A Nation of "Suspects"
http://www.truth-out.org/nation-suspects/1314810046
Nancy Murray and Kade Crockford, Truthout and ACLU Massachusetts: "The rece=
nt dramatic expansion of intelligence collection at the federal, state and =
local level raises profound civil liberties concerns regarding freedoms and=
protections we have long taken for granted. If people generally appear una=
ware of 'change in the air,' a large part of the reason is the unparalleled=
resort to secrecy used by the government to keep its actions from public s=
crutiny. According to the new American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) report,=
'Drastic Measures Required,' under President Obama (who had vowed to creat=
e 'an unprecedented level of openness in Government' when he first took off=
ice), there were no fewer than 76,795,945 decisions made to classify inform=
ation in 2010 - eight times the number made in 2001."

Robert Naiman, Truthout: "On October 7, 2011, the United States will have b=
een at war for ten years. Let's mark the occasion by making a national clam=
or for peace so loud that Congress, the president and big media will have t=
o pay attention.... [T]he press has to cover the anniversary of the war, bu=
t these stories are going to be largely written and produced before Friday.=
The default media narrative will be: America has lost interest in the wars=
, because of the economy and unemployment, because 'the wars are already wi=
nding down,' or some other story that journalists or editors will make up. =
We have to beat this default media narrative. To beat it, we need to get in=
front of it."
