SURPRISE! DOCUMENTARY ON SNOWDEN WINS OSCAR

Citizenfour based on Ed Snowden has won the Oscar 2015 for Best Documentary.

As The Guardian reports:
Citizenfour chronicles the revelations by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden that burgeoned into the wider NDA spying scandal. The Guardian and the Washington Post simultaneously began publishing Snowden’s leaked information in June 2013, with both publications winning a Pulitzer prize in 2014 for Public Service journalism.

No. Don't laugh. That really is referring to the Establishment/NATO media flagships The Washington Post and The Guardian, the same The Washington Post and The Guardian who routinely are at the front of the pack demanding wars while not telling us of the plan revealed to General Wesley Clark for war and regime change in seven countries in five years.

They only tell you what they want you to hear.

And to paraphrase Glenn Greenwald (who is still sitting on 99% of the Snowden 'leaks'):
Surveillance breeds conformity.

In other words, if people know they are being spied on then they will behave, be 'good' citizens, not protest, do as they are told, act as expected etc.

I mean, where are the mass protests against all this surveillance?

And Snowden has also been used to demand yet more surveillance powers because, the spies say, he has been assisting al Qaeda by revealing how we are spied on, when it was we who created, nurtured and protected al Qaeda through a Covenant of Security, and have created a monster in Islamic State by encouraging Jihadis to go to Iraq and Syria who will become a threat to national security when they return!

It's like MH17 and all the contradictory claims of who allegedly shot the BUK missile from which location while many eyewitness statements of fighter jets close to MH17 are ignored and the activities of the Ukraine Air Force and Ukraine's BUKs are also ignored: A FARCE!!

I wonder what happened to all those reports about Whitehall and Buckingham Palace kiddie-fiddling...
