U.S. should be the world’s policeman
When there is no effective alternative,
democratic countries have an ethical and humanitarian duty to threaten
to use military force and, if there is no other option, to actually use
it.
The United States should not be the world's policeman, or so U.S. President Barack Obama
argued in his address to the nation on September 10, in which he
explained his position on military intervention in the Syrian civil war.
The president is wrong. In light of the history and doctrine of the use
of force and military intervention, the United States, along with other
enlightened democracies in possession of military might, should and
must be the world's policeman.
The
horrors of World War II taught us certain lessons. One led to the
formation of the United Nations, for the purpose of preserving world
peace and creating a mechanism for dialogue among states. Another
resulted in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which eventually
gave rise to binding international treaties meant to protect human
rights. But some questions remain: Do the lofty goals that inspired the
establishment of the United Nations mean that the international
community has a duty to intervene and raise the alarm
in the event of the commission of war crimes or the use of weapons of
mass destruction? (...)
It is legitimate to question whether intervention might lead to
international escalation. Nevertheless, isolationism in cases where
intervention is a moral necessity is supposed to be a thing of the past,
of a
time when states did not want to get bogged down in distant countries
even in the event of war crimes. If this attitude becomes prevalent once
again, it will be to the detriment of the entire world. It goes without
saying that diplomacy, itself a form of intervention, is preferable as
long as it is effective and not a kind of Munich Pact, as U.S. Secretary
of State John Kerry noted in reference to Syria.
At
the end of the day, America, together with other strong democratic
countries, is indeed supposed to be the world's policeman - insofar as
it is acting on behalf of the fundamental principles on which the United
Nations was founded, even when political exigencies preclude obtaining
UN approval. When there is no effective alternative or pressure must be
exerted to kick-start diplomacy, democratic countries have an ethical
and humanitarian duty to threaten to use military force and, if there is
no other option, to actually use it. Proportionally, of course, but
also effectively, in compliance with the two leading criteria of
military law.

Why real whistleblowers can no longer exist
Sott.net --- This
NSA-whistleblower-government-spying scandal is hard for many to digest.
On one level, I am an idealist too. I would like to believe that a lone
whistleblower can pull a fast one on the NSA/CIA/Mossad axis. But I
know that it cannot be. People find it hugely difficult to accept that
the world is now so unrelentingly corrupt that the true extent of this corruption cannot be exposed and overturned by any whistleblowing.

This article is a compilation of a number of pieces I’ve written about Ed Snowden and the NSA. It doesn’t replace them, but it hits the high points…
Let’s begin here: If you absolutely must have a hero, watch Superman movies.
If your need for a hero is so great, so cloying, so heavy, so juicy that it swamps your curiosity, don’t read this.
If you can’t separate Snowden’s minor revelations from the question of who he is, if you can’t entertain the notion that covert ops and intelligence-agency games are reeking with cover stories, false trails, and limited hangouts, you need more fun in your life.
NSA? CIA? These guys live for high-level bullshit. They get down on their knees and worship it. They fall into a suicidal funk if they aren’t lying on at least three or four levels at once.
Okay. Let’s look at Snowden’s brief history as reported by The Guardian. Are there any holes?

FLASHBACK 2008: Is Israel's booming high-tech industry a branch of the Mossad?
Author of 'The Shadow Factory: The Ultra-Secret NSA from 9/11 to the Eavesdropping on America' says the NSA thinks so.
FLASHBACK 2013: NSA shares raw intelligence including Americans' data with Israel
Lest We Forget–Companies With Ties to Israel Wiretap the U.S. for the NSA
ed note–remember as we go through all the media induced convulsions over ‘Obama’s spying program’ that it was ISRAEL that was primarily involved with this.
NOW, a mere few days after
this story ‘broke’ (despite being old news as far back as 9/11) suddenly
the US government has ‘decided’ that Syria–the country Israel is
screeching for the United States and NATO to invade and destroy–used
chemical weapons against its citizens, thus crossing the ‘red line’
which Obama set months ago.

While we took satisfaction in seeing government and corporate crimes come back to haunt their perpetrators, SOTT.net remained cautious about lauding Assange or the WikiLeaks organisation as heroic. What did any of the 'Iraq War Logs' or U.S. State Department 'diplomatic cables' reveal that was not already publicly available information? Obviously some details were new, but they didn't change the fact that the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq was illegal under international law and that everyone involved had either committed or were ancillary to war crimes. Nor did anything so damaging come out to bring the perpetrators to justice or to catalyse real political change that would actually improve ordinary people's welfare.
Things, as you may have noticed in recent years, have only gotten worse for the masses.
So is Edward Snowden, the U.S. National Security Agency whistleblower currently 'on the run' after disclosing 'top secret documents' to major media outlets, a hero or traitor? Is he neither? We discussed this and more in last Sunday's SOTT Talk Radio show on the NSA leaks. Have a listen:

Israeli high-tech firms Verint and Narus have had connections with U.S. companies and Israeli intelligence in the past, and ties between the countries’ intelligence agencies remain strong.
Haaretz
Were Israeli companies Verint and
Narus the ones that collected information from the U.S. communications
network for the National Security Agency?
The question arises amid
controversy over revelations that the NSA has been collecting the phone
records of hundreds of millions of Americans every day, creating a
database through which it can learn whether terror suspects have been in
contact with people in the United States. It also was disclosed this
week that the NSA has been gathering all Internet usage – audio, video,
photographs, emails and searches – from nine major U.S. Internet
providers, including Microsoft and Google, in hopes of detecting
suspicious behavior that begins overseas.
According to an article in the
American technology magazine “Wired” from April 2012, two Israeli
companies – which the magazine describes as having close connections to
the Israeli security community – conduct bugging and wiretapping for the
NSA.
Verint, which took over its
parent company Comverse Technology earlier this year, is responsible for
tapping the communication lines of the American telephone giant
Verizon, according to a past Verizon employee sited by James Bamford in
Wired. Neither Verint nor Verizon commented on the matter.
Natus, which was acquired in 2010
by the American company Boeing, supplied the software and hardware used
at AT
T wiretapping rooms, according to whistleblower Mark Klein,
who revealed the information in 2004. Klein, a past technician at
AT
T who filed a suit against the company for spying on its
customers, revealed a “secret room” in the company’s San Fransisco
office, where the NSA collected data on American citizens’ telephone
calls and Internet surfing.

Klein’s claims were reinforced by
former NSA employee Thomas Drake who testified that the agency uses a
program produced by Narus to save the personal electrical communications
of AT
T customers.
T customers.
Both Verint and Narus have ties
to the Israeli intelligence agency and the Israel Defense Forces
intelligence-gathering unit 8200. Hanan Gefen, a former commander of the
8200 unit, told Forbes magazine in 2007 that Comverse’s technology,
which was formerly the parent company of Verint and merged with it this
year, was directly influenced by the technology of 8200. Ori Cohen, one
of the founders of Narus, told Fortune magazine in 2001 that his
partners had done technology work for the Israeli intelligence.
International intel
The question of whether
intelligence communities outside the United States were involved has
been raised. According to The Guardian, the Government Communications
Headquarters (GCHQ), Britain’s intelligence agency, secretly collected
intelligence information from the world’s largest Internet companies via
the American program PRISM. According to a top secret document obtained
by The Guardian, GCHQ had access to PRISM since 2010 and it used the
information to prepare 197 intelligence reports last year. In a
statement to the Guardian, GCHQ, said it “takes its obligations under
the law very seriously.”
According to The Guardian,
details of GCHQ’s use of PRISM are set out in a 41-page PowerPoint
presentation prepared for senior NSA analysts, and describe a “snooping”
operation that gave the NSA and FBI access to the systems of nine
Internet giants, including Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, Yahoo and
Skype.
Given the close ties between U.S.
and Israeli intelligence, the question arises as to whether Israeli
intelligence, including the Mossad, was party to the secret.
Obama stands by spies
At turns defensive and defiant, U.S. President Barack Obama stood by the spy programs revealed this week.
He declared Friday that his
country is “going to have to make some choices” balancing privacy and
security, launching a vigorous defense of formerly secret programs that
sweep up an estimated 3 billion phone calls a day and amass Internet
data from U.S. providers in an attempt to thwart terror attacks.
Obama also warned that it will be
harder to detect threats against the United States now that the two
top-secret tools to target terrorists have been so thoroughly
publicized.
“Nobody is listening to your
telephone calls,” Obama assured the nation after two days of reports
that many found unsettling. What the government is doing, he said, is
digesting phone numbers and the durations of calls, seeking links that
might “identify potential leads with respect to folks who might engage
in terrorism.” If there’s a hit, he said, “if the intelligence community
then actually wants to listen to a phone call, they’ve got to go back
to a federal judge, just like they would in a criminal investigation.”
Tapping thwarted terror attack
While Obama said the aim of the
programs is to make America safe, he offered no specifics about how the
surveillance programs have done this. House Intelligence Committee
Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Mich., on Thursday said the phone records sweeps
had thwarted a domestic terror attack, but he also didn’t offer
specifics.
U.S. government sources said on
Friday that the attack in question was an Islamist militant plot to bomb
the New York City subway system in 2009.
Obama asserted his administration
had tightened the phone records collection program since it started in
the George W. Bush administration and is auditing the programs to ensure
that measures to protect Americans’ privacy are heeded – part of what
he called efforts to resist a mindset of “you know, `Trust me, we’re
doing the right thing. We know who the bad guys are.’”
But again, he provided no details on how the program was tightened or what the audit is looking at.
Obama: 100% privacy is impossible
The furor this week has divided
Congress, and led civil liberties advocates and some constitutional
scholars to accuse Obama of crossing a line in the name of rooting out
terror threats.
Obama, himself a constitutional
lawyer, strove to calm Americans’ fears – but also remind them that
Congress and the courts had signed off on the surveillance.
“I think the American people
understand that there are some trade-offs involved,” Obama said when
questioned by reporters at a health care event in San Jose, California.
“It’s important to recognize that
you can’t have 100 percent security and also then have 100 percent
privacy and zero inconvenience,” he said. “We’re going to have to make
some choices as a society. And what I can say is that in evaluating
these programs, they make a difference in our capacity to anticipate and
prevent possible terrorist activity.”
Obama said U.S. intelligence
officials are looking at phone numbers and lengths of calls – not at
people’s names – and not listening in.
The two classified surveillance
programs were revealed this week in newspaper reports that showed, for
the first time, how deeply the National Security Agency dives into
telephone and Internet data to look for security threats. The new
details were first reported by The Guardian and The Washington Post, and
prompted Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to take the
unusual and reluctant step of acknowledging the programs’ existence.
Obama echoed intelligence experts
– both inside and outside the government – who predicted that potential
attackers will find other, secretive ways to communicate now that they
know that their phone and Internet records may be targeted.
ECHELON, according to information in the European Parliament document, "On the existence of a global system for the interception of private and commercial communications (ECHELON interception system)" was created to monitor the military and diplomatic communications of the Soviet Union and its Eastern Bloc allies during the Cold War in the early 1960s[...]Echelon was created long before the War [of] Terror and prior to the arrival of the Internet, meaning that back then there was no need for thorough "shaping of the public opinion", no need for media to be an overt whore for the military or intelligence agencies. NSA, CIA, Mossad, MI5, etc. just did their bloody thing and didn't worry much about whistleblowers. Of course, there were always trouble-makers, but everything was manageable (various coup d'états, COINTELPRO projects, assassinations, etc... piece of cake!), not to mention using the wonderfully silver-tongued concept of "plausible deniability", which came in handy, oh so often. In any event, in the public's eyes, intelligence agencies still had an aura of mystique about them. Hey, who wouldn't want to be a secret agent or a spy?
Bamford describes the system as the software controlling the collection and distribution of civilian telecommunications traffic conveyed using communication satellites, with the collection being undertaken by ground stations located in the footprint of the downlink leg.[...]
The UK/USA intelligence community was assessed by the European Parliament (EP) in 2000 to include the signals intelligence agencies of each of the member states: UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, The Netherlands.[...]
