Whistleblower Daniel Hale was sentenced this week to 4 years in prison. Not for assaulting or killing someone, but for exposing that the US is killing people, en masse, using drones.
And this is happening in Yemen, across the planet from the United States, where the people of Yemen are starving and dying already — while the Saudi Arabian monarchy continues to wage war on them.
Longtime whistleblower reporter Kevin Gosztola, managing editor of Shadowproof.com & co-host of the podcast Unauthorized Disclosure, tells the story of Daniel Hale.
