FRONTLINE tomorrow: Are We Safer?
Looks like this will be one to watch . . .

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/are-we-safer/

FRONTLINE launches its new monthly magazine program with three reports, led by Are We Safer? In this first story, Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post reporter Dana Priest investigates the terrorism-industrial complex that grew up in the wake of 9/11. Against a backdrop of recent mail bomb threats from Al Qaeda in Yemen and growing concerns about homegrown terrorists, Priest explores the growing reach of homeland security, fusion centers, battlefield technologies, and data collecting into the lives of ordinary Americans. This story is part of an ongoing investigation with the Washington Post -- "Top Secret America" -- that will result in a FRONTLINE film in September, 2011.

Here's a link to a preview:

2. Sure, but not if one thinks starvation, suicides, casualties of war, .. are problems.
What about the total destruction of America as a country. Naw. No problem. Right?
