Joe Rogan - The American War Machine
A video from the beginning of 2011, and I thought I'd post it since Joe Rogan came up again on my radar recently. He is one person who is awake and has a voice that could reach many - if they were willing to listen.
Warning: following video contains some coarse language.
P.S. Did you watch the bonus bit after the credits? This was referring to World Trade Center Tower 7, a 47 story sky scraper that collapsed on 9/11 at free fall speed, and was not hit by any airplane. It was not one of the twin towers, but a separate building.
Most people have no idea about this collapse because the media resolutely disallowed any coverage.
Inquiring minds might like to explore this issue, learn about it and google it. Make your own assessment. Does it make sense to you that a building not hit by a plane, and that sustained just some small office fires, would collapse at freefall speed right into its own footprint? What was inside that building? Who were the tenants? If you do a little research, the answers to these questions might just raise a few more bigger questions, they did for me.

Obama moves to authorize US citizens to be detained indefinitely without trial.
From The Guardian...
Military given go-ahead to detain US terrorist suspects without trial
Civil rights groups dismayed as Barack Obama abandons commitment to veto new security law contained in defence bill
Barack Obama has abandoned a commitment to veto a new security law that allows the military to indefinitely detain without trial American terrorism suspects arrested on US soil who could then be shipped to Guantánamo Bay.
Human rights groups accused the president of deserting his principles and disregarding the long-established principle that the military is not used in domestic policing. The legislation has also been strongly criticised by libertarians on the right angered at the stripping of individual rights for the duration of "a war that appears to have no end".

CIA Drones Kill Large Groups Without Knowing Who They Are

CIA Drones Kill Large Groups Without Knowing Who They Are
The expansion of the CIA’s undeclared drone war in the tribal areas of Pakistan required a big expansion of who can be marked for death. Once the standard for targeted killing was top-level leadership in al-Qaeda or one of its allies. That’s long gone, especially as the number of people targeted at once has grown.
This is the new standard, according to a blockbuster piece in the Wall Street Journal: “men believed to be militants associated with terrorist groups, but whose identities aren’t always known.” The CIA is now killing people without knowing who they are, on suspicion of association with terrorist groups. The article does not define the standards are for “suspicion” and “association.”
