COMMENT: The audio of the dog screaming after being shot during a swat raid is particularly disturbing. I remember that video from a while back...pretty sure the raid was related to a "pot" offense.

Major General Explains The Ugliest Truth About War
Source: BusinessInsider.com
"War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.
I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism."

Pentagon Papers Leaker Daniel Ellsberg Praises Snowden, Manning (Audio)
Source: NPR.org
Daniel Ellsberg, the military analyst who in 1971 leaked the top-secret Pentagon Papers detailing the history of U.S. policy in Vietnam, tells NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday that unlike Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden, he "did it the wrong way" by trying first to go through proper channels — a delay that he says cost thousands of lives.
"I really regarded [it] as anathema ... leaking as opposed to working within the system," Ellsberg says, speaking to NPR's Linda Wertheimer. "I wasted years trying to do it through channels, first within the executive branch and then with Congress."
"During that time, more than 10,000 Americans died and probably more than a million Vietnamese," Ellsberg says.
"That was a fruitless effort, as it would have been for Manning and Snowden," he says.

NSA Director Heckled At Conference

--Alexander was about a half hour into his talk when a 30-year-old security consultant named Jon McCoy shouted "Freedom!"
"Exactly," responded Alexander. "We stand for freedom."
"Bullshit!" McCoy shouted.
"Not bad," Alexander said, as applause broke out in the crowd. "But I think what you're saying is that in these cases, what's the distinction, where's the discussion and what tools do we have to stop this."
"No, I'm saying I don't trust you!" shouted McCoy.
"You lied to Congress. Why would people believe you're not lying to us right now?" another voice in the crowd added.
"I haven't lied to Congress," Alexander responded, visibly tensing. "I do think it's important for us to have this discussion. Because in my opinion, what you believe is what's written in the press without looking at the facts. This is the greatest technical center of gravity in the world. I ask that you all look at those facts."
