U.S. Goverment Responds to EFF's Indymedia Motion

Posted by samzenpus on from the again-and-again dept.

bergwitz writes "In a response to EFF's motion to unseal, the U.S. government claims that Indymedia hard drives were seized as part of an international "criminal terrorism investigation," and thus the U.S. District Court's gag order should be upheld." This will help refresh your memory.

      I define a terrorist as someone who is willing to use terror against civilians as a means to further their cause. By this definition, the US administration is a terrorist organisation. Not only that, I believe that the US can now be classed as a religiously fanatic state sponsor of terrorism.

      You should let us all know where you got your crack from as we all would like to know what makes you skip out from reality from one sentance to another.

      The US didn't blow up unarmed at distance individuals going to work (9/11). The US is not led by rich jerks like Bin Laden or Sadam who's sole purpose in life is to use religeon as an excuse to accumulate power and kill people who do not agree with his views.

      Your just ticked as the US founders has good sense to seperate church and state. Your ticked because you cannot join the brown (Nati) or Al-queda and be a bigger jerk. If Bush were to kill his political enemies he would not last long.

      That's the good part about democracy, even average people have the expectation, the right and the realization of peace and prosperity.

      But there are always will be those that would rather have society in fear, chains and repression.

      And I am not even an American. Just happy as hell the democracy I live in does not permit our leader to kill me because I don't see eye to eye with them nor do I go to their church.

      Hey, nothing to stop you from participating in the big J'Had.

    Exactly what I have posted before, Iraq was better off with Saddam Hussein before our regime started it's illegal, unjust, and completely uncalled for invasion of a sovereign nation murdering over 100,000 innocent civilians inlcuding women and children and that number is growing every second. The problem is you need to change your mentality to accomodate for the wholesale discrimination and destruction of liberty this regime stands for, look at the Patriot Act.

    This should help you:
