Thank you "I Hate Peacenicks!" for posting the article!This of course wouldn't be the first time that the FBI is used for political -- and not crime-fighting -- ends. In the 1980s, the FBI spied on groups opposed to Reagan's carnage in Central America. Prior to that, the FBI had COINTELPRO under their belt and the debacle at Pine Ridge (BTW, Leonard Peltier should be released!!!). Before that, harrassment against Martin Luther King. Thus, the current demonstrators are in good company.It would seem that by now, the FBI, with the Wen Ho Lee case and that of their double-agent in California who was sleeping with their agents, would have no credibility left. (Oops. did I forget to mention: NO PROGRESS ON THE ANTHRAX?) Yet for some reason, the agency manages to survive.
