If it wasn't America it would be another county, I know. Japan has a reputation of being ruthless imperialists, so lucky they're kept under control. Every country's citizens needs to reign in its elite, who seem, collectively, to be pretty psychopathic.

The U.S. government isn't protecting us from terrorism.
The U.S. government is creating the terror. It is, in fact, the source of the terror.
Just think about it for a minute: almost every tyranny being perpetrated against the citizenry--purportedly to keep us safe and the nation secure--has come about as a result of some threat manufactured in one way or another by our own government.
Unfortunately, as I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, "we the people" are the ones who keep reaping what the government sows.
