Why Snowden Matters: National Security vs. The National Security State

By Jim Fetzer and PressTV “Snowden is not revealing information that places the national security of the nation at stake but information revealing the NSA has instead been tracking enemies of the national security state.” The most obvious responses to Edward Snowden’s revelations that the NSA has been conducting massive and all-pervasive surveillance of the American people–and, indeed, of targeted populations abroad–have come from those, such as Sens. Diane Feinstein (D-CA), John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsay Graham (R-SC), who maintain that he is placing the national security of the United States at risk.…

DHS insider: It’s about to get Very Ugly

By Douglas J. Hagmann “Everyone needs to reflect on the United States having become obsessed with national security, even to the extent of gutting our Bill of Rights and turning the country into a “surveillance society”. It is long past time that serious consideration be given to dismantling DHS and returning the organization of our government to its far saner past.”–Jim Fetzer [Editor’s note: While I would like to believe that Douglas Hagmann is exaggerating, all the evidence is against it. From my point of view, it is astounding that…

Rob Kall: The Petty Tyrant of OpEdNews

by Jim Fetzer “This article is not currently available”–return to search on “New Proof of JFK Film Fakery” (and to 42 other articles) New questions are being raised about the definition of “journalist” and who should properly qualify, which appears to be one more attempt by the federal government to suppress freedom of speech and of the press and to further abrogate the rights of American citizens under the First Amendment of the Constitution. A thoughtful discussion of this question has been published in “Journalist Shield Law has Problems” by Jonah Goldberg.  Goldberg is a…

by Jim Fetzer “When did fact become myth? Is Jewish ownership of large sections of the media a myth? Are AIPAC and the US government’s subservience to Israel a myth? Is repeated interference in Church affairs by Jewish groups a myth?”–Stuart Littlewood As Stuart Littlewood has reported, “These ‘commandments’ must be obeyed”, a new surge of suppression of criticism of the policies and actions of the government of Israel has surfaced.  These “commandments” are clearly intended to reflect a conception of anti-Semitism that is vastly broader than is justifiable and which has…

Senate Betrays Constitution for Israel: Commitment to Attack Iran

by Jim Fetzer (with M.J. Rosenberg) One more war for Israel In a stunning betrayal of the Constitution of the United States, which, under Article VI grants treaties the same status under the Constitution as the Constitution itself and therefore obligates the United States to conform to the UN Charter and international law to which it is bound by treaties, the US Senate has passed a resolution that commits the nation to support Israel militarily, diplomatically, and economically should it decide to attack Iran “in its legitimate self-defense”, where every action Israel…

The JFK War: The Case of Federal Judge John Tunheim

by James Norwood (with Jim Fetzer) In 1995, John R. Tunheim was nominated by President Clinton and confirmed by the United States Senate as a federal judge for the District of Minnesota.   In the late 1990s, he served as chair of the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB), which oversaw the declassification of government documents related to the assassination of President John F.

Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act), Congress responded to public outrage at the withholding of so many government records.…

Some “hard lessons” from the Boston bombing

by Jim Fetzer “The FBI has built a massive network of spies to prevent another domestic attack. But are they busting terrorist plots—or leading them?”—Trevor Aaronson       The Boston bombing patsies In a performance that would have made the Marx Brothers proud, DHS and the FBI managed to turn themselves in an international joke with their amateurish “false flag” attack in Boston during the marathon.  The alternative media, such as Citizens for Legitimate Government (CLG) and Whatreallyhappened.com, were far ahead of the “official” investigation and had already turned up…
