Snowden: They say it's better to kick someone out of a plane than let these people have day in court

[kpete]

Someone responding to the story said 'real spies do not speak like that'. Well, I am a spy and that is how they talk. Whenever we had a debate in the office on how to handle crimes, they do not defend due process – they defend decisive action. They say it is better to kick someone out of a plane than let these people have a day in court. It is an authoritarian mindset in general.

6. And to the many others who stood for peace, justice and equality...

In light of the assassination program, a few questions about some people I knew about...



Secretary of State Colin Powell's chief of staff, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson,
said he thought the Cheney-linked assassination program was active, not a hypothetical thing.
Col. Wilkerson said ambassadors and diplomatic staff overseas reported kidnappings and other nefarious operations in their posted nations.

Well, if Cheney's secret program was killing people overseas, what was to stop them from killing people within the United States? The CIA wasn't supposed to operate domestically by law, but they do. Specifically, I'd like to know if Cheney's secret team was involved with these convenient deaths:

Michael Connell (Election Fraud Technical Guru)

John Kokal (No WMDs in Iraq)

David Kelly (No WMDs in Iraq)

Cliff Baxter(ENRON #2)

Gary Webb (CIA drugs)

Jim Hatfield (Bush bin Laden connection)

Deborah Palfrey (Washington Madame knew everybody from Congress-White House-CIA-Contracting Scam)

Raymond Lemme (Election Fraud)

Athan Gibbs (Election Fraud)

Paul Wellstone (Official White House Enemy)

Here are more people who died under suspicious circumstances while investigating, eh, government perfidy:

Danny Casolaro (Octopus investigator)

Abbie Hoffman (October Surprise investigator)

Steve Kangas (Powers-That-Be investigator)

Mark Lombardi (Conspiracies In Action investigator)

One more thing: Why is Cheney taking the heat for the assassination program? Sneer was the Veep to Smirk.

The little turd from Crawford was very horny for war.

Know your BFEE: Bush has Killed a Million Innocent People for Their Oil.

Bush even said Money Trumps Peace. Sometimes.

God knows that's nowhere near close to everybody, unfortunately. In infinite ways.

3. That's how the CIA had them do it in Chile and Argentina.

Not surprised at all.

4. Yeah, that's a call back to the Dirty War

Led by the fascists in South America, with full support of the American administrations of the time (Nixon, Kissinger.)

Between 10 and 30 thousand leftists in South America were murdered to keep capitalism safe.

The group in the U.S. that would really worry me in regard to this issue in America is the religious right.

They have the authoritarian mindset and the ideological underpinning.
