Martial Law and the Avian Flu Pandemic by Michel Chossudovsky

The statement of President Bush suggests the enactment of Martial Law in the case of an avian flu outbreak. Martial Law could also be established, using the pretext of an outbreak of avian flu in foreign countries and its potential impacts on the US.

In other words, the Military rather than the country's civilian health authorities would be put in charge.

But who else would have the resources to control what could be wild masses of histerical people? The 1918 Flu pandemic killed 40 million people worldwide. I can't imagine the panic that will occur with this one.
