GCHQ: Failure Acknowledged

29-01-2014 17:33

As result of the failure of an assassination attempt against NSA renegade and whistleblower Snowden in which British agencies were involved, Iain Lobban has resigned. The announcement came amidst denial that the resignation had been unprepared, in order to silence the chatter which has long built up within their ranks.

The tactic of controlled opposition like the media, and including John Pilger, is to invent and use the role of "journalist" to put out selective facts, with the purpose of "informing"...the people, that there is nothing...the people can do about those facts.
