What does a corrupt government look like?




During the global financial crisis of 2009, three ordinary Australian's uncovered the greatest intelligence scandal in Australia's history. Tens of thousands of security clearances from 'classified' to 'top-secret' were deliberately altered on the orders of government officials for the sake of money.



Those officials didn't care that National Security was being put at risk. To make their money, they deliberately broke the law, ditched Parliament approved procedures, imported untrained staff to do what trained analysts knew was illegal and enforced a strict regime of bullying and coercion.



Chaos, confusion, threats, isolation, segregation, fear, and constant job insecurity were brutally used as a distraction to stop good and honest employees from seeing the corruption going on all around them. It worked well for a while until a few of those deceived employees saw through the deception and exposed the corruption.



Was that the end of it? No! That was only the practice run! A new global crisis was coming, and this time the corruption would not be limited to a small group of people. This time the government officials and their civilian puppets would unleash their practiced brutality onto the entire country.




What do you do when your government becomes your enemy?
