    * "If people intend to be informed, they must turn to foreign news broadcasts, to Internet sites, (or) to foreign newspapers available on the Internet. People ask me where they can get reliable information. I tell them that their goal cannot be reached without their commitment of time."

 

    * "Here I have to reveal a trade secret, which punctures the mystique of intelligence analysis. Generally speaking, 80% of the information one needs to form judgments on key intelligence targets or issues is available in open media."

 

    * "Former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter told a packed crowd to stop whining about corporate media and become their own intelligence operatives. 'We the people have the same resources and tools that intelligence networks rely heavily on; it's called Google. As our own intelligence operatives we can't allow CNN, FOX, NBC, and ABC to edit and cherry pick information, but ask questions and find the answers ourselves.'"

 

    * "Many apparently separate developing daily events don't make the slightest sense, if you don't look at them in their strategic context. In the face of Orwellian control of the media, it is even more necessary, to judge contemporary developments with the eye of an historian, who has not forgotten the lessons of [history]."
