#166 / Prying



The image above is from the Summer 2013 edition of Earth Island Journal. The cover story is called "Prying Eyes," and documents how corporations and law enforcement agencies are spying on environmentalists, who are being investigated as part of the "war on terror." 

It is a pretty disturbing article, over all, particularly if you are one of those environmental "terrorists" who don't like fracking. Oops! Count me in their number. 

Are we ready, yet, to start dismantling the national security state? Or, are we still more afraid of foreign terrorists than we are of our corporate keepers?

I recommend the article, as we ponder the answer.
