Department of Homeland Security
Revealed: Hundreds of Words to Avoid Using Online if You Don’t Want the Government Spying on You:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2150281/REVEALED-Hundreds-words-avoid-using-online-dont-want-government-spying-you.html
(Daniel Miller) The Department of Homeland Security has been forced to release a list of keywords and phrases it uses to monitor social networking sites and online media for signs of terrorist or other threats against the U.S.
The intriguing the list includes obvious choices such as ‘attack’, ‘Al Qaeda’, ‘terrorism’ and ‘dirty bomb’ alongside dozens of seemingly innocent words like ‘pork’, ‘cloud’, ‘team’ and ‘Mexico’.
Released under a freedom of information request, the information sheds new light on how government analysts are instructed to patrol the internet searching for domestic and external threats.
My Commentary: Department chiefs “insisted the practice was aimed not at policing the internet for disparaging remarks about the government and signs of general dissent, but to provide awareness of any potential threats.” Nothing to see, here, folks. Move along…

Rayn: These ultra-wealthy, immoral, vampire-mummies are BLATANTLY trying to fast-track THEIR WAR, before the American people catch on to their latest lies!
Betsy H.: All the protesting more than likely will never persuade the men and women to listen to the people here until the day comes when peace is more profitable than their war plans. Achieving that goal is still the dream of many here, including me, finding peaceful ways to get their attention while they play us for their votes is the challenge.
Beatris S.: INSANE.
Mehdrad S.: Thanks so much Rayn for your support.
Mehdrad S.: Many thanks Betsy for your very correct diagnosis of this fatal illness. When a democracy is turned into a corporatocracy, with the Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex at its core (assisted by a “consent- manufacturing” media), decisions -even by the peoples’ representatives!- to instigate wars of aggression should come as no surprise. As you rightly mentioned, such a war is more profitable to THEM than peace. They represent the said Complex rather than the people.

Just a few more laws, regulations & cages”
My Commentary: Good. I was starting to worry that America was becoming a fascist police state.

“War on Terror (Freeze or I’ll shoot!)
– Invade poor countries to get terrorists
– Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of terror suspects
– Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people
– Ignore underlying causes of terror
– Waste billions of dollars
– Experience failure

War on Drugs (Freeze or I’ll shoot)
– Invade poor neighborhoods to get drug dealers
– Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of drug suspects
– Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people
– Ignore underlying causes of drug use
– Waste billions of dollars
– Experience failure”
(Artwork by Andy Singer, as part of his comic, “No Exit”)
My Commentary: Some major similarities between the fallacious “War on Terror” and “War on Drugs.”
