The evils of tyranny are rarely seen but by him who resists it." John Hay 1838-1905 American statesman, diplomat, author, journalist, personal secretary to Abraham Lincoln.
"One
of the shrewdest ways for human predators to conquer their stronger
victims is to steadily convince them with propaganda that they're still
free." N.A. Scott American author, intellectual, anti-totalitarian figure.
"The
whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed -- and
thus clamorous to be led to safety -- by menacing it with an endless
series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." H.L. Mencken 1880-1956 American journalist, satarist, social critic, anti-establishment figure.

DemocracyNow.org - The ability of
the U.S. government to jail people without charge or trial is now back
in court. A group of reporters, scholars and activists are suing the
Obama administration over the controversial provision in the National
Defense Authorization Act, saying it could allow for the indefinite
detention of journalists and others who interact with certain groups. On
Wednesday, the Justice Department asked an appeals court to reverse a
judge's earlier decision blocking indefinite detention, saying the
ruling would hamper its ability to fight terrorism. On the same day, the
Academy Award-winning filmmaker and activist Michael Moore and the
case's lead plaintiff, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges,
took part in a panel featuring some of those who were in the courtroom
opposing the NDAA. We air excerpts of their remarks.To watch the entire weekday independent news hour, read the transcript, download the podcast, search our vast archive, or to find more information about Democracy Now! and Amy Goodman, visit http://www.democracynow.org.
