"The time is fast approaching when to call a man a patriot will be the deepest insult you can offer him. Patriotism now means advocating plunder in the interests of the privileged classes of the particular State system into which we have happened to be born."

E. Belfort Bax

Freedom Watch is a small non-profit watchdog website set up for those concerned about the erosion of freedom in Western Democracies.

We are not radicals; we are not revolutionaries; we are not political extremists; we are not neoconservatives; we are not communists; we do not own guns (although respect the rights of some people to do so); we do not advocate violence of any kind; and we are not members of any political organisation in the normal sense of the word. We are just ordinary people concerned with ordinary freedoms: the freedom to say and think what we want; the freedom to feel safe and empowered; the freedom to determine our society's future; the freedom to be healthy; the freedom to breath clean air and eat uncontaminated food; the freedom for our children to have a future; and the freedom not to be parasited on by governments, corporations and other special-interest groups.

Most "freedom" organisations, especially in the USA, tend to hide neocon political agendas behind a façade of blind patrotism, with copious flag graphics and "support our troops" slogans, because they know that patriotism is one of the most powerful means to manipulate people into acting in ways not in their own interest. It is patriotism that enables us to project our evil onto other nations, so that we never awaken to the tyranny at the core of our own society and legal systems.

Freedom Watch champions humanity as a whole, putting people before ideology. And whilst we reject patriotism, we do strongly believe that national sovereignty should be respected and upheld, and not swept aside by larger multi-national organisations such as the EU and the NAFTA without full and informed consent of the people. Unity looks good on paper, but what is happening around the world is a unity in slavery, not a unity in freedom. It is actually respect for diversity that makes society free, and with that respect a natural human-to-human unity develops (very different from the commercial/market unity that allows the banking system to control everyone).

This site is a work in progress and will grow organically over time.

Thanks for visiting Freedom Watch.
