The FBI and CIA and other law enforcement or "intelligence" agencies have always infiltrated and entrapped people and organizations. Now, thanks to the laughingly named Patriot Act and other post-9/11 power grabs, we can add the NSA and DHS etc. to the list of permanent state operatives who are out there securing the world for corporate psychopaths.
Did the "conservatives" just never think it could happen to them? Or have they really not been paying any attention for the past 50+ years as it happened again and again to leftists and leftist groups?
Not saying they deserve it; just saying: "welcome to the party, slowpokes".
