Whistleblower

Whistleblower

Whistle-blowing reflects doing the right thing. It exposes wrongdoing. It does so because it

matters.

Edward Joseph Snowden follows a noble tradition. Others before him established it. Daniel Ellsberg

called his NSA leak the most important in US history. More on him below.

Expressions of patriotism can reflect good or ill. Samuel Johnson said it’s the last refuge of a

scoundrel. Thomas Paine called dissent its highest form. So did Howard Zinn.

ActivistPost – Stephen Lendman – Whistleblowing : Exemplary Patriotism

“Give me liberty, or give me death!” Patrick Henry delivering his great speech on the rights of the colonies, before the

Virginia Assembly, convened at Richmond, March 23rd 1775, concluding with the above sentiment, which became the war

cry of the American Revolution by Currier & Ives.

According to Machiavelli:

When the safety of one’s country wholly depends on the decision to be taken, no attention should be

paid either to justice or injustice, to kindness or cruelty, or to its being praiseworthy or ignominious.

Tolstoy said:

In our day the feeling of patriotism is an unnatural, irrational, and harmful feeling, and a cause of a

great part of the ills from which mankind is suffering; and consequently, this feeling should not be

cultivated, as is now being done, but should, on the contrary, be suppressed and eradicated by all

means available to rational men.

Philosophy Professor Stephen Nathanson believes patriotism involves:

special affection for one’s own country;

a sense of personal identification with the country;

special concern for the well-being of the country; and

willingness to sacrifice to promote the country’s good.

United States Whistleblower ~ Paul Revere

Socrates once said:

Patriotism does not require one to agree with everything that his country does, and would actually

promote analytical questioning in a quest to make the country the best it possibly can be.

Founding Father & U.S. Patriot Charles Carroll: In the first version of his last will and testament, the only Catholic Signer of

the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll, wrote on December 1, 1818:

“I, Charles Carroll. . . . give and bequeath my soul to God who gave it, my body to the earth, hoping that through and by the

merits, sufferings, and mediation of my only Savior and Jesus Christ, I may be admitted into the Kingdom prepared by God

for those who love, fear and truly serve Him.”

“Without Morals A Republic Cannot Subsist Any Length of Time”

–U.S. Patriot Charles Carroll

The best involves strict adherence to the highest legal, ethical and moral standards. Upholding

universal civil and human rights is fundamental. So is government of, by and for everyone equitably.

Openness, accountability and candor can’t be compromised.

When governments ill-serve, exposing wrongdoing is vital. It takes courage to do so. It involves

sacrificing for the greater good. It includes risking personal harm and welfare. It means doing what’s

right because it matters. It reflects patriotism’s highest form.

Daniel Ellsberg, Bradley Manning and Julian Assange are best known. So is Mordechai Vanunu.

More on him below. Few remember Peter Buxtun. He’s a former US Public Health Service

employee.

Taken at the Gathering of Mustangs, Columbus, Ohio.    P-51 B painted in the colors of the Tuskegee Airmen.

He exposed the Tuskegee syphilis experiment.

About 200 Black men were infected.

In 1966 U.S. Patriot Peter Buxton blew the whistle on the U.S. Public Health Service’s Tuskegee Experiment, in which poor

rural black men in Alabama were not told they had acquired syphilis (which they had previously contracted) as part of an

experiment to learn about the long-term affects of untreated syphilis.

It was done to watch their progression.

They were left to die untreated.

Whistleblowing stopped further harm.

U.S. Patriot Mark Felt

Decades after the Watergate scandal claimed Nixon’s presidency, Mark Felt was revealed as Woodward and Bernstein’s

confidential source, “Deep Throat.” Felt, a former associated director of the FBI has supplied the Washington Post reporters

with enough insider information to eventually take down the president for his role in the cover-up surrounding the Watergate

burglary.

William Mark Felt, Sr. (August 17, 1913 – December 18, 2008)[1] was an agent of the Federal Bureau

of Investigation (FBI), who retired as the Bureau’s Associate Directorin 1973. After denying his

involvement with reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein for 30 years, Felt revealed himself to be

the Watergate scandal‘s whistleblower, “Deep Throat” on May 31, 2005.

A. Ernest Fitzgerald held senior government positions. In 1968, he exposed a $2.3 billion Lockheed

C-5 cost overrun. At issue was fraud and grand theft. Nixon told aides to “get rid of that son of a

bitch.”

Mordechai Vanunu was an Israeli nuclear technician. He exposed Israel’s secret nuclear weapons

program. He paid dearly for doing so.

He was charged with espionage and treason. In 1986/87, he was secretly tried and sentenced. He

was imprisoned for 18 years. He was confined in brutalizing isolation. He’s been harassed and

deprived of most rights since.

World Patriot Mordechai Vanunu

Daniel Ellsberg called him “the preeminent hero of the nuclear era.” In July 2007, Amnesty

International (AI) named him “a prisoner of conscience.” He received multiple Nobel Peace Prize

nominations.

Daniel Ellsberg was a military analyst working for the RAND Corporation in 1971 when he provided the New York Times with

a series of documents known as the Pentagon Papers. The Times wrote that the papers “demonstrated, among other things,

that the Lyndon Baines Johnson Administration had systematically lied, not only to the public but also to Congress, about a

subject of transcendent national interest and significance”

Vanunu said “I am neither a traitor nor a spy. I only wanted the world to know what was happening.”

People have every right to know.

U.S. Patriot Mark Edward Whitacre came to public attention in 1995 when, as president of the BioProducts Division at

Archer Daniels Midland, he was the highest-level corporate executive in U.S. history to become a Federal Bureau of

Investigation whistleblower.

Mark Whitacre was an Archer Daniels Midland senior executive. He exposed price-fixing, wire and

tax fraud, as well as money laundering.

He had his own cross to bear. He was prosecuted and imprisoned. He lost his whistleblower

immunity. After eight and a half years, he was released on good behavior.

U.S. Patriot Dr. Jeffrey Wigand, former VP for research and development at Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., became

famous for the Russell Crowe role he inspired in the 1999 film “The Insider.”

After losing his job, Wigand went to 60 Minutes to expose the practice of manipulating the nicotine levels in cigarettes to

addict customers.

Jeffrey Wigand was Brown & Williamson’s research and development vice president. He went

public on 60 Minutes. He exposed deceptive company practices. He was fired for doing so.

B & W enhanced cigarette nicotine content. It was done without public knowledge. At issue was

increasing addiction. Wigand told all. He received death threats for doing so. He now lectures

worldwide and consults on tobacco control policies.

U.S. Patriot Gary Webb

The Tragic Saga of Gary Webb ~ Movie To Begin Filming Summer 2013

Gary Webb was an award-winning American journalist. His investigative work exposed CIA

involvement in drugs trafficking. His book “Dark Alliance: The CIA, the Contras, and the Crack

Cocaine Explosion” told what he knew.

New York Times, Washington Post, and other media scoundrels assailed him. They did so

wrongfully and viciously. Then and now they support CIA crimes. They abhor truth and full

disclosure. They ruined Webb’s career. They did so maliciously.

In December 2004, Webb was found dead at home. He died of two gunshot wounds to the head.

Reports called it suicide. Critics believe otherwise. Two wounds suggest murder. Doing the right

thing involves great risks. Webb paid with his life.

World Patriot Hodler, an IOC member since 1963, set off the bid scandal that led to the biggest ethics crisis in the history of

the International Olympic Committee. In 1998, he detailed what he called systematic buying and selling of votes in the host

city selection process for the 2002 Winter Games.

The crisis led to an unprecedented purge of IOC members, with six delegates expelled and four resigning for receiving

improper gifts or benefits.

Swiss lawyer Marc Hodler was International Ski Federation president and International Olympic

Committee member.

In 1998, he exposed 2002 Salt Lake City winter games bid-rigging. Olympism profiteering,

exploitation and corruption is longstanding.

Deceptive hyperbole promotes good will, open competition, and fair play. Olympism’s dark side

reflects marginalizing poor and other disenfranchised groups, exploiting athletes and communities,

as well as sticking taxpayers with the bill for profit.

Harry Markopolos exposed Bernie Madoff’s hedge fund operations. He called them fraudulent. He

obtained information firsthand. He got them from fund-of-fund Madoff investors and heads of Wall

Street equity derivative trading desks.

U.S. Patriot Harry M. Markopolos is a former securities industry executive, and an independent forensic accounting and

financial fraud investigator

He accused Madoff of operating “the world’s largest Ponzi scheme.” Large perhaps but not the

largest.

Wall Street firms make money the old fashioned way. They steal it. They do so through fraud,

grand theft, market manipulation and front-running. They scam investors unaccountably.

They bribe corrupt political officials. In return, they turn a blind eye.

Compared to major Wall Street crooks, Madoff was small-time.

Others mattering most control America’s money. They manipulate it fraudulently for profit.

9/11 Completely Unmasked: Black 9/11~ Money, Motive, Technology, & Deniability!

Coleen Rowley a former FBI agent who documented pre-9/11 Agency failures.

She addressed them to Director Robert Mueller.

Many people know that Osama Bin Laden was never wanted by the FBI for the crimes of 9/11. In fact,

when the FBI was presented with evidence of controlled demolition, it was acknowledged as, “an

interesting theory, backed by thorough research and analysis.”

A registered letter was sent to FBI Director Robert Mueller. The letter was written pursuant to Title 18

USC § 2382 “Crimes and Criminal Procedure” or “Misprision of Treason”.

The penalty to a sworn official who violates “Misprision of Treason” by not reporting or acting on the

evidence can lead to criminal prosecution, a prison term and a fine. Contained in the letter were

references to Richard Gage, AIA and his presentation “9/11: A Blueprint for Truth”.

U.S. Patriot Joseph Wilson, Former U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Debunks Iraq-Niger Uranium Deal and Why the U.S. Went to

VIDEO

Joseph Wilson is a former US ambassador who exposed Bush administration lies. He headlined a

New York Times op-ed “What I Didn’t Find in Africa.”

“Did the Bush administration manipulate intelligence about Saddam Hussein’s weapons programs to

justify an invasion of Iraq,” he asked?

Based on my experience with the administration in the months leading up to the war, I have little

choice but to conclude that some of the intelligence related to Iraq’s nuclear weapons program was

twisted to exaggerate the Iraqi threat.

Bush administration officials accused Wilson of twisting the truth. So did Washington Post, Wall

Street Journal, and other scoundrel media editors. They front for power. Wilson explained what

people have a right to know. He was unjustifiably pilloried for doing so.

Wendell Potter is former Vice President of corporate communications at CIGNA, one of the United States’ largest health

insurance companies. In June 2009, he testified against the HMO industry in the U.S. Senate as a whistleblower.

Wendell Potter was a senior CIGNA insurance company executive. He explained how heathcare

insurers scam policyholders. They shift costs to consumers, offer inadequate or unaffordable

access, and force Americans to pay higher deductibles for less coverage.

Sibel Edmonds an FBI translator of intelligence has implicated the US State Department in quashing investigations which

had linked the 9/11 terrorist network to a global drug trafficking ring.

Sibel Edmonds is a former FBI translator. She founded the National Security Whistleblowers

Coalition (NSWBC). She did so to aid “national security whistleblowers through a variety of

methods.”

The ACLU called her “the most gagged person in the history of the United States.” She knows

firsthand the consequences of secret, unaccountable government operations.

Her memoir is titled “Classified Woman: the Sibel Edmonds Story.”

U.S. Patriot Mark Klein: Leaked knowledge of cooperation between AT&T and NSA in installing network hardware to

monitor, capture and process American telecommunications.

Mark Klein is a former AT&T employee turned whistleblower. He revealed blueprints and

AT&T customers.

U.S. Patriot Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, U.S. Air Force (Ret.), who worked in the Pentagon and witnessed first-hand how a

controversial intelligence operation was set up after 9/11, gives an insider’s account of how neo-conservative Defense

Department officials selected and manipulated intelligence to justify a U.S. invasion of Iraq.

VIDEO

Karen Kwiatkowski is a retired US Air Force lieutenant colonel. She exposed Defense Department

misinformation and lies. She discussed how doing so drove America to war.

False Flags

“I have served my country for almost thirty years in some of the most isolated and dangerous parts of the world. I want to

continue to serve America. However, I do not believe in the policies of this Administration and cannot–morally and

professionally–defend or implement them. It is with heavy heart that I must end my service to America and therefore resign.”

U.S. Patriot Ann Wright

Ann Wright is a former US Army colonel/State Department official. In 1997, she won an agency

award for heroism.

She’s more anti-war/human rights activist/person of conscience than whistleblower. In 2003, she

resigned from government service. She did so in protest against war on Iraq.

U.S. Patriot Edward Snowden a former CIA computer technician went public on Sunday as the source behind the daily

drumbeat of disclosures about the nation’s surveillance programs, saying he took the extraordinary step because “the public

needs to decide whether these programs and policies are right or wrong.”

Edward Joseph Snowden continues a noble tradition. On June 8, London’s Guardian headlined

“Edward Snowden, NSA whistleblower: ‘I do not expect to see home again.’ “

He leaked information to The Guardian and Washington Post. He exposed unconstitutional NSA

spying. He served as an undercover intelligence employee.

Asked why he turned whistleblower, he said:

The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything. With this capability,

the vast majority of human communications are automatically ingested without targeting.

If I wanted to see your emails or your wife’s phone, all I have to do is use intercepts. I can get your

emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards.

I don’t want to live in a society that does these sort of things.

I do not want to live in a world where everything I do and say is recorded. That is not something I am

willing to support or live under.

NSA spies globally, he said. Claims about only doing it abroad don’t wash. “We collect more digital

communications from America than we do from the Russians,” he said.

Previous articles said NSA works with all major US telecom companies. They do so with nine or

more major online ones. They spy on virtually all Americans.

They target everyone they want to globally. NSA capabilities are “horrifying,” said Snowden. “You

are not even aware of what is possible.”

“We can plant bugs in machines. Once you go on the network, I can identify (it). You will never be

safe whatever protections you put in place.”

Asked what he thought might happen to him, he said “Nothing good.”

He left America. He moved to Hong Kong. He fled for his safety. He knows he can’t hide. If US

authorities want him targeted, they’ll act no-holds-barred.

If they want him arrested, they’ll find him. If they want him disappeared, imprisoned and tortured,

he’s defenseless to stop them. It they want him dead, they’ll murder him. Rogue states operate that

way. America’s by far the worst.

DNI head James Clapper accused Snowden of “violat(ing) a sacred trust for this country.I hope

we’re able to track whoever is doing this,” he said.

These type comments expose America’s dark side. So does unconstitutional NSA spying and much

more. Washington flagrantly violates fundamental rule of law principles. It does so ruthlessly. At

stake is humanity’s survival.

Snowden fears recrimination against his family, friends and partner. He’ll “have to live with that for

the rest of (his) life,” he said.

I am not going to be able to communicate with them. (US authorities) will act aggressively against

anyone who has known me. That keeps me up at night.

Asked what leaked NSA documents reveal, he said:

That the NSA routinely lies in response to congressional inquiries about the scope of surveillance in

America.

America “hacks everyone everywhere.” he said. “(W)e are in almost every country in the world.”

“Everyone, everywhere now understands how bad things have gotten – and they’re talking about it.”

On June 9, London Guardian editors headlined “Edward Snowden: more conscientious objector than

common thief,” saying:

What’s next is certain. US authorities “will pursue Snowden to the ends of the earth.” America’s

“legal and diplomatic machinery is probably unstoppable.”

Congress should eagerly want to hear what Snowden has to say, said Guardian editors. They

should “test the truth of what he is saying.”

They know full well. Many or perhaps most congressional members are fully briefed on what goes

on. They’re condone it. So do administration and judicial officials.

Obama could stop it with a stroke of his pen. So can congressional lawmakers. Supreme Court

justices could uphold the law.

Lawlessness persists. Moral cowardice pervades Washington. America’s dark side threatens

everyone. There’s no place to hide.
