A Good American



After the end of the Cold War the best code-breaker the US ever had together with a small team within NSA starts to develop a revolutionary surveillance program. It can pick up any electronic signal on earth, filter it for targets, render results in real time and all of it without invading privacy.

The program is perfect – except for one detail: it’s too low cost. Therefore the tax dollar hungry NSA management dumps it – three weeks prior to 9/11! When in the aftermath of the attack NSA starts its mass surveillance of Americans, the code-breaker leaves the agency. A friend takes over and manages to revive the program in early 2002...

One of the most important stories of the information society that reveals the inner workings of a politicoeconomic network whose reach goes way beyond America.


A documentary by Friedrich Moser.

Friedrich Moser with Matthieu Lietaert created the 2012 revealing documentary "The Brussels Business", which is actually a detailed summary of how the lobbyists came to occupy the EU, imposing the neoliberal agenda. The one that now destroys Greece and other countries through memorandums by troika (ECB, IMF, European Commission).

The Brussels Business is actually a docu-thriller that dives into the grey zone underneath European democracy. An expedition into the world of the 15,000 lobbyists in the EU-capital, of the PR-conglomerates, think tanks and their all embracing networks of power and their close ties to the political elites.

The documentary also describes the ongoing struggle of groups of activists, like those of the Corporate Europe Observatory, to expose the secret procedures who led to the complete occupation of the European Institutions by banking/corporate groups of interests at the expense of the real Democracy in Europe.

Israel CAUGHT Spying On Trump & HERE’S WHY!

The Jimmy Dore Show   What does Donald Trump do to stop Netanyahu, or punish Netanyahu, after he openly defies him and after Donald Trump knows that Israel's intelligence services are spying on him? It appears that he has done nothing.

Zionists pushed Trump into the war with Iran but this was not the primary reason for this catastrophic decision

by system failure     It is widely reported by various analysts that Trump's catastrophic decision to start a war with Iran, came as a result of the pressure from Netanyahu regime and the Zionist lobby in US. While we can't ignore the strong influence of the Zionist factor on Trump and its significant role on dragging him into such a catastrophe, this was probably not the primary reason for the latest US-Iran war.  One has to look first at Venezuela and the unprecedented and rather bizarre operation there to remove Nicolas Maduro from power, in order to understand the deeper reasoning behind such a risky decision by Trump against Iran. The uniqueness of the operation in Venezuela by the US imperialist beast, has to do not only with the blatant violation of international law with almost zero pretexts, but also with the fact that the rest of the Maduro administration was left untouched and permitted to remain in power. This shows that the primary goal of this operation was ...

It's official: Iran won the war, and the US lost - This is how

Geopolitical Economy Report  The US government has signed an agreement to end its war on Iran. It is now widely admitted that Washington lost, and Tehran won. Ben Norton explains why Donald Trump failed, and how this has massive geopolitical implications for the Global South.

Iranian Professor Vali Nasr Reveals the TRUTH of Iran War

Cyrus Janssen  Professor Vali Nasr is one of the world’s leading experts on Iran, the Middle East, and U.S. foreign policy. In this exclusive interview, Nasr explains why the recent conflict may have strengthened Iran rather than weakened it, what Washington continues to misunderstand about Tehran, and whether the region has entered a new geopolitical era. They discuss Iran’s nuclear ambitions, the country’s relationship with China, America’s changing position in the world, and why 2026 could become a turning point for the Middle East.   

How Western societies lost their faith in Vision

Why people don't rise up massively today? Why there are no real revolutions? How we tolerate all things that have been imposed to us? These questions come up in people's minds more and more often today in Greece and abroad, due to the economic crisis. Some theories are circulated as an answer, among these, explanations which include, for example, the psychosynthesis of modern Greeks, but the truth is that there is something more fundamental behind this passive behaviour and concerns not only Greece, but the entire Western world. by system failure Prior to the beginning of the 20th century, Friedrich Nietzsche declares God's death and Western world will put all its hopes in science. Laplace's Determinism leads to the almighty man, who through science, can find all the answers for the world. Technology, which naturally comes from scientific discoveries, promises prosperity and a better life for the majority. Science becomes the central "pylon...

Trump CAVES On Uranium & Ballistic Missiles!

The Jimmy Dore Show   Jimmy Dore and Glenn Greenwald argue that President Trump is engaging in a stark retreat from earlier hardline positions on Iran by signaling acceptance of both Iranian uranium enrichment for civilian energy purposes and allowing Iran to possess conventional ballistic missiles. The two contend that these comments amount to major concessions, with Jimmy describing them as “another big win for Iran” and evidence that the administration has abandoned key objectives it previously promoted. Greenwald cites the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, arguing that Iran has the same right as other signatory nations to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes and notes that previous agreements imposed unusually strict inspections on Iran’s program. The segment emphasizes Trump’s remarks that “it’s a little bit unfair for them not to have some” ballistic missiles and that restrictions on civilian nuclear energy require “a little common sense.” 

Πως οι δημοσκόποι χειραγωγούν την κοινή γνώμη υπέρ του καθεστώτος Μητσοτάκη

Ένα χαρακτηριστικό παράδειγμα του system failure Άλλο ένα τσουνάμι δημοσκοπήσεων σαρώνει τα μυαλά των Ελλήνων, το οποίο αναμένεται να δυναμώσει όσο πλησιάζουμε στις εκλογές και όσο τα νέα πολιτικά κόμματα θα μπαίνουν πιο βαθιά στο πολιτικό παιχνίδι. Υπάρχουν ουκ ολίγα παραδείγματα που δείχνουν ότι οι δημοσκοπήσεις στην ουσία χρησιμοποιούνται για να δημιουργήσουν το επιθυμητό κλίμα για το καθεστώς Μητσοτάκη, παρά για να μετρήσουν απλώς τις δυνάμεις των κομμάτων σε κάθε χρονική στιγμή. Θα θέλαμε όμως να σταθούμε σε ένα συγκεκριμένο ερώτημα που οι εταιρίες συμπεριλαμβάνουν στις ¨μετρήσεις¨ τους όλο και πιο συχνά και ειδικά μετά την εμφάνιση των κομμάτων Τσίπρα και Καρυστιανού στην πολιτική αρένα. Οι ερωτώμενοι λοιπόν καλούνται να απαντήσουν αν θέλουν "πολιτική αλλαγή" ή "σταθερότητα". Χωρίς να χρειάζεται περαιτέρω ανάλυση, είναι ξεκάθαρο ότι από μόνο του αυτό το μανιχαϊστικού τύπου ερώτημα, είναι ουσιαστικά η γραμμή του καθεστώτος για το τι σημαίνει σταθερότητα, που εί...
