Leaks from a Drone Program Whistleblower – Highlights from the Intercept’s Blockbuster Investigation

Besides sharing my own personal insight into the goings on in this crazy world we live in, the other primary purpose of Liberty Blitzkrieg is to highlight certain stories that readers may have missed or overlooked while dealing with all the ins and outs of everyday life.

In a perfect world, every American would read the eight articles that comprise the Intercept’s drone investigation published earlier today. Unfortunately, this is simply never going to happen. As such, I went ahead and read them, and what follows are some particularly juicy excerpts that will hopefully inspire readers to investigate further.

The reason I think these articles are so important, is not because they are based on intel leaked by an additional whistleblower (i.e., not Snowden), but because you can’t read the information without concluding quite simply that the U.S. empire is completely and totally out of control. That the plethora of American military adventures overseas are not only not making us safer, but are in fact making us far more vulnerable.

This information will be presented by providing the title of each article with a link, as well as author attribution, followed by relatively brief excepts. I hope you find all of this as interesting and concerning as I did.
