5 Ways the Government Shutdown Isn't Slowing Down Warmongers

Warmongering Continuing Full Speed Ahead

The government shutdown isn’t slowing down the warmongers.  For example:

• The CIA is ramping up covert training program for Syrian rebels

• President Obama has waived a ban on aiding regimes that use child soldiers

• The Department of Defense awarded 94 new contracts worth a combined total of more than $5 billion dollars the day right before the government shutdown
• DoD will continue to award contracts during the shutdown … but will stop publicly announcing them
• The giant $2 billion dollar NSA spying center in Utah is still opening (the NSA is part of the Department of Defense, which carries out assassination and cyber-warfare campaigns, as well as destroying the privacy of American citizens)
