What's the Cost of FREEDOM?


Rendition is a new suspense thriller coming out this Friday. According Wikipedia, Extraordinary rendition and irregular rendition are terms used to describe the extrajudicial transfer of a person from one state to another, and the term Torture by proxy is used by some critics to describe extraordinary rendition by the United States, with regard to the alleged transfer of suspected terrorists to countries known to employ harsh interrogation techniques that may rise to the level of torture. The point of this article is not to promote the movie, but to raise an important question… What is the cost of freedom?

In this day and age terrorist attacks can happen anywhere at anytime. Terrorism is a matter of viewpoint. 9/11 was a terrible thing but how different is that than some of the things the US and other democratic Christian countries have done?

In the Bay of Pigs we funded and participated in with the “rebels" to over the Castro Cuba. From family that are navy seals and in other stealth government agencies; we have called politicians in small countries demand certain Pro-US actions or he would be killed. These conversations often occur when a team of navy seals are in the politician compounds with orders to kill them.

Whether you agree or disagree with the current war, it was the first of its kind. It was marketed to the masses through new teams on the ground streaming live footage.

Many things go into your freedom one of things are the killing of those that threaten it.

Would you rather know and see what your freedom cost or would prefer ignorance and go back to watching reality TV with a light heart?

I understand right now its easy to jump on the band wagon that this is a bush article, but its not.

The president is far too much credit for the good and the bad. But they are simply the face that sells you ("the people") on the plan, but things like secret prison will happen with or without their approval. Not too mention disapproving too strongly has led to president assassinations. Just think about JFK and Regan.

Wow, you just earned yourself the suntimes_blogger_grammy award lol. New to your blog as you can see, but cutting to the chase I would rather know and see what my freedom would cost. B/C as a society we are blinded and manipulated by bullshit reality Television and other pop culture media.

Nice post!
