Most of the audience of about 70 were peace activists who, as is usual at such events, were joined by a motley collection of conspiracy theorists who believe 9/11 was an inside job or that former Sen. Paul Wellstone, who died in a plane crash, was assassinated. Scahill and Swanson provided a litany of disturbing statistics that illustrated how corporations control all systems of power.
Left-gatekeeper alert, left-gatekeeper alert...
So, let me see if I have this aright: Hedges cares very much about the victims of America's most recent outburst of global exterminism, but cares not a jot about the pretext for said assault?
I confess, I'm having trouble believing him.
Thank goodness, however, for those compelling statistics from Scahill and Swanson - that'll rouse the public from its apathy, no question.
"There are three sorts of conspiracy: by the people who complain, by the people who write, by the people who take action. There is nothing to fear from the first group, the two others are more dangerous; but the police have to be part of all three,"
