1. I just read the article.
Why are people so willing to overlook all this? I've begun to realize that many people don't care what happens to other people. I suppose it is because they think it can't happen to them.

4. Although I am always dismissed,...I am telling you,...it's psy-ops.
Psy-ops being utilized against the American people.

They don't CALL it that,...anymore,...but, that is what is happening.

Americans, not all mind you, are kinda' like,...well,...verily manipulated.

5. Yes, I did read the article.
A "senior cabinet official" is not one of the witnesses that Habib alleges were there. I'm referring to the Attorney-General, the Foreign Minister, the minister for Defence, the minister for Immigration and the Prime Minister. They are all vile liars who would never stand up for the rights of an individual.
