Damage Control: Downplaying
WikiLeaks Revelations
By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman300710.htm

Antiwar sentiment must challenge official policy, enlisting others to resist and back efforts to revive a sick economy, lift living standards, save social benefits, and the remnants of democratic freedoms, fast eroding in America by design, the prospect too horrific to accept, making bad governance essential to change. If not now, when? If not us, who? If that's not incentive enough, what is?
