When you have an empire, you get wars without enemies

When you have an empire, you get wars without enemies, and criminals in charge of enforcing the law â€

“ that’s just the way it works.

It’s really an amazing story, this poor lady was in the wrong place at the wrong time. After September

11th, she was a patriotic American citizen, an immigrant who decided she’d get a job at the THEM

helping them translate foreign languages in their counter-terrorism section and she just so happened to

stumble across something near the core of the crime syndicate that controls the United States of

America. Of course, her name is Sibel Edmonds, and she’s got a gag order. She can say some things that

have already been revealed one way or other – she can reiterate them, but she has never really been

able to tell her full story in public. The story has always been of interest to me, but it’s so

complicated and convoluted that I always have a hard time keeping up and making sense of the story –

so I always turn to my friend Luke Ryland. He writes the great blog wotisitgood4 and he’s basically my

walking crib-sheet for cheating on the Sibel Edmonds test and keeping track of this story. Welcome to

the show, Luke.

Ryland: Thanks Scott. Good to be here.

Horton: It’s good to talk to you my friend.
