  "Love it or hate it, the US is at (something)..."
  
  WTF do you mean by this statement, other then to justify:
  
  "...and the enemy is more than willing to take advantage if the US backs down or decides to go lax on security."
  
  You are repeating the same (lame) excuses used by the officials in the article...
  
  ...oh wait, I remember who you're pandering for now.

  Re:

  JEH
  
  Name of a female demon in a small number of Zoroastrian Middle Persian texts. The name of Jeh is commonly, but with little justification, translated as “whore.” It is the Middle Persian rendering of Avestan jahī- (or jahikā-). That word is used in a number of different meanings, but it appears to have originally meant “woman” and can still be recognized in this meaning in many Avestan passages...

  If sales support "It", then "It" is what you sell.

  Re: Better to assume forgiveness...

  The "left" in the US is only slightly left of right.
  
  In other words there really is no "left" in America any more.
  
  Obama's administration so closely mimics the war-mongering Bush administration politics that there is really no difference.
  
  Time for a third (fourth, fifth...) Party.

  Re: Re: What about the rest of the world?

  "Iraq was a war of agression, which is supposed to be the worst kind of violation of international law. The only people who care about these things are those "terrorists"."
  
  Could not agree more.
  
  "The CIA has been torturing and raping kids to death for many decades, noone cares."

  But who actually cares? (Rhetorical)
  
  "The government lies every single day, yet some people still have faith in them and expect them to do what they promised."

  But, what do you propose to change this?

  A trial heard under the conditions of the Espionage Act is closer to a military trial than it is to a trial heard under the conditions guaranteed (proposed? /s?) by the 6th Amendment.

• On the post: Michael Hayden Gleefully Admits: We Kill People Based On Metadata

  

  BeeAitch ( profile ), 12 May, 2014 @ 05:09pm

  Re:

  "Metadata doesn't reveal anything"
  
  "We use metadata to select targets for drone strikes"
  
  I was wondering if someone was going to catch this.
  
  All along we the people have been told that metadata doesn't reveal enough about any specific person for the collection of said data to be a privacy concern.
  
  Now we are told that metadata reveals enough about a specific person for them to be killed remotely.
  
  The cognitive dissonance astounds me.
