FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Homeland Security Friend or Foe? -- Did Author Pen Fiction Book or
Prophecy?

PHOENIX, AZ - Sept. 9, 2003 (Send2Press Newswire) --  Before 9/11 who
would have guessed that all our federal law enforcement and central
intelligence organizations would be headed by one central federal agency? 
Yet "Freedom Lost," a fiction novel authored by Edward J. Kleinschmidt
over a year before 9/11 and just released by Publish America, predicted
just that.

"The world as we know it has changed drastically since that
earth-shattering day," says the author.  "We gladly sacrifice our personal
freedoms to shield ourselves from further acts of terrorism.  Could it be
that in our haste to stop up the gaps in Home Land Security we have opened
Pandora's Box?"

It has been said that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts
absolutely.   I'm sure our founding fathers could never have imagined the
world in which we now live.  Yet they placed into the constitution checks
and balances to stave off totalitarianism.  If, however, we allow one
branch of government to wield a disproportionate amount of authority we
could fall prey to the very thing we hope to defend ourselves against.

"Freedom Lost" was written as a warning.  If we become too complacent as a
nation we run the risk that one day we could wake up in an America we
would rather not live in.  The thought of Storm Troopers and Gunships
attacking the citizens of our great land is unthinkable, yet history has
shown that anything is possible.  Let us never take our freedoms for
granted.

Two centuries have come and gone since our founding fathers declared, 
"give me liberty or give me death."   Since that day this nation has been
an island of freedom in an ocean of despair.

We enjoy the freedoms many only dream about, but along with such freedoms
come responsibilities.  Many brave Americans have died defending this
great nation.  They fought and died to stave off enemies from without, but
could another foe just as treacherous be lurking within?
