Wikileaks hat vor kurzem ein 'Afghan War Diary' online gestellt, das sind etwa 91.000 klassifizierte US-Reports von 2004 bis 2010. Die Medien haben dazu geschrieben, dass da eh nichts wirklich neues drin ist, was nicht eh schon bekannt ist, und die Amis machen natürlich einen Riesen-Aufstand wegen national security.Die zentrale Frage lautet: Wie kommen afghanische Rebellen an österreichische Granaten, Granatwerfer und Handgranaten?
As a matter of fact, Barack Obama has now, with the prosecution of Bradley Manning, indicted as many people for whistleblowing or leaks as all previous presidents put together.
[..] Two of whom are being prosecuted for acts carried out under George Bush and for which Bush chose not to prosecute—Thomas Drake, who is under indictment, and Shamai Leibowitz, who pleaded guilty (a mistake in my mind). So Obama's famous position of not looking backward seems to apply only to crimes like torture or illegal warrantless surveillance. He's given absolute amnesty to the officials of the Bush administration. But in the case of Thomas Drake, who told a reporter about a billion-and-half-dollar waste at the NSA, and in the case of Shamai Leibowitz, who says he exposed acts to a blogger that he regarded as illegal, Obama was willing to look backward and prosecute.
Change we can believe in, baby!Another thing that was then illegal: Nixon brought a dozen CIA assets, under the direction of Howard Hunt and Gordon Liddy, up from Miami on May 3rd 1972, with orders to incapacitate me totally. That was done covertly and was one of the factors that led to Nixon's resignation. Obama has now announced, through his then-head of intelligence, Dennis Blair, that we have a list of those who can be assassinated by special-forces operators. And this president has even approved names of American citizens on that list. Now that's an astonishing change, not in our covert policy—presidents have been involved in covert assassination plots repeatedly—but to announce that publicly as a supposedly legitimate policy. That negates the Magna Carta. It's a kind of power that no king of England has asserted since John I.
