Leaks from a Drone Program Whistleblower – Highlights from the Intercept’s Blockbuster Investigation
libertyblitzkrieg.com / Michael Krieger /
Besides sharing my own personal insight into the goings on in this crazy world we live in, and where I think things are headed, the other primary purpose of Liberty Blitzkrieg is to highlight certain stories that readers may have missed or overlooked while dealing with all the ins and outs of everyday life.
In a perfect world, every American would read the eight articles that comprise the Intercept’s drone investigation published earlier today; however, the reality is that simply isn’t going to happen. As such, I went ahead and read them myself, and what follows are some particularly juicy excerpts that will hopefully inspire readers to investigate further.
The reason I think these articles are so important, is not because they are based on intel leaked by an additional whistleblower (i.e., not Snowden), but because you can’t read the information without concluding quite simply that the U.S. empire is completely and totally out of control. That the plethora of American military adventures overseas are not only not making us safer, but are in fact making us far more vulnerable.
The way I will highlight this information is by first providing the title of each article with a link, as well as an author attribution followed by relatively brief excepts. I hope you find all of this as interesting and concerning as I did.
1. The Assassination Complex by Jeremy Scahill
When the Obama administration has discussed drone strikes publicly, it has offered assurances that such operations are a more precise alternative to boots on the ground and are authorized only when an “imminent” threat is present and there is “near certainty” that the intended target will be eliminated. Those terms, however, appear to have been bluntly redefined to bear almost no resemblance to their commonly understood meanings.
