Halperin's The Lawless State
[ send me this paper ]
It would seem that 'free society' is one that is bounded by the ideals of community and assured peace through the auspices of government. This 7 page paper argues that Morton Halperin's book, The Lawless State: The Crimes Of U. S. Intelligence Agencies, while being somewhat dated (first published in 1976), is an intelligent indictment against those agencies where 'covert' is another word for 'power' and the SOP (standard operating procedure) is a misuse of that power as well as a flagrant disregard of the Constitutional rights of their 'victims'. No additional sources are listed.
