Wikileaks and Government Control of the Internet

WIKILEAKS AND GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF THE INTERNET
9/18/11

A major question regarding a government conspiracy is in the unauthorized release of hundreds of thousands of classified documents by Wikileaks. The international controversy surrounding the leak of these classified Pentagon and State Dept memos is being made out by the Main Stream Media in the U.S as a great embarrassment and threat to national security. As this story unfolds in the year 2011, it will be interesting to see how compromised the U.S operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan really are. As I have tried to prove throughout this book, nothing of any great political magnitude that would harm the national security or foreign policy of the U.S can possibly be released to the public without the CIA, FBI and White House authorizing it. No one in the Main Stream Media or on the internet could leak such sensitive information without being discovered and censored. Controversial websites are constantly being attacked or removed from the Web. For anyone to believe today that the U.S Government would tolerate the release of hundreds of thousands of secret and top secret documents is absolutely absurd. The ridiculous idea of a Gay PFC with no security clearances, hacking into the most secure computer system on the planet, because he was angry at the Military’s “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” policy being reinstated is beyond the pale of reason. In this fantastic tale of national insecurity I am reminded of a famous quote that seems to be the mainstay of the U.S Governments ideology especially in the 21st century.

“..in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted, they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Adolf Hitler, Main Kampf

In early 2010 the first Wikileaks were made public and virtually nothing happened or was reported to have happened by the release of the first thousands of classified documents. It turned out that the news media virtually ignored the documents because the information had already been released by Seymour Hersh in the New Yorker, and other reporters who disclosed the “great” secrets of the Bush Administration and corruption of the Iraqis and Afghan governments. Releasing old reports on past military operations is old news and irrelevant to the current conflicts. All the information so far released has been of little consequence to the ongoing wars. The only effect these leaked documents will have on the American people is to create a greater censorship of the internet, and increase spying on individuals through email and social networks. Also the most sensitive disclosures were from the Arab leaders condemning Iran and urging the U.S to attack Iran.(which is exactly what the U.S and Israel want). The New York Times recently stated that they had asked the Government authorities to check anything they released of the Wikileak documents and the Government approved their reports, so much for the credibility of the New York Times. Regarding the credibility of the major U.S news papers and magazines and networks please note the following quotes from former CIA directors William Colby and William Casey and Chairman of the Trilateral Commission David Rockefeller regarding their control of the media and the collusion of the news media with the global elite.

“The CIA owns everyone of any significance in the major media.” William Colby former Director of the CIA

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected the promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world-government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the National auto determination practiced in past centuries.” — David Rockefeller in an address to a Trilateral Commission meeting in June of 1991

“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” — William Casey, CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)

“Look, if you think any American official is going to tell you the truth, then you’re stupid. Did you hear that? – Stupid.” Arthur Sylvester, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs, 1965

I believe the time has come for all who still believe in their government and those who run it, to reevaluate their opinions, especially of the U.S main stream media. As U.S newspapers and television networks reduce their news staffs and close their foreign offices, less news becomes available to the U.S public. The U.S has one of the most censored news media in the world as stated in a 2008 poll of 1000 independent journalists from around the world, which rated the U.S news media as 23rd out of the top 100 countries for most censored, Saudi Arabia was 24th. In recent response to the Wikileaks disclosures 19 U.S senators voted to censor the internet. The following is a list of the senators provided by Truthdirt.com, The 19 Senators who voted to censor the internet. Personally I was surprised at some of the “Progressive liberal” senators on this list. Joseph Lieberman the Senate Chairman for Home Land Security committee stated he wanted to have the same control China has on the internet.

This is hardly a surprise but, this morning (as previously announced), the lame duck Senate Judiciary Committee unanimously voted to move forward with censoring the internet via the COICA bill — despite a bunch of law professors explaining to them how this law is a clear violation of the First Amendment. What’s really amazing is that many of the same Senators have been speaking out against internet censorship in other countries, yet they happily vote to approve it here because it’s seen as a way to make many of their largest campaign contributors happy. There’s very little chance that the bill will actually get passed by the end of the term but, in the meantime, we figured it might be useful to highlight the 19 Senators who voted to censor the internet this morning: Patrick J. Leahy  Vermont ,Herb Kohl  Wisconsin, Jeff Sessions  Alabama, Dianne Feinstein  California, Orrin G. Hatch  Utah, Russ Feingold  Wisconsin, Chuck Grassley  Iowa, Arlen Specter  Pennsylvania, Jon Kyl  Arizona, Chuck Schumer — New York, Lindsey Graham — South Carolina, Dick Durbin  Illinois, John Cornyn — Texas ,Benjamin L. Cardin Maryland, Tom Coburn  Oklahoma, Sheldon Whitehouse — Rhode Island, Amy Klobuchar — Minnesota , Al Franken — Minnesota ,Chris Coons  Delaware

Note the “Progressive Liberal Democrats” who voted for internet censorship. Of all the “Lying Liars” Sen. Al Frankin, formerly of Saturday Night Live fame and Mr. Liberal himself Russ Feingold(before he lost his election.) The hypocrisy of the Progressive Democrats is even more pathetic than the stupidity of the Tea Party Republicans.
