Bob Charles has had it - Read all About things he has been saying for 7 YEARS " WAKE UP AMERICA"
10 reasons the U.S. is no longer the land of the free
Even as we pass judgment on countries we consider unfree, Americans remain confident that any definition of a free nation must include their own — the land of free. Yet, the laws and practices of the land should shake that confidence. In the decade since Sept. 11, 2001, this country has comprehensively reduced civil liberties in the name of an expanded security state. The most recent example of this was the National Defense Authorization Act, signed Dec. 31, which allows for the indefinite detention of citizens. At what point does the reduction of individual rights in our country change how we define ourselves?
While each new national security power Washington has embraced was controversial when enacted, they are often discussed in isolation. But they don’t operate in isolation. They form a mosaic of powers under which our country could be considered, at least in part, authoritarian. Americans often proclaim our nation as a symbol of freedom to the world while dismissing nations such as Cuba and China as categorically unfree. Yet, objectively, we may be only half right. Those countries do lack basic individual rights such as due process, placing them outside any reasonable definition of “free,” but the United States now has much more in common with such regimes than anyone may like to admit.
The story must be told.
Your subscription supports journalism that matters.
The list of powers acquired by the U.S. government since 9/11 puts us in rather troubling company.
Assassination of U.S. citizens
President Obama has claimed, as President George W. Bush did before him, the right to order the killing of any citizen considered a terrorist or an abettor of terrorism. Last year, he approved the killing of U.S. citizen Anwar al-Awlaqi
and another citizen under this claimed inherent authority. Last month,
administration officials affirmed that power, stating that the president can order the assassination
of any citizen whom he considers allied with terrorists. (Nations such
as Nigeria, Iran and Syria have been routinely criticized for
extrajudicial killings of enemies of the state.)
Indefinite detention
Under
the law signed last month, terrorism suspects are to be held by the
military; the president also has the authority to indefinitely detain
citizens accused of terrorism. While the administration claims that this
provision only codified existing law, experts widely contest this view,
and the administration has opposed efforts to challenge such authority
in federal courts. The government continues to claim the right to strip
citizens of legal protections based on its sole discretion. (China
recently codified a more limited detention law for its citizens, while
countries such as Cambodia have been singled out by the United States
for “prolonged detention.”)
Arbitrary justice
The
president now decides whether a person will receive a trial in the
federal courts or in a military tribunal, a system that has been
ridiculed around the world for lacking basic due process protections.
Bush claimed this authority in 2001, and Obama has continued the
practice. (Egypt and China have been denounced for maintaining separate
military justice systems for selected defendants, including civilians.)
Warrantless searches
The
president may now order warrantless surveillance, including a new
capability to force companies and organizations to turn over information
on citizens’ finances, communications and associations. Bush acquired
this sweeping power under the Patriot Act in 2001, and in 2011, Obama extended the power, including searches of everything from business documents to library records. The government can use “national security letters”
to demand, without probable cause, that organizations turn over
information on citizens — and order them not to reveal the disclosure to
the affected party. (Saudi Arabia and Pakistan operate under laws that
allow the government to engage in widespread discretionary
surveillance.)
Secret evidence
The
government now routinely uses secret evidence to detain individuals and
employs secret evidence in federal and military courts. It also forces
the dismissal of cases against the United States by simply filing
declarations that the cases would make the government reveal classified
information that would harm national security — a claim made in a
variety of privacy lawsuits and largely accepted by federal judges
without question. Even legal opinions, cited as the basis for the
government’s actions under the Bush and Obama administrations, have been
classified. This allows the government to claim secret legal arguments
to support secret proceedings using secret evidence. In addition, some
cases never make it to court at all. The federal courts routinely deny
constitutional challenges to policies and programs under a narrow
definition of standing to bring a case.
War crimes
The world clamored for prosecutions of those responsible for waterboarding terrorism suspects during the Bush administration, but the Obama administration said in 2009
that it would not allow CIA employees to be investigated or prosecuted
for such actions. This gutted not just treaty obligations but the
Nuremberg principles of international law. When courts in countries such
as Spain moved to investigate Bush officials for war crimes, the Obama
administration reportedly urged foreign officials not to allow such
cases to proceed, despite the fact that the United States has long
claimed the same authority with regard to alleged war criminals in other
countries. (Various nations have resisted investigations of officials
accused of war crimes and torture. Some, such as Serbia and Chile,
eventually relented to comply with international law; countries that
have denied independent investigations include Iran, Syria and China.)
Secret court
The
government has increased its use of the secret Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Court, which has expanded its secret warrants to include
individuals deemed to be aiding or abetting hostile foreign governments
or organizations. In 2011, Obama renewed these powers, including
allowing secret searches of individuals who are not part of an
identifiable terrorist group. The administration has asserted the right
to ignore congressional limits on such surveillance. (Pakistan places
national security surveillance under the unchecked powers of the
military or intelligence services.)
Immunity from judicial review
Like
the Bush administration, the Obama administration has successfully
pushed for immunity for companies that assist in warrantless
surveillance of citizens, blocking the ability of citizens to challenge
the violation of privacy. (Similarly, China has maintained sweeping
immunity claims both inside and outside the country and routinely blocks
lawsuits against private companies.)
Continual monitoring of citizens
The Obama administration has successfully defended its claim that it can use GPS devices to
monitor every move of targeted citizens without securing any court
order or review. (Saudi Arabia has installed massive public surveillance
systems, while Cuba is notorious for active monitoring of selected
citizens.)
Extraordinary renditions
The
government now has the ability to transfer both citizens and
noncitizens to another country under a system known as extraordinary
rendition, which has been denounced as using other countries, such as
Syria, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Pakistan, to torture suspects. The Obama
administration says it is not continuing the abuses of this practice
under Bush, but it insists on the unfettered right to order such
transfers — including the possible transfer of U.S. citizens.These new laws have come with an infusion of money into an expanded security system on the state and federal levels, including more public surveillance cameras, tens of thousands of security personnel and a massive expansion of a terrorist-chasing bureaucracy.
Some politicians shrug and say these increased powers are merely a response to the times we live in. Thus, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) could declare in an interview last spring without objection that “free speech is a great idea, but we’re in a war.” Of course, terrorism will never “surrender” and end this particular “war.”
Other politicians rationalize that, while such powers may exist, it really comes down to how they are used. This is a common response by liberals who cannot bring themselves to denounce Obama as they did Bush. Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), for instance, has insisted that Congress is not making any decision on indefinite detention: “That is a decision which we leave where it belongs — in the executive branch.”
And in a signing statement with the defense authorization bill, Obama said he does not intend to use the latest power to indefinitely imprison citizens. Yet, he still accepted the power as a sort of regretful autocrat.
An authoritarian nation is defined not just by the use of authoritarian powers, but by the ability to use them. If a president can take away your freedom or your life on his own authority, all rights become little more than a discretionary grant subject to executive will.
The framers lived under autocratic rule and understood this danger better than we do. James Madison famously warned that we needed a system that did not depend on the good intentions or motivations of our rulers: “If men were angels, no government would be necessary.”
Benjamin Franklin was more direct. In 1787, a Mrs. Powel confronted Franklin after the signing of the Constitution and asked, “Well, Doctor, what have we got — a republic or a monarchy?” His response was a bit chilling: “A republic, Madam, if you can keep it.”
Since 9/11, we have created the very government the framers feared: a government with sweeping and largely unchecked powers resting on the hope that they will be used wisely.
The indefinite-detention provision in the defense authorization bill seemed to many civil libertarians like a betrayal by Obama. While the president had promised to veto the law over that provision, Levin, a sponsor of the bill, disclosed on the Senate floor that it was in fact the White House that approved the removal of any exception for citizens from indefinite detention.
Dishonesty from politicians is nothing new for Americans. The real question is whether we are lying to ourselves when we call this country the land of the free.

RENOWNED PARANORMAL EXPERT NICK REDFERN TACKLES ROSWELL UFO CONSPIRACY IN NEW BOOK JUST IN TIME FOR ITS 70TH ANNIVERSARY
(Bracey, VA – May 2, 2017) Following the success of his book, Body Snatchers in the Desert, author, journalist and paranormal pundit, Nick Redfern continues to unleash his signature brand of ripping off the lid and delving into controversial topics with his latest release, The Roswell UFO Conspiracy: Exposing A Shocking and Sinister Secret.
Dubbed “Ufology’s Public Enemy #1,” Redfern refuses to stray from his ideology and locks in believers and non-believers alike from beginning to end, encouraging them to draw their own conclusions to what occurred.
Book Synopsis
In early July 1947, something crashed outside of Roswell, New Mexico. It was not an alien spaceship, as so many believe. Rather, it was one of a handful of definitively military vehicles that were secretly test-flown in various parts of the Land of Enchantment. All of the flights ended in disaster, and particularly so for the people who were on-board the craft. Cover-stories concerning wrecked flying saucers and dead aliens were carefully created. The stories were then spread by those tasked with hiding the dark truth. The far more disturbing picture of what really happened near Roswell was cloaked for years. In fact, for decades. Until now…
To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Roswell UFO controversy, Redfern will be a featured guest speaker at the Roswell UFO Festival June 29- July 2, 2017.
The Roswell UFO Conspiracy: Exposing A Shocking and Sinister Secret is available now on Amazon.com in paperback and on Kindle.
