Doesn't say anything about the "authority".
I would also argue that "enemies or detractors" can easily be enemies or detractors from within or own country or authority.
I will say, I'm not quite as enthusiastic as Al is about the 'upcoming rebellion or revolution'.
It's not that I don't agree with WHY he thinks this, 'cause I do. I just like to think there's still a chance to do something WITHIN the system.
Only time will tell however.
Would also add, that our own Patriots, of our own Revolution, were most certainly Bucking the Authority, when they declared their Independence. And if they had been caught, would have most certainly been tried for Treason, and hung.
