The Strange Silencing of Liberal America
By John Pilger - July 07, 2011
My talk on 15 June was to have been about the collusion of American liberalism in a permanent state of war and the demise of cherished freedoms...In the United States...serious dissent - free speech - has been substantially criminalised. Obama...is as much a warmonger as George W. Bush. His score is six wars. Never in US history has a president prosecuted as many whistle-blowers...Obama’s greatest achievement is having seduced, co-opted and silenced much of liberal opinion in the United States, including the anti-war movement.
