Why Did the Government Go After Yemen Drone Program Whistleblower Daniel Hale?

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.

At Breakthrough News we believe in the power of independent media. Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape — controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. They control the news cycle, to which social media and even most “alternative” media is forced to respond. We are breaking through that cycle.

We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities — because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.

People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.

We can be that media arm, but only with your help. Become a Patron and join us on the front lines in the battle of ideas.
