Discussion (academic) is not illegal at least so far in the United States.
Neither is publication. The New World Order is really the Fourth Reich but
we still have most of our free speech rights. Half of the TIHKAL book on on
the political and legal issues.

Now in Australia it is different. Check out Chapter 23 "Who is John Jones?"
in TIHKAL for an absurd example of censorship in a free society. Not that
the CDA in the US isn't just as absurd.

Although it looks like the debacle in Florida may speed matters up. Who
could have any respect for the USA legal-political system after this.
