Beyond Snowden. US General Cartwright indicted for espionage.
Tue 4:16 pm +00:00, 2 Jul 2013 2Beyond Snowden: US General Cartwright has been indicted for espionage
While the world focuses on Washington’s pursuit of NSA whistleblower Ed Snowden, another much more high ranking member of the US power structure has been indicted for espionage this week…
US General James Cartwright was regarded by Washington insiders as ‘Obama’s General’, and now he’s facing prosecution for blowing the whistle on ‘Operation Olympic Games’ which planted the Stuxnet and Flame viruses in Iranian nuclear facilities in order derail Iran’s civilian nuclear program. At closer examination, it appears that Cartwright’s revelations didn’t so much harm US interests per say, but they hindered Israeli ambitions towards a war with Iran.
But why espionage? What is the line between “whistleblowing” and “espionage” in America today?
Journalist Thierry Meyssan give us a historical perspective and tells is what it really means…
While the international press plays up the information leaked by Edward Snowden as a revelation concerning the PRISM surveillance program, feigning to have discovered what everyone should already have known for a long time, Thierry Meyssan, is particularly curious about the meaning of this rebellion. From this perspective, he attaches more importance to the case of General Cartwright, who has also been indicted for espionage.Thierry Meyssan
The answer to this question does not depend on our own political opinions, but on the nature of the U.S. government. The answer completely changes if we focus on the case of Bradley Manning, the young leftist Wikileaks soldier, or if we consider that of General Cartwright, military adviser to President Obama, indicted Thursday, 27 June 2013, for spying.

Cartwright looks like somebody familiar, an actor perhaps, will be thinking tonight.
Looks like the film star that was stuck in a sky scraper with a Black guy, then it blew up.
