Not Really A Surprise
July 21, 2014 at 10:27 pm

Quote:WASHINGTON -- The undercover terrorism stings that the FBI has conducted in the years since Sept. 11, 2001, are coming under new scrutiny this week, with the government being portrayed as using compromised informants to go after vulnerable individuals who may have never done anything had they not been targeted by the feds.

A lengthy investigative report by Human Rights Watch and Columbia Law School’s Human Rights Institute entitled “Illusion of Justice” takes on the controversial “sting” operations that law enforcement officials have defended as an essential element of the federal government’s counterterrorism strategy.

No I doubt it very much.

We - I mean they - likely have better things to do . . .

What's the official verdict on 911?
