What's really behind 'Homeland Insecurity'?

Why is it that most politicians of both parties have no problem subsidizing the Iron Dome to protect Israel from enemy air attacks with billions of dollars in taxpayer money but claim they haven't the funds to build a fence to protect our southern border?

Why do law abiding citizens get rousted by perverts working for the TSA at virtually all major U.S. airports but our esteemed government officials don't enforce the immigration laws currently on the books?

What about the continuous and warrantless eavesdropping by the NSA of our email and cellphone conversations and ubiquitous electronic surveillance with cameras everywhere?

Also, what about the significant militarization of local law enforcement, and why have numerous federal agencies purchased billions of rounds of hollow-point ammunition?

It seems to me that since 9/11 with the advent of "Homeland Insecurity," the Patriot Act and the National Defense Authorization Act, average American citizens are viewed as criminals by our corrupt tyrannical government.

Why is that? What are the people running our government really afraid of?
