(Untitled) Nov 5th 2013, 23:22, by noreply@blogger.com (Cliff Küle) A Warning Came 38 years Ago OOB - Outside Our Box The Church Committee was the Senate Committee to Study Government with Respect to Intelligence Activities. It was set up in 1975 after the Watergate affair had revealed constitutionally criminal activities from the CIA, NSA & FBI. It should have brought reform ASAP (or at least PDQ) to the USA, but things were allowed to develop on the QT until our modern SNAFU. Eric Margolis fits a profile we have mentioned many times before. The strongest critics of the 'system' are those who believed in it, supported it & tried to help it. Margolis is a Canadian that went to Vietnam as a soldier to support the U.S. fight for freedom! He was invited in 1975 to join the U.S. Senate's Church Committee on the Watergate scandals, but refused because he was a staunch supporter of Richard Nixon! He sees the world very differently now .. U.S. Senator Frank Church issued a warning: "If this government ever became a tyrant .. the technological capacity that the intelligence community has given the government could enable it to impose total tyranny. There would be no way to fight back because the most careful effort to combine together in resistance to the government, no matter how privately it was done, is within the reach of the government to know." .. Margolis sees similarity between America's post-September 11 hysteria that produced the Patriot Act & Germany's frenzy after the burning  down of the Reichstag in 1933. "In both cases, civil rights were swept away to fight 'terrorism.' President George W. Bush doubled the size and budget of America's Intelligence State .. Today America's intelligence establishment has been trying to excuse its malfeasance by the old 'everyone else does it' adage. Untrue. No other nation .. so thoroughly sifts through the world's communications, bugs key leaders, targets individuals for assassination by drones or special forces and stores every word its citizens ever sent .. no other case where the spy agencies are so uncontrolled. The U.S. claims 'exceptionalism,' so it should be setting a good example." LINK HERE to the essay
