what communication companies ARENT wiretapping at this point?? and if they are any remaining, they probably will be soon

i hope that no one thinks that obama will change any of this, or even will have the power to

[gl0bal74]

we need to WAKE UP. This is neither lawful or even necessary.

Why dont they use these extensive resources to catch bin Laden? Why are they spying on us?

oh yeah, thats right the GWOT is a sham that has been used to take the power from the people

PROPAGANDA!

You're right, Israel shouldn't be trusted... We should instead trust Hezbollah, or Ayatollah Khomeini... WOW! I just love idiots who post crap they have no Earthly idea about... Israel has and always WILL BE one of America's strongest allies. All the lies and spun conspiracies doesn't change the truth.. it just makes you look foolish!!!

[BONZAII42]

That's interesting... Which history book were you reading?? Most wars that have taken place since 1812 have been over opposing ideology and FAILURE of diplomacy to actually be effective.

This conspiracy theory that somewhere at the top of the food chain is these families pulling the strings is that ridiculous nonsense that all lunatics try to spread.

James Bamford is a Liberal Chronie and will always be the PUPPET with a PENCIL!!

[BONZAII42]

Anyone who knows anything about James Bamford knows that he is a simpleton Liberal prick with an agenda to always make Conservatives look bad and Democrats look great. If you want to see really BENT journalism, just look at the article he wrote about the Secret Service chronicles that described what they thought about all the previous presidents!!

go to washington post's website and do a search for this exact title... James Bamford Reviews Ronald Kessler's 'In the President's Secret Service'

[Austerity Measures]

All wars from 1812 up have been instigated by a few top families. This information is easily found to be true. They play all sides against the middle. The MIC is just one of the heads of this hydra..

I know, I know, 9-11 was committed by Alien Elvis impersonators!!!!!

[Austerity Measures]

Seems we'd do a real investigation into the matter then, wouldn't we? Rather than reacting and running scared?

When a real investigation is opened into 9/11, then we're getting somewhere. But that'll never happen. Wanna stop planes from crashing into buildings? Stop the Military Industrial Complex.

[RachelDerGolem]

Because Americans are trying to stop more people from crashing planes into tall buildings!!!!

Im sorry I just got back from Mars, let me get this right....a Saudi born Muslim cleric in a cave tells some of his buddys to crash some planes into buildings and our governments response is, tap every phone, read every email and tweet, data mine google and facebook, naked body scanners and physical touching of children and the elderly at the airport, turning the local police into the military, civil rights gone, bill of rights gone......did i miss anything
