good enough source for you?

    Obviously you are not an honest actor, otherwise I would have gotten a retraction for you here rather than this nonsense. You are not interested in the actual truth of the matter, see, you are not just a 'confused' person, you are being ideologically driven.

    As to me putting quotation marks around words like 'elected' - this means that it does not matter whether you elect this dictator and whether you elect the next one, what matters is that the line of dictators is selected carefully for you to 'elect' from.

    Good night.
