This is one of Mr. Greenwald's best presentations I've seen yet. He is eloquent, compelling, and, unfortunately, 100% right about the dangers of extreme secrecy and the entirely unaccountable national security state that it enables.
Looking forward to more from Lannan; glad to know people are fighting to bring these critical issues to light.

Glenn remains my hero. He's on his way to embracing and advocating the recognition of a force powerful enough to have masterminded 9/11 as well.

Everyone prominent in the media get's jolly old rides in submarines and helicopter rides to "show" what they do and all kinds of other perks that seem to make them feel brotherly love for the military. The military can do no wrong, they are keeping us safe at night.

he's a rare hero and very brave - one of many who deserve Nobel Peace Prize. these sneaky corrupt corporate/politicians aren't fit to polish his shoes.
Go Glenn!

Great Speach and 100% correct on Wikileaks.
But if it is true that the global corporate shadow governtment Mr Greenwald talked about also wants to create a world government run by them, then it makes a lot of sense that they could be the same people behind wikileaks to discredit every governments in the world in order to give reason for a more powerful central control which is more than the UN. I think that is why wikileaks is silent on corruption in UN agencies because they are to retain credibility and evolve into the new world order.
