US spy chief Clapper defends Prism and phone surveillance

[Peter Lemkin]

Oh, so it is the revelation of the massive government spy programme that Orwell could only dream of that is reprehensible not the daily and ongoing massive Orwellian spying programme itself.

Would be funny, were it not some of the last nails in America's coffin as a Democratic State under Rule of Law with Rights and Freedoms. Stalin or Hitler and their ilk would have given anything for a system like this....and would have also punished only the disclosure of it. If this doesn't start riots, I give up on my countrypersons and they get what they didn't fight against. While most of us here on this Forum have long known that exactly this was going on, now the government admits it and the reaction......underwhelming IMHO.

Puts the Stasi to shame. Where are all those people who used to write about them? Why are't they doing it now?

911 changed everything [along with the PRE-written and ready to go unPatriot Act]! The greatest false-flag op and psyop ever! So many 'buy' the Big Lies of the need for a 'war on terror' and all the 'sacrifices' needed to achieve 'victory - [i.e. no more freedoms, democracy, privacy, rights, rule of law, civil authority....et al.] - they have caved in to the FASCISM and the LIES. I begin to loose hope for my beloved Country...as the Sheeple don't even bleat, let alone rebel!
