US's Most Grotesque Official Secrets Gangsters

Four page advertisement by the Aspen Security Forum in the New York Times Sunday Magazine, 19 June 2011, with a dreadfully mercenary description, emulating Bilderberg and Bohemian Grove:

"Just one year old, the Aspen Security Forum has already become the nation's premier gathering of homeland security/counterterrorism experts and devotees (emphasis added). Attendees will listen to, and then participate in, a series of riveting and thoughtful conversations about the most pressing issue of our time -- keeping our country safe in the age of terror -- while finding common ground across the divides of party and ideology. Chance encounters with key decision makers and informal gatherings with top thought leaders on the campus of Aspen Meadows, at breaks, over meals and during long walks, will help to cement existing relationships and build new ones. Consensus will build around new and existing approaches, with the aim of making us all safe as we can be in this volatile and turbulent post-9/11 world."

To answer these and other critical questions as we approach the 10th anniversary of 9/11, the Aspen Institute's Homeland Security Program, in partnership with The New York Times, presents the second annual Aspen Security Forum, July 27-30, 2011. The Forum will bring together top-level government officials, industry leaders, and leading thinkers for three days of in-depth discussions at our Aspen Meadows campus in Aspen, Colorado on the state of: aviation security; maritime security; border security; mass transit security; intelligence; critical infrastructure protection; cybersecurity; counterterrorism strategy; terrorism finance; and much more.

The NYT ad also names the media representatives to attend the luxurious security-gangster conference: ABC News, Associated Press, CBS News, NBC News, CNN, Fox News, National Public Radio, Bloomberg; Al-Jazeera, The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, The Washington Times, Congressional Quarterly, Foreign Policy, Time, Slate, Fortune, Politico, The New Yorker and Wired. These too enormously benefit economically from prolongation of the war on terrorism and other illusions of national security threats, and are given access to official secrets to buttress reporting.

Be a war criminal or war criminal cheerleader. Vacation in Aspen.

Ugh.

Tells you all you need to know, really, about the present state of things...

any press that is actually free is either regional only, or shut down (or bought out) once its voice gets too loud.
