New NSA Revelations

Jeremy Scahill, a
contributor to The Nation magazine and the New York Times best-selling author
of "Dirty Wars," said he will be working with Glenn Greenwald, the
Rio-based journalist who has written stories about U.S. surveillance programs
based on documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
"The connections
between war and surveillance are clear. I don't want to give too much away but
Glenn and I are working on a project right now that has at its center how the
National Security Agency plays a significant, central role in the U.S.
assassination program," said Scahill, speaking to moviegoers in Rio de

"Dirty Wars" the
film, directed by Richard Rowley, traces Scahill's investigations into the
Joint Special Operations Command, or JSOC. The movie, which won a prize for
cinematography at the Sundance Film Festival, follows Scahill as he hopscotches
around the globe, from Afghanistan to Yemen to Somalia, talking to the families
of people killed in the U.S. strikes.
Neither Scahill nor
Greenwald, who also appeared at the film festival's question and answer panel,
provided many details about their joint project.
Greenwald has been making
waves since the first in a series of stories on the NSA spying program appeared
in Britain's Guardian newspaper in June. Last week, Brazilian President Dilma
Rousseff postponed a scheduled state dinner with Obama after television reports
to which Greenwald had contributed revealed that American spy programs had
aggressively targeted the Brazilian government and private citizens.
