In a transparent repeat of the paintball terrorist op in Ottawa (and the absurd bust of innocents in London)—designed to remind American, Canadian, and British subjects they must surrender what remains of their beleaguered civil liberties—the FBI has announced they have raided "a suspected terror cell based in Miami," according to the Ministry of Hysterical Propaganda, ABC News division.
"The group has been under surveillance for some time and was infiltrated by a government informant who allegedly led them to believe he was an Islamic radical, a Justice Department official said."
In other words, an FBI agent, pretending to be an "Islamic radical" and a putative "al-Qaeda operative," convinced a handful of patsies to "discuss" the targeting of the Sears Tower in Chicago and supposedly federal facilities in Miami.
In a repeat of the Ottawa theatrical event, the alleged terrorists, with "possible ties with Al Qaeda" (of course), are "teenagers and young adults," according to the International Security Research & Intelligence Agency, billed as "analysts and experts at your service to identify, analyse and assess any issue related to your safety and your entreprise’s and/or institution's (sic)." In short, it appears the FBI has exploited the naivete of kids, more accustomed to blowing up skyscrapers in video games than in real life.
According to the aforementioned "source," the dupes in Miami are possibly "Black Muslims," although this was not mentioned by the corporate media as of this writing (AG Gonzales is scheduled to hold a press conference). "Sources say the arrests reflect the government's concern about so-called 'homegrown terrorists.' It's a threat FBI Director Robert Mueller discussed during a recent speech in New York," ABC News continues. Translation: increasingly, the "threat" is domestic, thus a police state becomes more palatable at home, with "Black Muslims" (i.e., the Nation of Islam) and other boogiemen replacing distant and less hysteria-inspiring cave-dwelling terrorists.
"One law enforcement official, who requested anonymity because the investigation was ongoing, said the arrests illustrated how federal authorities were rooting out threats at their earliest stages," reports the Los Angeles Times. "Televised images of FBI agents swarming a warehouse in the Liberty City area of Miami highlighted the possibility of an unusual homegrown case of domestic terrorism." Of course, now that the "al-Qaeda" threat is increasingly "homegrown," such staged events will become less "unusual" and will in fact become cours de rigueur.
“A man identified as a member of the ‘Seas of David’ religious group told CNN on Thursday that five of his fellow members were among those arrested and that they had no connection to terrorists,” explains Reuters. “‘We are not terrorists. We are members of David, Seas of David,’ said the man, identified as Brother Corey. He said the group had ’soldiers’ in Chicago, but reiterated it was peaceful movement. Miami media said the group of men sold hair grease and shampoo in the streets. Some worked on construction crews.”
A Google search on “Seas of David” returns no results. “Perhaps it’s only a Davidian-related threat, a new conflict between ‘Davidians’ who fight with ‘Babylonians’ (federal authorities). It needs a thorough investigation” a US source told ISRIA, linked above. Of course, the word “Davidian” brings to mind the premeditated mass murder of the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas.
Addendum
ABC News reports: “An FBI informant posed as an emissary from al Qaeda and administered oaths of allegiance to the seven Miami men charged today with providing material support to al Qaeda…. An outline of the indictments to be announced later today indicates the men began meeting with an unnamed FBI informant in November 2005. Justice Department officials say the informant provided boots and a video camera so the men could obtain surveillance pictures of government buildings in Miami.”
In other words, this whole affair is a government set-up, engineered to hype the “homegrown” threat of domestic terrorism, that next phase of the neocon effort to trash the Constitution and further militarize society in preparation for World War Four, the generational crusade made in Israel and transplanted in America, the only nation on earth with the required military prowess and a population sufficiently brainwashed and easily frightened by phony terrorists.
