Full playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9C002BA752B5FF5E A 2006 French documentary film about Sibel Edmonds. The US government has taken some extreme measures to silence former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds. This documentary focuses on both Ms. Edmonds's personal struggle to expose the criminality that she uncovered while at the FBI, and also the 'secret' itself - a vast network of nuclear black-market, narcotics and illegal arms trafficking activities.... Sibel Dinez Edmonds, a Turkish-American, was "hired as a translator by the FBI shortly after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 because of her knowledge of Middle Eastern languages. She was fired less than a year later in March 2002 for reporting shoddy work and security breaches to her supervisors that could have prevented those attacks." "On January 14, 2004, the Justice Department's Office unclassified summary of the Justice Department's Inspector General's report on Edmonds found that many of her claims 'were supported, that the FBI did not take them seriously enough, and that her allegations were, in fact, the most significant factor in the FBI's decision to terminate her services.'" Contents Silencing Sibel On April 21, 2005, a "day after taking the extraordinary step of ordering a secret hearing," the Washington, D.C., U.S. Court of Appeals "denied pleas to open the former FBI translator's First Amendment case to the public," taking what James Ridgeway called "another twist..., as the government continued its seemingly endless machinations to shut her up...." Source: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Sibel_Edmonds It's a sordid tale of a true American patriot, who, after discovering high-levels of espionage, corruption and bribery of high-level U.S. officials by Turkish nationals, was turned into a pariah by the Bush Administration instead of being congratulated. It is the story of someone who refused to give up and continues to fight, basically against all odds. Sibel and these other whistle-blowers need our support- so let's make sure this movie is shown. http://justacitizen.com/KillTheMessenger.html http://sibeledmonds.blogspot.com/ code pour embarquer la vidéo : >>> http://www.youtube.com/embed/e-ZPKmoF_Ic <<< |
