What they do in our name

Future of Freedom Foundation

Thanks to Wikileaks and heroic leakers inside the military, we now know the U.S. government has killed many more innocent Afghan civilians than we were aware of heretofore. We also know that American military and intelligence personnel roam Afghanistan assassinating suspected bad guys. Sometimes they kill people they later acknowledge weren’t bad guys at all. ‘Bad guys,’ like ‘Taliban,’ is implicitly defined as anyone who resists the U.S. occupation force and the corrupt puppet government it keeps in power. What other atrocities are our misleaders and misrepresentatives committing in our name?
