Nigerian junk mail (SCAM)

Today I received the following email from "Gilbert Brown". Man, these guys are still at it! The wording and needless formality is so laughable. I guess Internet cafes in Nigeria cost next to nothing. These people definitely missed their calling...and judging by the language used it was about two centuries ago. Booyah!
Anyway, he's barking up the wrong ideological tree. I don't give a crap about the United Nations.
BUT it does make for an amusing read. Enjoy (with a spot of tea):

EU anger over NSA shenanigans turning inward

Yep that pretty much hits the nail on the head.
The USA is a damn police state spying on enemies, countrymen and allies alike. But Americans are either too damn nationalistic (harping on illegal immigration, welfare recipients, Muslims) and/or distracted (celebrity worship and reality TV) to care to notice.

Germans have organized protests at one alleged NSA outpost outside Frankfurt (the main organizer told the Spiegel news magazine that German police officers showed up on his doorstep after he wrote, jokingly, on Facebook about planning a nature walk around the U.S. facility). In Berlin, one person projected a sign that said “United Stasi of America” on the wall of the U.S. Embassy.

We Steal Secrets
-
Last night I saw the documentary We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks.
Since Wikileaks is now a household name there was much I already knew about the organization and the frontman, Julian Assange, and Bradley Manning. BUT there's helluva lot I did not know. Like how crazy Manning was!
It's a complete head-scratcher why the military allowed this little drama fairy to stay in the ranks. BUT THEY DID; and his noted unhinged personality finally unhinged a shitload of diplomatic cables and damning videos into the public domain (some of which, incidentally, was already published; thus his prosecution of sharing classified information is hypocritical. Manning is being persecuted for being the messenger, not the message). The private snapped back as any nerd would: he countered his superiors on his own un-muscular turf. Take that! he seemed to laugh.
Don't misunderstand: the knowledge and images a personnel in his position had to live with deserved to be brought into the light. Turn on the lights, turn out the rats. Torturing and killing people like video game targets is un-American, inhumane, wrong. A wrong deed is not made righteous by virtue of being done by the United States of America.
The interviews given by various persons, including disenchanted former Wikileaks volunteers and the former head of the CIA, make for a well-rounded movie about the genesis of Assange and his hacking prowess...and this business of stealing dark gov't secrets.
