#IStandWithEdwardSnowden because free nations don't spy on
and murder their citizens. Democracies don't terrorize sovereign nations
and their peoples with torture, false imprisonment, and drone-based
perma-war. It is time to stand up against the oil oligarchy’s police
state that is stifling social change required to achieve universal human
rights, justice, equity, and global ecological sustainability.

“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” – Benjamin Franklin
“If living unfreely but comfortably is something you are willing to accept… it is going to get worse with the next generation… The government has granted itself power it is not entitled to. There is no public oversight. The greatest fear I have for the outcome of these disclosures is that nothing will change… [that people] won’t be willing to stand up and take the risks to fight. I am not afraid, because this is the choice I've made.” – Edward Snowden
The Bush administration "puts forward a false choice between the liberties we cherish and the security we provide." – Candidate Barack Obama 2007
"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." – George Orwell
“With American spying and drone perma-war we are witnessing the end of democracy, the failure of a fragile experiment that governments are derived from the people.” – Dr. Glen Barry
** The latest Earth Meanders essay looking at issues of green liberty, including:
- Freedom Isn’t Free, Terrorism Is Pervasive
- The Green Liberty Party
“We the People" are not enemies of the state and deserve and need to
know what our government is doing. The truth matters – particularly when
human freedom is at stake, and our shared environment is collapsing,
with both at risk of being lost forever. America’s civil liberties have
been trampled on, and sadly, most don’t seem to care, failing to
understand the full implications of big brother’s ascendancy. Defending
freedom from government tyranny is not a left-or-right,
conservative-or-liberal matter; it is the difference between right and
wrong, truth and lies, liberty and enslavement, life and death.
Edward Snowden has revealed the extent to which America has become a total surveillance police state – with wholesale spying upon its own citizens – adding to revelations since 9/11 of the murder of U.S. citizens as well as torture, indefinite detention, and pursuit of drone perma-war, terrorizing entire nations. All of these acts are occurring upon the basis of suspicion alone – without due legal process, violating international law and the U.S. Constitution – in an unprecedented expansion of government powers in the name of a war on terror, when in fact they are being used to control dissent and access oil.

President Barack Obama is a profound epic failure, in many ways
worse than Über-fascist Bush, just a new black face on the American oil
oligarchy’s long history of tyranny and warmongering. What a feeble,
sellout, murdering, cynical disappointment Barack Obama has turned out
to be. After killing a million Arabs and Muslims, Bush policies
continued with vigor under Obama, has the U.S. avenged 9/11 yet? Or does
America need to spy, torture, falsely imprison, and wage perma-war for
years longer? Perhaps forever?
America is poised upon the precipice of becoming a totalitarian police state overseeing final global environmental collapse. As America is at risk of becoming a third-rate police state, all lovers of liberty – from the Tea Party to progressives – must come together to resist oppression, remain free, embrace justice and equity for all, and sustain our shared global environment. One can feel a libertarian–progressive alliance building to stop big nanny government from enslaving us while destroying our environment. A commitment to Green Liberty is the human family’s only path to sustained well-being.
