Veterans For Peace Denounce Secrecy of Drone Programs"President Barack Obama's administration on Wednesday refused to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request for basic information on its drone programs," remarked President of Veterans For Peace Leah Bolger.  "While programs of assassination ought not to exist at all, this week's response provides further evidence of the extreme secrecy now surrounding so much of what our government does."The White House has refused to disclose to the ACLU or the New York Times basic information on drone programs that amount to war-making, claiming that Congress has insisted on such secrecy, even while rejecting inquiries into the drone programs from Congress as well.  Veterans For Peace supports efforts by the United Nations and the international human rights community to bring U.S. drone programs out into the open.

I suggest if you want to stay on top of  US news coming fast and furious ....

From some place other than Rush Limbaugh, FOX news NEW York and DC right wing media...

Watch David Swanson's blog and his War is a Crime book, blog and other prolific work...

He's surprising and helpful.
