Will the attack on Iran signal martial law here at home?

If they use nukes (and perhaps even if sanity somehow prevails and they restrain themselves) there MUST be massive street protests here and across the world. They will need to attempt to step on such dissent quickly or risk having the White House overrun by all the citizens who will suddenly wake up and realize that World War III began while they innocently snoozed the night away.

As they have already expressed their dislike (okay, HATE) of internet bloggers and the truth and freedom we represent, this will be their chance to flip the switch and leave us with a 24-hour Faux disinformation campaign. I fully expect to see such things as a daily two minute (or longer) hate take place, attendance mandatory. All the secret continental detainment camps will become full overnight, with many of us DUers no doubt getting there soon enough to claim the top bunks.

Is this paranoia? Probably. Is this realistic? Hell yeah. Is this likely? What do YOU think?
