A big thank you goes out to all those involved in helping Mr. Edward Snowden !!!!

The former Spanish Judge, Mr. Baltasar Garzon is amazing !!!!!! He tried to go after the Bush administration.

Thank you Julian Assange. Stay safe and strong. You have the support of millions around the globe.

Thank you Wikileaks.

Thank you Mr. Edward Snowden. I hope your journey is a safe one. Stay strong.

NO COUNTRY on this planet should agree to extradite any person to the U.S. !!!!!!

The U.S. uses torture in juvenile facilities.
The U.S. uses torture in their prison system.
The U.S. uses torture in Guantanamo.
The U.S. uses torture in secret prisons the world over.
The U.S. trains torturers and assassins at the School of Americas, in Fort Benning, Georgia. When they return to their countries they use what they have learned to torture and kill their fellow citizens.
The U.S. extradites and sends individuals to countries known for torture.
The U.S. tortured Bradley Manning.

When I hear U.S. politicians, or the current president of the U.S. talk about the rule of law, it sickens me !!!!!
