The government is beginning to sound like
the boy who cried wolf. First it was Bradley Manning and his leaks
which damaged national security. Those leaks occurred in 2010 and we’ve
yet to see how in any way they’ve damaged our national security.
Over 500 hundred people have died in Iraq
just this month alone. Seems that’s more damaging to national security
than Bradley Manning, who, by the way leaked documents showing the
number of people killed in Iraq is greater than what the government is
reporting. We’ve been here before, the Pentagon Papers proved that what
the government knew and what they were telling the country about what
was going on in Vietnam, were two different things.
Now they’re saying the same thing about
Edward Snowden and his leaks telling of government collection and
storage of data, they say the leaks are a great threat to our national
security.
