Gen. Franks Suggests Making US a Banana Republic Run by the Army

General Tommy Franks (USA Ret.) has stated in an interview that the US Constitution could not withstand a mass-casualty-producing attack by WMD.
Genera Franks, the antihero of Iraq II, suggests that the military would be called on to run the US in the event that WMDs caused mass casualties. The American people themselves would supposedly seek this protection.

Is this a patriotic warning, an argument in support of the Patriot Act and other abridgmens of rights, a threat, or a trial balloon to test the reaction of the American public?
How would the rest of the world feel about a military junta or militaristic junta running the US?
Would George W. Bush be out of the picture, a puppet of the military regime, or the puppeteer?
Was 9/11 just the first phase of an attempt to overthrow the US Constitution -- not by Muslims, Arabs, or foreigners, but by US insiders?
To me, Franks' -- well, frankness -- is shocking.
Franks professes a high opinion of President Bush. He went to high school in Texas with Bush's wife. They and Franks should be pretty close.
