American investigative journalists Jeremy Scahill and Glenn Greenwald say they have teamed up to prepare a report on the National Security Agency's role in what one of them described as the "US assassination program."

“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 US assassination program,” Scahill said in Rio de Janeiro, as cited by Associated Press.

Speaking to moviegoers at the Rio Film Festival, where an award-winning documentary based on his book was shown, Scahill said he will be working on the project with another journalist - Glenn Greenwald, who broke the story on the NSA leaker Edward Snowden in June.

The journalists – who were both present at the festival’s Q&A panel – were short on details for their new project and gave no evidence of the alleged US program.

“There are so many stories that are yet to be published that we hope will produce 'actionable intelligence,' or information that ordinary citizens across the world can use to try to fight for change, to try to confront those in power,” said Scahill, a contributor to The Nation magazine and the author of the bestseller 'Dirty Wars: The World Is a Battlefield'.

Contributor to The Nation magazine Jeremy Scahill and Rio-based journalist Glenn Greenwald are working on the project.

“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 US assassination program,” Scahill said on Saturday.

“There are so many stories that are yet to be published that we hope will produce ‘actionable intelligence,’ or information that ordinary citizens across the world can use to try to fight for change, to try to confront those in power,” he added.

Comment by Doug Diggler on September 29, 2013 at 8:20pm: If I were Jeremy Scahill or Glen Greenwald, I would stay out of single engine airplanes or dark alleys or new Mercedes until this story is already published!

Comment by RJO'Guillory on September 29, 2013 at 7:47pm: By announcing their intentions...perhaps they have insulated themselves from some idiotic response ...such as accidentally crashing their $200,000 Auto into a tree at hundred's of (oops! 35) MPH...? If they are causing the NSA heart burn that would be great!
