The U.S. shift into the dark

The U.S. has taken a long walk on "the dark side".

As a consequence Aaron Dykes breaks down how "Darth Vader" has now got a stranglehold on America as the empire strikes back against ordinary citizens and the rule of law.

He writes:
Would it be taken as parody to openly state that the United States has moved away from its Constitution, and the hope that its concept of freedom would be a light upon the world, and instead shifted towards ‘The Dark Side’– that is, the kind of evil empire portrayed in Star Wars? The language authorizing the indefinite detention of American citizens without trial under the sections 1031 & 1032 of the 2012 Defense Authorization Act take America many steps towards that fictional but importantly symbolic Empire– it too a broken and corrupted Republic.
Dykes' in depth-researched article was posted Saturday at Prison Planet here.
