Redacted Tonight #77 – Drone Pilot Whistleblowers Persecuted, Walmart Working With FBI, & More…
“Right now we have the executive branch making a claim that it has the right to kill anyone, anywhere on Earth, at any time, for secret reasons based on secret evidence, in a secret process, undertaken by unidentified officials.”
ROSA BROOKS, GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY LAW SCHOOL PROFESSOR
We condemn our enemies in the War on Terrorism while at the same time perpetuating this kind of state-sponsored terrorism. Not only hypocrisy, it’s also murder. And it’s murder that’s being committed by the Military-industrial Complex for profit and only for profit, because we have no other interest in foreign conflicts except to enrich war profiteers like Northrup-Grumman.
If a drone from a foreign country flew into the United States and fired a missile that blew up a vehicle or house, there would be worldwide outrage, but when the U.S. does it in Pakistan or wherever, well, the car or house we bomb is a legitimate target. Somehow we are allowed to do these horrible things because of American exceptionalism, we’re the world’s only superpower, so screw everyone else, we don’t have to follow the world’s rules, and if we want to fly our equipment into some foreign country and kill someone, we reserve the right to do it.
