[quote:Anonymous Coward 43532029:MV8yMjk1ODI5XzM5MDkwMTIyXzRGOEY0OTEw] Nicholas Kristof says in the NY Times that more people die in the US from getting hit by TVs falling out of windows than from terrorists attack in the country. But since 2001 the US gave 8 billion dollars to military and homeland security... And what about the recent preventative measures of experimenting with releasing gas into the NYC subway tunnels to be prepared fro terrorist attacks which cost about 3.2 Mill or something...lol something doesn't add up.

Comment: America's delusion
A comment by Klaus Brinkbäumer
U.S. President Obama imagines himself above the law
The U.S. is sick. The 11th September 2001, it has wounded and bewildered, that's been obvious for almost twelve years, but how serious is the disease that we understand only now. The NSA affair puts some open, not just the phone calls and the digital lives of many millions of people. The spying on the world shows that the U.S. has become manic, that they act pathologically over grip, what they do, is out of proportion to the danger.
