The only issue I take with this wonderful two minute speech is when it says: "The Government at times tells you lies" I would remove the "at times". As he says in the next line: "the deception is historic and continuous." Any way it is a great speech:

Does the government want you to know that it has killed innocent civilians in Afganistan? Of Course Not!
Does it want you to know that it has dispatched hit squads to kill civilians in Afganistan that it hates and fears in violation of American Law, Afgan Law and International Law? Of course not! ...
