“We live under a governmental system in which the president, the military, the CIA, and the NSA now wield powers that the greatest dictators in history have wielded. The powers to assassinate people, to indefinitely detain people without due process or trial by jury, to kidnap and rendition people, to torture people, to subject people to LSD experiments, to invade and occupy foreign countries, to support coups in foreign lands, to install, train, maintain, and support brutal dictatorial regimes, to spy on and monitor the activities of people everywhere. In other words, the dark type of things that Americans used to complain that communist or totalitarian regimes were engaged in.”

“Twelve years ago – when the ‘homeland’ was first invented (a smooth adaptation of Hitler’s ‘fatherland’) and TSA agents began frisking grandmothers – the whole thing seemed like a joke. It looked as though America’s leaders had gotten themselves into a hysterical panic. They thought al-Qaida really existed… that there were terrorist sleeper cells in every hamlet and burg… and that these infiltrators were about to wreak havoc on the nation. It was a preposterous lie, but we figured they’d come to their senses soon. Instead of coming to their senses, America’s leaders began to see the advantage of a war that could neither be won nor lost.”
