Has the FBI ever stopped a bomb plot that didn't originate with its informants ? The tactics don't change, just the target. This same tactic has been used against Muslims since 9-11, and the far Right since the 60's. If you want to disrupt or discredit a group of people who are dissatisfied with the way the country is going, just have an informant organize a bomb plot, then look for patsies to rope into going along. http://www.csmonitor.com/layout/set/print/content/view/print/503728
"the far right since the '60s". Read up on 'Coin tel-pro' where the Feds used similer tactics against the Black Panthers and other 'left wing' groups.
I know about COINTELPRO, that's what I was refering to. COINTELPRO was allegedly ended in the 70's, but it's still going strong.
