Let’s see.  Russia warned US intelligence, twice, both before and AFTER his trip to Dagestan in 2012 that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a terrorist.  Saudi Arabia warned the United States at least once.  The FBI even interviewed Tamerlan, the alleged mad bomber, and his family.  Then for some cloudy, unexplained reason shrouded in mystery and deception, the FBI failed to keep track of Tamerlan when he returned from Chechnya and Dagestan, a known hotbed of Islamic radicalism where car bombs explode on a regular basis.

A casual internet search would have turned up the most radical Jihadist videos and pronouncements, and Tamerlan made himself persona non grata at his local Mosque as well.  His radical outbursts got him booted from the Mosque for being too nuts.

Oh, but FBI never heard of “the suspects” before, and needed to enlist the public’s help to identify them from photographs.

On the other hand, in the case of that terrorist fiend Julian Assange of the “terrorist website” Wikileaks, it’s a different matter altogether.

“At least a dozen American governmental agencies, including the Pentagon, the FBI, the Army’s Criminal Investigative Department, the Department of Justice, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the Diplomatic Security Service, are assigned to the WikiLeaks case, while the CIA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence are assigned to track down WikiLeaks’ supposed breaches of security. The global assault—which saw Australia threaten to revoke Assange’s passport—is part of the terrifying metamorphosis of the “war on terror” into a wider war on civil liberties. It has become a hunt not for actual terrorists but a hunt for all those with the ability to expose the mounting crimes of the power elite.”

This is a great opportunity to tell the Obama regime what you really think.

Nominate Bradley Manning for The Presidential Citizen’s Medal!

My own submission:

Bradley Manning is a whistleblower who exposed criminal activity within the military and within the US State Department. He should be immediately pardoned and his information investigated for criminal charges against those who committed war crimes in Iraq and elsewhere. In addition, this medal would signal the restoration of the rule of law and constitutional government, which is not in evidence today.

 

Bradley Manning is considered a hero across the world and throughout much of hte United States for his bravery and commitment to the truth and to the rule of law.

 

Notice:

Nominate Bradley Manning for The Presidential Citizen’s Medal!

http://www.whitehouse.gov/citizensmedal/submit-a-nomination

For immediate release- let’s make this viral! We have until March 31st. Spread this far and wide!

Nominate Bradley Manning for The Presidential Citizen’s Medal!

Info you’ll need to complete the form:
● Bradley Manning
● Born in Crescent, OK
● Age 25 years
● Was this nominee’s service performed outside of his or her regular job: (you must check “YES” for Bradley Manning to be considered.)
● You’ll be asked to explain why he should receive the medal. here is a sample:

Faced with the choice to stay silent about war crimes committed by the US government (the easy choice, the coward’s choice), or to become a whistleblower and tell the truth (the difficult choice, the brave choice), Bradley Manning chose the path of integrity and honor and truth. No other citizen in the US has done more than Bradley Manning to bring forth the truth, to try to restore dignity and honor to the US. Rather than having been hailed as the hero he is, he has been imprisoned for more than 1000 days, many of which were in conditions the UN Rappatuer called “torture.”

● You’ll be asked what impact his actions have had on the community. Here is a sample:

The US military can hold Bradley Manning up as an example of bravery in service to country, and the most deadly era of the US imperialist invasion into Iraq was deescalated – making Iraq and the US safer. That is, Bradley Manning had positive impacts not only within the national community (US citizens), but on the international community as well.

Sign the Petition for Manning to Win the Next Nobel Peace Prize

Pressure the Nobel Committee, who have in years past awarded their prize to war criminal monsters like Henry Kissinger, and uh, who’s that other one?  Oh, Barack Obama, who is currently responsible for the torture and persecution of whistleblower Bradley Manning.

 

Bradley Manning’s Nobel Peace Prize

Whistleblower Bradley Manning has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, and he should receive it.

No individual has done more to push back against what Martin Luther King Jr. called “the madness of militarism” than Bradley Manning. And right now, remaining in prison and facing relentless prosecution by the U.S. government, no one is more in need of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Alfred Nobel’s will left funding for a prize to be awarded to “the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.”

The intent of the prize was to fund this work. As a result of enormous legal expenses, Bradley Manning is in need of that funding.

Please sign this petition to the Norwegian Nobel Committee.

I urge you to award the peace prize to Bradley Manning.

A so-called judge ruled that Pvt. Manning could be tortured and detained for over 1,000 days, and this now counts as a “speedy trial.”

“On PFC Bradley Manning’s 1,005th day in prison without trial, military judge Denise Lind ruled that the government has not deprived him of his due process right to a speedy trial. Rules for court martial require the military to arraign defendants within 120 days, and more than 600 passed before prosecutors arraigned Bradley” -FreeBradleyManning

The US Constitution, Bill of Rights, Amendment 6:

“In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence”

Obama’s Military Industrial Complex burning of the Constitution is in court. Due process and restraints on government power are now a thing of the past unless this suit can prevail:

 

“An independent journalist would be one approved by the armed forces.”

 

Julian Assange Oxford Union address

Julian Assange calls out the new Dreamworks Wikileaks movie: The Fifth Estate.

“It is a lie upon lie. … “The movie is a massive propaganda attack on WikiLeaks and the character of my staff.”

Someone apparently leaked a copy of the script to Assange – Deadline Story.

Julian Assange:  Two Years of Cablegate as Bradley Manning Testifies for the First Time

…Victims and their families struggle to have their stories acknowledged, and the U.S.’ systematic avoidance of accountability for war crimes implicitly denies their right to be considered human beings…

The Iraq War Logs also showed how the United States handed over prisoners to be tortured in gruesome detail — stories of electrocution, mutilation and of victims being attacked with drills…

The Red Cross report estimated that 89 of the dead and 13 injured were in fact civilians. Neither the U.S. government nor the Red Cross publicly revealed these figures…

In reality, the cables show that torture and killing are not isolated events, but the violent manifestations of an aggressive policy of coercion used by the United States in the pursuit of its strategic commercial and political goals around the world…

Assange defends Wikileaks, Bradley Manning.  Calls out torture and war crimes, no matter who the perpetrator happens to be.

YOU ARE UNDER SURVEILLANCE

This post is not about the Hollywoodized version of government abuse, Enemy of the State.  There, the problem is limited to a handful of insiders who abuse their power.  Sorry.  Reality is much, much worse:

“God Bless America. Now they have EVERY major HVT in CONUS, the UK, Canada, Vegas, Los Angeles, NYC as clients.”
-Fred Burton of STRATFOR, via WIKILEAKS

Who are “they” and is God really appreciative?

“They” go by the handle ABRAXAS CORPORATION, and you can bet that I’m on their radar now simply for typing this and visiting their website.

“Abraxas has one focus – Risk Mitigation technology for the National Security community”

What about the rest of us?  What is our risk in empowering unaccountable privatized surveillance corporations connected to the “National Security community”–  who are not accountable to the public – or to oversight by anybody?

Abraxas, the god, has some creepy origination mumbo jumbo that might freak out some.  But Abraxas, the corporation, is what we should be concerned with here.  Ex-CIA and military surveillance experts have used that wonderful entrepreneurial spirit to track and surveil you, all at government expense.  They track, analyze, collate data about faces and license plate numbers at the “HVT” high value targets, according to them, which could essentially be… anywhere.  ”High value” is in the eye of the beholder, after all, and  any landmark, building or park will suffice.

RT (Russia Today) has the story.  And the program is called “TrapWire.”

“The beauty of it is that we can protect an infinite number of facilities just as efficiently as we can one and we push information out to local law authorities automatically.”
-Richard “Hollis” Helms, founder of Abraxas Corp.

 

YOU ARE UNDER SURVEILLANCE

A malicious new hacking group called “AntiLeaks” is right now attacking WikiLieaks in an attempt to shut down this story.  Wonder who they trace back to?

For the insiders and “law enforcement” (sic?) out there on the net, you can actually visit the “TrapWire” website.  Here is the current version of that home page:

“TrapWire is a unique, predictive software system designed to detect patterns indicative of terrorist attacks or criminal operations. Utilizing a proprietary, rules-based engine, TrapWire detects, analyzes and alerts on suspicious events as they are collected over periods of time and across multiple locations. Through the systematic capture of these pre-attack indicators, terrorist or criminal surveillance and pre-attack planning operations can be identified — and appropriate law enforcement counter measures employed ahead of the attack. As such, our clients are provided with the ability to prevent the terrorist or criminal event, rather than simply mitigate damage or loss of life.

The TrapWire system includes a variety of features and components that are configured and delivered based on the specific needs of the customer organization and its end users. There are currently three different TrapWire systems available for public and private sector clients:
TW-CI (TrapWire Critical Infrastructure) focuses on the identification of pre-operational surveillance activities occurring around specific sites within the TrapWire Network
TW-CM (TrapWire Community Member) supports the online reporting of suspicious behavior by community members, such as the iWatch programs in Los Angeles and Washington DC, and See Something Say Something in Las Vegas and New York
TW-LE (TrapWire Law Enforcement) provides the ability to gather, analyze and disseminate information about surveillance and logistical activities occurring across an entire geographic region, including information gathered via TW CI and TW CM deployments”

The Anonymous entity has a new so-called project for 2012, but should we trust these people? Are they infiltrated? Are they a front? No one knows, as they are themselves what they tell us to despise: secret.

Anonymous: Project Mayhem 2012 // Call to Action – Code TYLER!

They have a new project for 2012, but this project looks a lot like Wikileaks, which already exists, and is pretty much proven to be bonafide in exposing official crimes. Anonymous seems to be competing and calling for a new wave of leaks to come into something it is building, supposedly for the purpose of protecting the anonymity of the uploaders. False sense of security ploy?

This video by Anonymous, which is completely couched in pop culture references and irrelevant quotes, appears to be creating a new Wikileaks type infrastructure, under their control.

I know if I had sensitive data to upload, I wouldn’t trust “Anonymous” to maintain my secrecy, but would actually be anonymous, from a different computer and network.

If one clicks over to the discussions about this “Tyler” project, there is no useful information and a lot of gibberish and quotations that I suppose are to make the discussion look hip or deep. They have the reverse effect, though, of making it look contrived and a marketing scam. The Anonymous videos appear to be more marketing than substance, promoting brand Anonymous rather than informing anyone about anything important. The whole undertaking seems suspicious at best.

While Anonymous targeted a few bad apples, to gain some level of street-cred, they cannot be said to be a truly independent organization with goals removed from US intelligence. Their targets in the middle east during the long-planned “Arab Spring” aligned exactly with NATO and covert US operations. That is highly troubling, and buyer beware.

P.S.

You can’t make this shit up. Amid all the disjointed quotations on their Tyler project, they nakedly promote Obama as some sort of defender of whistleblowers, linking directly to the Obama campaign website!!!

It hasn’t occurred to them, I supposed, that Obama has been the worst president in history at persecuting whistleblowers, not protecting them!

Says “Anonymous”:

“In other words, we would like to help Mr. Obama to fulfill his promises
and to make them extensible to the whole of society. World. Wide.
____________________________________________________________________

Protect Whistleblowers:

“Often the best source of information about waste, fraud, and abuse in

government is an existing government employee committed to public

integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism,

which can sometimes save lives and often save taxpayer dollars, should

be encouraged rather than stifled. We need to empower federal employees

as watchdogs of wrongdoing and partners in performance. Barack Obama

will strengthen whistleblower laws to protect federal workers who expose

waste, fraud, and abuse of authority in government. Obama will ensure

that federal agencies expedite the process for reviewing whistleblower

claims and whistleblowers have full access to courts and due process.”

Now that Assange has lost his court battle fighting extradition, we may lose this valuable asset in the fight for freedom and truth globally. The charges brought by Sweden against Assange appear to be bogus, trumped up, and politically motivated in the extreme. This is a direct assault on whistleblowers and those who expose official crimes.

Rafael Correa, the current president of Ecuador, gives a brisk defense of Assange’s activities and the value of Wikileaks during the interview.
