Brilliant woman. But this was 2003. and nothing changed since then. Does the rest of the world has to wait for Empire to cave in.. or ppl like Amy will succeed on mission impossible? I dont see how this tumor could be cured, as I believe it would rather stage another 9/11 then abandon well paid, fed and censored media.

I know this info seems overwhelming, but as each person is exposed to a voice of truth we become respondsible. Respondsible. Respondsible. To that means I must RESPOND in some way. If only one at a time we begin to come out of the dark, that is better than none at all.
