The Police State in America is in Full Effect

Democracy and accountable government simply does not exist when the executive branch can take a country to wars in behalf of secret agendas operating behind cover stories that are transparent lies.

It is just as important to ask these same questions about the agenda of the US police state.  Why have Bush and Obama removed the protection of law as a shield of the people and turned law into a weapon in the hands of the executive branch?  How are Americans made safer by the overthrow of their civil liberties?  Indefinite detention and execution without due process of law are the hallmarks of the tyrannical state.

They are terrorism, not a protection against terrorism.  Why is every communication of every American and apparently the communications of most other people in the world, including Washington’s most trusted European allies, subject to being intercepted and stored in a gigantic police state database?  How does this protect Americans from terrorists?

Why is it necessary for Washington to attack the freedom of the press and speech, to run roughshod over the legislation that protects whistleblowers such as Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden, to criminalize dissent and protests, and to threaten journalists such as Julian Assange, Glenn Greenwald, and Fox News reporter James Rosen? http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/22/opinion/another-chilling-leak-investigation.html?_r=0 

How does keeping citizens ignorant of their government’s crimes make citizens safe from terrorists?

These persecutions of truth-tellers have nothing whatsoever to do with “national security” and “keeping Americans safe from terrorists.”  The only purpose of these persecutions is to protect the executive branch from having its crimes revealed. Some of Washington’s crimes are so horrendous that the International Criminal Court would issue a death sentence if those guilty could be brought to trial. This video covers the loss of freedom and the never-ending encroachment of our cival liberties.
