The rule of law has been lost (Paul Craig Roberts)

Excerpt:

“In contrast, insouciant Americans are content for their government to behave illegally. A majority supports torture despite its illegality, and a McClatchy-Ipsos poll found that 51 percent of Americans agree that “it is necessary to give up some civil liberties in order to make the country safe from terrorism.”

As our Founding Fathers warned, fools who give up liberty for security will have neither.“

We have met the enemy and it is us.

The terrorists have already won.
