Obama-era surveillance worse than Stasi: Stone
SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain: US film director Oliver Stone on Thursday accused President Barack Obama’s administration of implementing a surveillance system worse than that of the feared Stasi secret police in East Germany.
Speaking at the San Sebastian film festival in **rthern Spain, where he presented his film “S**wden,” Stone said many in the US had grown disillusioned with a president they once saw as “a man of great integrity.” “On the contrary, Obama has doubled down on the George W Bush administration policies,” said Stone, whose latest movie is a biographical political thriller about Edward S**wden, the former intelligence contractor who revealed a vast US surveillance programme in 2013. Obama “has created... the most massive global security surveillance state that’s ever been seen, way beyond East Germany’s Stasi, way beyond that.” “In the name of one thing -- terrorism -- to change all the rules is **t a marginal response, it’s an extreme response,” he told reporters. “Let’s beware of fascists and tyrants who tell us ‘we are going to protect you’. I don’t want that.” This is far from the first time that Stone has dabbled in politics, having directed “Platoon” about the Vietnam War, “JFK” and “Nixon” among a host of other films. He insisted “there was ** agenda” behind the release of his latest movie just weeks ahead of US elections, but said he hoped Obama would pardon S**wden, who currently lives in Russia after escaping his homeland. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Obama-era surveillance worse than Stasi: Stone || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
