My testimony to the UN commission on Dag Hammarskjold's plane crash is mentioned in their report

I was one of three Americans to testify to a new commission that has been reinvestigating the death of Dag Hammarskjold for the last year. I'm named in the report that is now out. Please see my summary of the report over at Consortium News here: http://consortiumnews.com/2013/09/16/the-mysterious-death-of-a-un-hero/

There are two worlds - one in which covert operations are well known, and one in which they are barely known at all. Which do you live in? You really can't understand what's going on in the world if you don't have a good grounding in covert operations. You will remain forever one of the "sheeple" the intelligence agenices laugh about and take advantage of. Don't be that person. We need informed citizens, not sheeple, if we want to improve our lot in life and in the lives of others.

The government's case for an attack in Syria is REALLY thin

"Most people are rightly incensed over what appears to have been gruesome chemical weapons attacks in Syria. No one questions that the current regime’s crackdown on dissidents has been obscenely violent. No one questions the brutality of the Syrian ruling family over multiple generations. But the evidence is far from conclusive that the recent chemical weapon attacks were ordered by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad."

Read the rest of my article summarizing many of the reasons to doubt the government's case re attacking Syria over at Consortium News here: http://consortiumnews.com/2013/09/04/the-still-sketchy-intel-on-syria/.

While you're there, check out the slew of articles about Syria there. I tried to summarize some of the best pieces of information that have come out in the last week re the latest attack, and who was, or wasn't, behind it.
