Wikileaks Video, Vile Massey CEO Blankenship, Obama Orders Assassination of US Citizen 2.4
April 14, 2010, 8:41 a.m.
This week, Wikileaks.org released graphic video of the cold-blooded slaughter of Iraqi civilians in 2007, including the two Reuters journalists picture above, Saeed Chmagh and Namir Noor-Eldeen. While confirming the authenticity of the video, the Pentagonâs response is effectively âSo what?â, which leads one to imagine that the indiscriminate massacre of non-combatants is rather commonplace. This weekâs dirty rotten boss, Don Blankenship of Massey Energy was busy updating his twitter page while his workersâ mourn the loss of their fellow miners, assuring that when his time comes, heâs reserved his first-class express trip to Hell. Hey maggots, Bon appetit! Without historical precedent, a standing US President orders the extra-judicial assassination of a US citizen! Now, thatâs change you can believe in! Finally, we wrap it up with this day in Revolutionary history.
