So now it's common knowledge that America has built a massive full spectrum privatized information retrieval apparatus (PRISM) which becomes fully operational this fall and confirms that we are now living in Orwell's invasive Oceania ~ where technology is being consciously used to manipulate the public as well as crush human liberty and deny our privacy. All of this is preparation for the fast approaching New World Order: Allen L Roland
Once
we roared like lions for liberty and now we bleat like sheep for security.
Coming
face to face with PRISM is like the cave men in Kubrick's 2001 Space Odyssey
experiencing the dark monolith ~ which in this video adaptation looks purposely similar
to an Apple Iphone 5 ~ and the first realization that they are being
monitored by a technology far more powerful than
themselves ~ which, like the party members in Orwell's Oceania, they will eventually learn to love in their servitude.
In the June 16, 2013 issue
of Information Clearing House
- J.P. Higgs shares that the Associated
Press dropped a bombshell report that claims the NSA's secret Internet spy
program Prism is just a small part of a much more "expansive and
intrusive" digital spying effort. According to the AP, the NSA
copies ALL INTERNET traffic in and out of the United States for analysis by
hoovering all data that passes through fiber lines.
"Tapping into those cables allows the NSA access to monitor emails, telephone calls, video chats, websites, bank transactions and more. It takes powerful computers to decrypt, store and analyze all this information, but the information is all there, zipping by at the speed of light," AP reports.
Prism was originally thought to be a program to force Internet companies to hand over private user data to the government. But it turns out that Prism is actually a filtering tool to "make sense of the cacophony of the Internet's raw feed...Prism takes large beams of data and helps the government find discrete, manageable strands of information."

But it turns out that Prism is actually a filtering tool to "make sense of the cacophony of the Internet's raw feed...Prism takes large beams of data and helps the government find discrete, manageable strands of information."
It then
manages those strands of data by creating dossiers on every Internet user,
providing the government with "names, addresses, conversation histories
and entire archives of email in boxes."
And, of
course, all of this data is collected and kept on innocent people without a warrant or
any probable cause.
" This explosive report
comes the same day that the NSA held a classified briefing for members of
Congress where they admit to listening to phone calls within the United
States without a warrant." http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article35304.htm#.Ub6nxuktc14.email
So what was disclosed
in that NSA classified briefing for members of Congress last Wednesday ?
Glenn
Greenwald, who broke the Spying scandal in the Guardian, reveals that we
have just touched "the tip of the iceberg" ~ " I did, though, want to note a few points, and
particularly highlight what Democratic Rep. Loretta Sanchez said after Congress on Wednesday was given a classified
briefing by NSA officials on the agency's previously secret surveillance
activities:
"What
we learned in there is significantly more than what is out in the media today.
. . . I can't speak to what we learned in there, and I don't know if there are
other leaks, if there's more information somewhere, if somebody else is going
to step up, but I will tell you that I believe it's the tip of the iceberg . .
. . I think it's just broader than most people even realize, and I think
that's, in one way, what astounded most of us, too."
The Congresswoman is absolutely right: what we have reported thus far is merely "the
tip of the iceberg" of what the NSA is doing in spying on Americans
and the world. She's also right that when it comes to NSA spying, "there
is significantly more than what is out in the media today", and that's
exactly what we're working to rectify"

As Pepe Escobar writes in AlterNet ~ " PRISM, as expressed in
its Dark Side of the Moon-ish logo, is no less than a graphic expression
of the ultimate Pentagon/neo-con wet dream; the Full Spectrum Dominance
doctrine. The NSA ~ also known as No Such Agency ~ is part of the
Pentagon. Full Spectrum Dominance was conceptualized in the Pentagon's
2002 Joint Vision 2020. It's the Pentagon/NSA blueprint for the foreseeable
future; in trademark Pentagonese, it identifies "four
capabilities" ~ dominant maneuver, precision engagement, focused logistics
and full-dimensional protection". In sum: Total Information
Awareness (TIA)."

Here's a must see 13 minute video of Democracy
Now's Amy Goodman interviewing whistle-blower Glenn Greenwald on the latest
developments in this growing scandal which adds further proof that the
worldwide Internet has been effectively mined and exploited by the NSA.
Greenwald identifies Senator Diane Feinstein as a key player in instituting
this climate of fear and calls her "the most Orwellian political
figure in Washington, DC." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Paz8j43W2zU
To
fully understand PRISM, you must first think
global for we are talking here about a growing global
security state which will be an integral part of the fast approaching New World Order.
Tom
Englehardt identifies
the five urges essential to understanding the secret world of PRISM ~ that Edward Snowden and Glenn Greenwald has most
certainly helped us glimpse.
1. The Urge to be Global ~ "Based on what we now know, we should
be talking about an American global security state."
2.
The Urge to Make You Transparent ~ "The urge to possess you, or
everything that can be known about you, has clearly taken possession of our
global security state."
3.
The Urge to make Themselves Opaque ~ "With this goes another reality.
They are to become ever less accessible, ever more impenetrable, ever less
knowable to you (except in the forms in which they would prefer you to know
them)."
4. The Urge to Expand ~ "As we’ve known at least since Dana
Priest and William Arkin published their stunning series, “Top Secret
America,” in the Washington Post in 2010, the U.S. Intelligence
Community has expanded post-9/11 to levels unimaginable even in the Cold War
era… And its urge to continue growing, to build yet more structures for
surveillance, including a vast $2 billion NSA repository in Bluffdale, Utah,
that will be capable of holding an almost unimaginable yottabyte of data, is increasingly written into its
DNA."
5. The Urge to Leak ~ " If the surveillance state has
reached an industrial level of operations, and ever more secrets are being
brought into computer systems, then vast troves of secrets exist to be
revealed, already cached, organized, and ready for the plucking. If the
security state itself goes global, then the urge to leak will go global, too... In fact, it already has. As a result of all this, we face a
strangely contradictory future in which ever more draconian regimes of secrecy
will confront the urge for ever greater transparency."

Don't
underestimate Glenn Greenwald, he's loaded for bear and on a truth telling roll ~ as witness
him taking apart Bill Mayer for trying to absolve the
U.S. from any responsibility for the mass slaughter and destruction in Muslim
countries, blaming it on Islamic fundamentalism, as if the Afghanistan and Iraq
wars never happened, as if the US wasn't pushing for more war in Iran, as if it
isn't intervening in Somalia and Yemen. Two minute video ~ http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article35315.htm
So
there you have it or as Tom Englehardt summarized; " President Obama came into office promising
a “sunshine” administration that would open the workings of the government to
the American people. He didn’t deliver, but Bradley Manning, Edward
Snowden, and other leakers have, and no matter how difficult the government
makes it to leak or how hard it cracks down on leakers, the urge is almost as unstoppable as the urge not to be your government’s
property."
"In
Oceania at the present day, Science, in the old sense, has almost ceased to
exist. In Newspeak there is no word for ‘Science’. The empirical method of
thought, on which all the scientific achievements of the past were founded, is
opposed to the most fundamental principles of Ingsoc. And even technological
progress only happens when its products can in some way be used for the
diminution of human liberty" George Orwell, I984
