Wake Up! You Are The Battlefield!

By Zen Gardner

How we perceive the world around us creates and reinforces the world around us. Once we become conscious and aware that this existing matrix we are witnessing is an arbitrary creation manipulated by power-crazed puppeteers, however you perceive them, that is when the change happens.

TrapWire: The Federal Gov t is Literally Watching Every Move You Make

By Joe Wolverton, II

TrapWire is the name of this newly revealed network of cameras and other surveillance tools being utilized by a federal government that is rapidly constructing an impenetrable, inescapable theater of surveillance, most of which is going unnoticed by Americans and unreported by the mainstream media.

Torture with Impunity

Yesterday, a dark chapter in American history got that much more disgraceful. Attorney General Holder announced the closure of the last two open criminal inquiries into abusive interrogations by CIA officials. The pronouncement means that not a single CIA official will be prosecuted in federal courts for any of the abuse, torture or even death that took place at the hands of CIA.

No Accountability for Torturers

By Marjorie Cohn

By letting American officials, lawyers and interrogators get away with torture, and indeed, murder, the United States sacrifices any right to scold or punish other countries for their human rights violations.

Whitewashed: CIA s Murder of Gul Rehman

A maxim of the law states that the law must not just be done, but it must be seen to be done, what people like John Durham and Eric Holder do no understand, is that the US justice system is not seeing with the same eyes as the rest of the world.

Holder: Free pass for CIA thugs on torture, murder of prisoners

New York Times

08/30/12

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. announced Thursday that no one would be prosecuted for the deaths of a prisoner in Afghanistan in 2002 and another in Iraq in 2003, eliminating the last possibility that any criminal charges will be brought as a result of the brutal interrogations carried out by the C.I.A. Mr. Holder had already ruled out any charges related to the use of waterboarding and other methods that most human rights experts consider to be torture...

Authority!
by Timothy J Taylor

Rights Groups Denounce Dropping of CIA Torture Cases

Jim Lobe, Inter Press Service: ''U.S. human rights groups have roundly condemned Thursday s announcement by Attorney General Eric Holder that the Justice Department will not pursue prosecutions of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officers who may have been responsible for the deaths of two prisoners in their custody. The announcement appeared to mark the end of all efforts by the U.S. government to hold CIA interrogators accountable for torture and mistreating prisoners detained during the so-called 'Global War on Terror.'''
