There is a more than strong enough case of government abuse of power and wrongdoing, there's no need to make allusions to shadowy conspiracies that kill people without leaving any evidence. It weakens the argument rather than strengthening it. Stand on the facts, the facts are more than good enough.
I don't know where you got "allusions to shadowy conspiracies that kill people" from. I posted (a) a story about a reporter being very publicly persecuted for investigative reporting unfriendly to the government status quo and (b) referred to the quite well established fact that money tends to make people forget their ideals.

The espionage-industrial complex is on the order of a $50 billion/year industry. That kind of money buys a lot of ignoring american ideals.
Don't peddle this bullshit.
