Emergency act not Marshal Law

Opinion
The War measures act with its bitter taste earned in the crisis with separatists decades ago is is not the same. The new law had lots of benches to accomplish to maintain that status. The lack of death or insurrection may demonstrated its value over what is usually considered archaic powers marshal law powers that regimes have used to hide information or keep power.
Aggrieved people inflamed by word choice a lesson.
The reasonable standard of order breaking down was met. Review Judge.
Deserves serious scrutiny.
The Emergency act is managed by a committee of Parliament, it expires in 30 days if not revoked or extended.

Is this just the result of all the generations of Trekies (Star trek) the TV series 1996 -1969 coming to age. We think not! Its more likely a mix of mans curiosity and pragmatic need to know the way to live and survive and to react to the powers that keep human life going.
