Topic: Only 10 people in American history | |
---|---|
Only 10 people in American history have been charged with espionage for leaking classified information, 7 under Obama. "This policy decision smacks of modern-day McCarthyism. Washington has always needed an "ism" to fight against, an idea against which it could rally its citizens like lemmings. First, it was anarchism, then socialism, then communism. Now, it's terrorism. Any whistleblower who goes public in the name of protecting human rights or civil liberties is accused of helping the terrorists." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDwf8GAh8e4&feature=youtu.be http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/aug/06/obama-abuse-espionage-act-mccarthyism |
