WikiLeaks reveals Hillary, Google, al Jazeera all conspiring against Syria.
http://truepublica.org.uk/global/google-able-effect-regime-change-appears/
Last week truepublica reported that four months ago, Google created a new holding company called Alphabet and that Eric Schmidt the new Executive Chairman of Alphabet, and therefore Google had decided to accept the offer of leading the Pentagon advisory board with a view to bringing Silicon Valley innovation and best practices to the US military. We questioned the ethics and moral judgement of both Schmidt and Google in joining forces with the biggest killing machine in modern times, certainly since the world wars.
We pointed to the meeting between Eric Schmidt and Julian Assange back in 2011, supposedly organised to discuss a book Schmidt was writing who was unexpectedly accompanied by a Jared Cohen. Cohen had moved to Google from the U.S. State Department in 2010. He had been a slick ideas guy at two U.S. administrations, known to be something of a courtier from the world of policy think tanks sympathetic to US foreign policy. He was a senior advisor for Secretaries of State Rice and Clinton.
Assange asserts that Schmidt was acting directly on behalf of Washington with a documented relationship that put him close to President Obama and Clinton and as Assange puts it: Cohens directorate appeared to cross over from public relations and corporate responsibility work into active corporate intervention in foreign affairs at a level that is normally reserved for states. Jared Cohen could be wryly named Googles director of regime change.
