Obama Administration Looking To Resolve Contraception Controversy

February 8th, 2012

CNN

By: Brianna Keilar

After an avalanche of criticism, the White House is working on a way to thread the needle on a new health care policy which will require all employers-including religious institutions-to cover contraception in their health insurance plans.

Policy makers are angling for a loophole that would ensure women receive coverage without forcing Catholic charities, hospitals and institutions to pay for it, two senior administration sources told CNN Wednesday.

The administration is especially interested in the Hawaii model, in which female employees of religious institutions can purchase contraceptive coverage directly from the insurer at the same price offered to employees of all other employers.

Sources said policy makers are also looking at laws in 28 states that have similar coverage requirements.

One source prominent in the progressive Catholic community said the Hawaii plan is a “reasonably good vehicle to try” for a solution that can allay the concerns of Obama’s Catholic allies.

Another favored plan, the source said, would be legislation that would allow women employed by religiously-affiliated employers to get contraceptive insurance from the exchanges created under Obama’s sweeping health care reform, rather than from their employer’s insurer.

But the source added the administration has not yet reached out to leaders in the progressive Catholic community to work on a compromise.

Senior administration sources said while the Hawaii plan has appeal, it would not work nationally because the federal government cannot compel insurers to provide a side-contraception plan.

As for a timeframe, policymakers will announce their decision when the Department of Health and Human Services officially releases the rule, sources said.

The new policy stirred an outcry last week among conservatives and religious groups–particularly Catholics, whose teaching opposes abortion and the use of contraceptives.

While churches are exempt from the rule, hospitals and schools with religious affiliations must comply. The new policy goes into effect on August 1, but religious groups will have a year-long extension to enforce the rule.

While the regulations have caused a firestorm of criticism, a new study released by the Public Religion Research Institute shows the majority of Catholics support the administration’s plan. Nearly 6 out of 10 Catholics think employers should be required to provide this kind of insurance coverage. Among Catholic voters, support for the measure is slightly lower at 52%.

The administration first signaled it was softening its stance on the rule on Tuesday, when White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said the administration was seeking alternative solutions for the issue.

“The president’s interest at a policy level is in making sure that this coverage is extended to all women because it’s important,” Carney said. “(On) the other side is finding the right balance…concerns about religious beliefs and convictions. So we will, in this transition period …seek to find ways to implement that policy that allay some of those concerns.”

On Wednesday House Speaker John Boehner called the policy an “ambiguous attack on religious freedom” and announced the chamber would pursue legislative action to prevent the rule from going into effect.

“If the president does not reverse the department’s attack on religious freedom, then the Congress, acting on behalf of the American people, and the constitution, that we’re sworn to uphold and defend, must,” Boehner said on the House floor, adding the Energy and Commerce committee would spearhead the effort.

The Republican presidential candidates have also been vocal about the policy on the campaign trail. Frontrunner Mitt Romney has said he would eliminate the rule on his first day in office.

But on Thursday the White House hit back repeating an argument used by Romney’s GOP opponents and pointing to a Massachusetts law in effect while Romney was governor that required hospitals-including Catholic ones-to provide emergency contraception to rape victims.

“This is I think ironic that Mitt Romney is expressing – criticizing the president for pursuing a policy that is virtually identical to the one that was in place when he was governor of Massachusetts,” Carney said.

Romney, however, vetoed the original bill, and his veto was overridden by the state legislature. Responding to Carney’s remarks on Thursday, the candidate said Carney needs to “check his history.”

“I worked very hard to get the legislature to remove all of the mandated coverages, including contraception,” Romney said during a media availability. “So quite clearly he needs to understand that was a provision that got there before I did and it was one that I fought to remove.”

Corruption Scandal Shakes Vatican As Internal Letters Leaked

January 26, 2012

Reuters

By Philip Pullella

“Thou Shalt Not …” –KTRN

The Vatican was shaken by a corruption scandal Thursday after an Italian television investigation said a former top official had been transferred against his will after complaining about irregularities in awarding contracts.

The show “The Untouchables” on the respected private television network La 7 Wednesday night showed what it said were several letters that Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, who was then deputy-governor of Vatican City, sent to superiors, including Pope Benedict, in 2011 about the corruption.

The Vatican issued a statement Thursday criticizing the “methods” used in the journalistic investigation. But it confirmed that the letters were authentic by expressing “sadness over the publication of reserved documents.”

As deputy governor of the Vatican City for two years from 2009 to 2011, Vigano was the number two official in a department responsible for maintaining the tiny city-state’s gardens, buildings, streets, museums and other infrastructure.

Vigano, currently the Vatican’s ambassador in Washington, said in the letters that when he took the job in 2009 he discovered a web of corruption, nepotism and cronyism linked to the awarding of contracts to outside companies at inflated prices.

In one letter, Vigano tells the pope of a smear campaign against him (Vigano) by other Vatican officials who wanted him transferred because they were upset that he had taken drastic steps to save the Vatican money by cleaning up its procedures.

“Holy Father, my transfer right now would provoke much disorientation and discouragement in those who have believed it was possible to clean up so many situations of corruption and abuse of power that have been rooted in the management of so many departments,” Vigano wrote to the pope on March 27, 2011.

In another letter to the pope on April 4, 2011, Vigano says he discovered the management of some Vatican City investments was entrusted to two funds managed by a committee of Italian bankers “who looked after their own interests more than ours.”

5 Founding Fathers Whose Skepticism About Christianity Would Make Them Unelectable Today

January 12, 2012

Alter Net

By

“Isn’t is odd that every presidential contender is a Christian? Wouldn’t you rather elect someone who questions what they’ve been told instead of believing it in blindly?  An atheist or agnostic president would be an interesting change.” –KTRN

To hear the Religious Right tell it, men like George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were 18th-century versions of Jerry Falwell in powdered wigs and stockings. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Unlike many of today’s candidates, the founders didn’t find it necessary to constantly wear religion on their sleeves. They considered faith a private affair. Contrast them to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (who says he wouldn’t vote for an atheist for president because non-believers lack the proper moral grounding to guide the American ship of state), Texas Gov. Rick Perry (who hosted a prayer rally and issued an infamous ad accusing President Barack Obama of waging a “war on religion”) and former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum (whose uber-Catholicism leads him to oppose not just abortion but birth control).

There was a time when Americans voted for candidates who were skeptical of core concepts of Christianity like the Trinity, the divinity of Jesus and the virgin birth. The question is, could any of them get elected today? The sad answer is probably not.

Here are five founding fathers whose views on religion would most likely doom them to defeat today:

1. George Washington. The father of our country was nominally an Anglican but seemed more at home with Deism. The language of the Deists sounds odd to today’s ears because it’s a theological system of thought that has fallen out of favor. Desists believed in God but didn’t necessarily see him as active in human affairs. The god of the Deists was a god of first cause. He set things in motion and then stepped back.

Washington often employed Deistic terms. His god was a “supreme architect” of the universe. Washington saw religion as necessary for good moral behavior but didn’t necessarily accept all Christian dogma. He seemed to have a special gripe against communion and would usually leave services before it was offered.

Washington was widely tolerant of other beliefs. He is the author of one of the great classics of religious liberty – the letter to Touro Synagogue (1790). In this letter, Washington assured America’s Jews that they would enjoy complete religious liberty in America; not mere toleration in an officially “Christian” nation. He outlines a vision of a multi-faith society where all are free.

Mystery of Dead Sea Scroll Authors Possibly Solved

November 22, 2011

Live Science

By Owen Jarus

“There is still a lot we DON’T know.  Scientists are constantly discovering new evidence for just about everything.  So the next time you say that you absolutely know something is fact – pull back and say, ‘I think this is fact, but I could be proven wrong.’” –KTRN

The Dead Sea Scrolls may have been written, at least in part, by a sectarian group called the Essenes, according to nearly 200 textiles discovered in caves at Qumran, in the West Bank, where the religious texts had been stored.

Scholars are divided about who authored the Dead Sea Scrolls and how the texts got to Qumran, and so the new finding could help clear up this long-standing mystery.

The research reveals that all the textiles were made of linen, rather than wool, which was the preferred textile used in ancient Israel. Also they lack decoration, some actually being bleached white, even though fabrics from the period often have vivid colours. Altogether, researchers say these finds suggest that the Essenes, an ancient Jewish sect, “penned” some of the scrolls.

Not everyone agrees with this interpretation. An archaeologist who has excavated at Qumran told LiveScience that the linen could have come from people fleeing the Roman army after the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, and that they are in fact responsible for putting the scrolls into caves.

Iconic scrolls

The Dead Sea Scrolls consist of nearly 900 texts, the first batch of which were discovered by a Bedouin shepherd in 1947. They date from before A.D. 70, and some may go back to as early as the third century B.C. The scrolls contain a wide variety of writings including early copies of the Hebrew Bible, along with hymns, calendars and psalms, among other works. [Gallery of Dead Sea Scrolls]

Nearly 200 textiles were found in the same caves, along with a few examples from Qumran, the archaeological site close to the caves where the scrolls were hidden.

Orit Shamir, curator of organic materials at the Israel Antiquities Authority, and Naama Sukenik, a graduate student at Bar-Ilan University, compared the white-linen textiles found in the11 caves to examples found elsewhere in ancient Israel, publishing their results in the most recent issue of the journal Dead Sea Discoveries.

A breakthrough in studying these remains was made in 2007 when a team of archaeologists was able to ascertain that colorful wool textiles found at a site to the south of Qumran, known as the Christmas Cave, were not related to the inhabitants of the site. This meant that Shamir and Sukenik were able to focus on the 200 textiles found in the Dead Sea Scroll caves and at Qumran itself, knowing that these are the only surviving textiles related to the scrolls.

They discovered that every single one of these textiles was made of linen, even though wool was the most popular fabric at the time in Israel. They also found that most of the textiles would have originally been used as clothing, later being cut apart and re-used for other purposes such as bandages and for packing the scrolls into jars. [Photos of Dead Sea textiles]

Some of the textiles were bleached white and most of them lacked decoration, even though decoration is commonly seen in textiles from other sites in ancient Israel.

According to the researchers the finds suggest that the residents of Qumran dressed simply.

“They wanted to be different than the Roman world,” Shamir told LiveScience in a telephone interview. “They were very humble, they didn’t want to wear colorful textiles, they wanted to use very simple textiles.”

The owners of the clothing likely were not poor, as only one of the textiles had a patch on it.”This is very, very, important,” Shamir said. “Patching is connected with [the] economic situation of the site.”

Shamir pointed out that textiles found at sites where people were under stress, such as at the Cave of Letters, which was used in a revolt against the Romans, were often patched. On the other hand “if the site is in a very good economic situation, if it is a very rich site, the textiles will not be patched,” she said. With Qumran, “I think [economically] they were in the middle, but I’m sure they were not poor.”

Robert Cargill, a professor at the University of Iowa, has written extensively about Qumran and has developed a virtual model of it. He said that archaeological evidence from the site, including coins and glassware, also suggests the inhabitants were not poor.

“Far from being poor monastics, I think there was wealth at Qumran, at least some form of wealth,” Cargill said, arguing that trade was important at the site. “I think they made their own pottery and sold some of it, I think they bred animals and sold them, I think they made honey and sold it.”

First Large Global Conflict Where People Are Aligned by Consciousness and Not Nation State or Religion

November 4, 2011

AlterNet.Org

by Naomi Wolf

America’s politicians, it seems, have had their fill of democracy. Across the country, police, acting under orders from local officials, are breaking up protest encampments set up by supporters of the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement – sometimes with shocking and utterly gratuitous violence.

In the worst incident so far, hundreds of police, dressed in riot gear, surrounded Occupy Oakland’s encampment and fired rubber bullets (which can be fatal), flash grenades and tear-gas canisters – with some officers taking aim directly at demonstrators. The Occupy Oakland Twitter feed read like a report from Cairo’s Tahrir Square: “they are surrounding us”; “hundreds and hundreds of police”; “there are armoured vehicles and Hummers”. There were 170 arrests.

My own recent arrest, while obeying the terms of a permit and standing peacefully on a street in lower Manhattan, brought the reality of this crackdown close to home. America is waking up to what was built while it slept: Private companies have hired away its police (JPMorgan Chase gave $4.6m to the New York City Police Foundation); the federal Department of Homeland Security has given small municipal police forces military-grade weapons systems; citizens’ rights to freedom of speech and assembly have been stealthily undermined by opaque permit requirements.

Suddenly, the United States looks like the rest of the furious, protesting, not-completely-free world. Indeed, most commentators have not fully grasped that a world war is occurring. But it is unlike any previous war in human history: for the first time, people around the world are not identifying and organising themselves along national or religious lines, but rather in terms of a global consciousness and demands for a peaceful life, a sustainable future, economic justice and basic democracy. Their enemy is a global “corporatocracy” that has purchased governments and legislatures, created its own armed enforcers, engaged in systemic economic fraud, and plundered treasuries and ecosystems.

Around the world, peaceful protesters are being demonised for being disruptive. But democracy is disruptive. Martin Luther King, Jr argued that peaceful disruption of “business as usual” is healthy, because it exposes buried injustice, which can then be addressed. Protesters ideally should dedicate themselves to disciplined, nonviolent disruption in this spirit – especially disruption of traffic. This serves to keep provocateurs at bay, while highlighting the unjust militarisation of the police response.

Republican Presidential Candidates Divert Focus From Economy

October 11, 2011

The Huffington Post

In an election that’s supposed to hinge on jobs and the economy, the Republican presidential contest in recent months has been defined by almost everything else.

Immigration and children’s vaccines. Race and religion. Homosexuality and health care. The issues range far from the economic woes that concern most voters, but they have captivated Republicans in New Hampshire and other early voting states, providing the candidates with ways to distinguish themselves from their rivals. The biggest applause lines on the campaign trail usually have little to do with a candidate’s economic positions.

The dynamic was on display Monday, even as the contenders prepared for a Tuesday night debate focused solely on the economy.

“Even the richest man can’t buy back his past,” intoned a web video that Texas Gov. Rick Perry rolled out to assail chief rival Mitt Romney’s personal wealth and the Massachusetts health care overhaul that Romney signed into law. “America’s most damaging prescription: RomneyCare,” the video said.

Romney mentioned it during a town hall-style meeting here and suggested that his opponents would use any issue they could to tear him down.

A few minutes earlier, Romney had jabbed Perry on immigration.

Romney said that if you’re an undocumented immigrant “in Texas and you’ve lived there for three years, you can go to college there and get a $100,000 break on your tuition.”

“These magnets have got to stop,” Romney said. A packed VFW hall cheered the knock at Perry’s support for in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants.

In an interview with Parade, Anita Perry, the Texas governor’s wife, said of attacks that have been directed at her husband, “It’s already ugly.”

Less than three months before the first voting of the GOP nomination fight, the candidates are raising a host of issues that don’t speak directly to addressing the nation’s 9.1 percent unemployment rate or the frail economy. They do talk about jobs and the economy to varying degrees. But few – if any – have talked in specifics, preferring to stick to general Republican orthodoxy of lower taxes, less spending and rolled-back regulations as a way to fix what ails the country. They differ little on prescriptions.

The man they hope to oust from the White House, President Barack Obama, has focused much more on the economy. On Tuesday, he will be talking about jobs in Pittsburgh, and on Friday he will travel to a suburban Detroit auto plant – with South Korean President Lee Myung-bak, who’s in the U.S. for a visit expected to focus on trade.

Only a few of the Republicans – Romney and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman among them – have rolled out plans aimed at stimulating growth in a country that some fear is teetering on the edge of a double-dip recession. Perry, who joined the race in mid-August, plans to announce his economic plan this fall. Businessman Herman Cain has spelled out a tax reform plan.

The campaigns argue that the nation’s economic woes are directly linked to such issues as immigration and health care. And they note that voters will ask the questions they want – even if they stray from what they tell pollsters are their top issues.

Indeed, Romney opened his Monday event by talking about the economy, a centerpiece of his campaign for much of the summer, but an hour later he had answered far more questions about health care, undocumented immigration and labor unions.

The lack of economic focus caught the attention of at least one participant, 53-year-old Leen Intveld, from nearby Brookline.

“I was surprised,” said Intveld, an independent voter attending his first town hall meeting who plans to vote for Romney in the Republican primary. “I’m worried about the economy. That’s the top issue for me.”

For most others, too, it seems.

A recent Associated Press-GfK poll found 97 percent of Republicans saying the economy is extremely or very important, similar to the share of Democrats calling it that important. But Republicans give more attention to other issues – immigration, abortion and a candidate’s religion – than Democrats and independents do, which could explain why the GOP race sometimes seems focused on issues other than the economy.

The absence of debate over the economy is perhaps most apparent in the increasingly contentious relationship between the GOP front-runners. Romney has slammed Perry on his position on Social Security and undocumented immigration. Perry has castigated Romney over health care and changed positions on social issues.

Race and religion also have emerged.

Perry was forced to defend himself after a report that a hunting camp once leased by the family had a racially offensive name. Perry has agreed the name was offensive, and he said that after he saw it painted on a rock outside of the camp in the early 1980s the word was painted over.

Over the weekend, Baptist minister Robert Jeffress – who has endorsed Perry – created a stir when he introduced the governor at a conservative gathering in Washington and later told reporters that Romney’s faith – Mormonism – is a “cult.”

“It’s nonsense” and a “political distraction,” Huntsman, also a Mormon, said in Tilton, N.H., when he was asked to weigh in. “During a time when we’re at war abroad – we’ve never had the number of problems and challenges we’ve had – for the dialogue to be taken in that direction, it’s just nonsensical.”

On other matters, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann faced sharp criticism over the summer when reports suggested her husband’s clinic helped counsel clients to “cure” homosexuality. And as her campaign has progressed, she has frequently highlighted her socially conservative positions.

“We all understand that the No. 1 issue that people will be voting on in this election will be the economy and jobs,” Bachmann said last week in Iowa. “But in the midst of this, we can’t forget the issue of the protection of the most innocent and vulnerable among us – and that’s the unborn.”

Her audiences have not pushed her focus on the economy.

While she took part in New England College’s “Econ-101 Town Hall” series in Henniker, N.H, on Monday only three of the 10 questions she was asked touched on the economy or financial issues. Instead, topics ranged from Social Security and Medicare to getting youth involved in politics and her favorite novel. (Anything by F. Scott Fitzgerald, she said.)

“As much as this election is about jobs and the economy – and it is – I’d say that I’m probably far more concerned about the threats that are facing the United States from around the world. I’m probably more concerned about that than I am about the economic threat we’re facing right now,” she said.

The questions Tuesday night in the debate at Dartmouth College are expected to focus heavily on the economy. The candidates will have little choice but to do the same.

Will Spying Help Combat Terrorism In New York?

September 13, 2011

Infowars

By: Becky Akers

It’s an incredibly shocking story, the sort that would once have horrified every American regardless of his politics, one that completely eviscerates the Constitution and renders everything this country supposedly represents moot. And yet few have paid any attention while even fewer are outraged. In fact, most who’ve heard about it cheer Our Rulers as heroes.

“With CIA help, NYPD moves covertly in Muslim areas,” reads the headline on the Associated Press’ story from a fortnight ago. Turns out that the two agencies have collaborated for the last nine years to spy on New Yorkers.

That’s right: the CIA with its medical experiments on unwitting subjects, its torture, its vicious skullduggery in other people’s countries, its assassinations, and its utter contempt for all law, foreign, domestic or heavenly, has been teaching its tricks to the NYPD – not that the latter needed any coaching when it comes to shredding freedom. So if you’re tempted to pitch rather than pay that parking ticket, you’d better think twice unless you want a dunk in the Hudson. Waterboarding: it isn’t just for terrists anymore.

The “partnership” between these bureaucracies is extensive and chilling. The CIA has trained at least one cop at “the Farm, the agency’s spy school in Virginia“; other personnel float back and forth. One “respected veteran who had served as a CIA official inside the United Nations … interviewed police officers for newly defined intelligence jobs [with the NYPD]. He guided and mentored officers, schooling them in the art of gathering information. He also directed their efforts…”

Cops concentrate most of those “efforts” in Muslim neighborhoods – for now. But how long until the CIA-NYPD Borg adds other religions and ethnicities in this city of immigrants to its list? How long before connoisseurs of drugs the State disapproves, pedophiles (except, of course, those the Transportation Security Administration harbors at the airports) and political dissidents become “security threats” worthy of the Borg’s “efforts” – if they haven’t already?

Whether they are or not, or when they do, we’re unlikely to know: “Neither the city council, which finances the department, nor the federal government, which has given NYPD more than $1.6 billion since 9/11, is told exactly what’s going on. … ‘One of the hallmarks of the [NYPD’s] intelligence division over the last 10 years is that, not only has it gotten extremely aggressive and sophisticated, but it’s operating completely on its own,’ said [Christopher] Dunn, the [New York Civil Liberties Union] lawyer. ‘There are no checks. There is no oversight.’” Dunn also denounced the Borg as “a rogue domestic surveillance operation.”

You aren’t safe from the Borg just because you don’t live in the five boroughs. “Officials” insist that “any potential threat to New York City is the NYPD’s business, regardless of where it occurs,” and they act on that “policy”: “The NYPD has gotten some of its officers deputized as federal marshals, allowing them to work out of state. … [The] undercover squad … operates in places such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, officials said.” And of course, it’s possible the CIA colludes with other departments in other cities, too.

In New York, the Borg’s lone, unsupervised cowboys patronize Islamic bookstores and internet cafes while eying and chatting up the clientele; ditto for worship at mosques; and, as if that weren’t enough unconstitutional wickedness, they cultivate snitches, too. I wonder how long New Yorkers will remain apathetic once the Borg begins sidling up to congregants in churches and synagogues. Tragically, Americans no longer understand this probability. Instead, they applaud the lie that Our Rulers spy only on Moslems solely to protect us.

Fortunately, the State’s legendary incompetence often thwarts its lust for control; the Borg offers yet another proof of that. “It is no secret to the Muslim immigrants of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, that spies live among them,” the New York Times reported in 2006, when the Borg was four years old. “Almost anyone can rattle off what they regard as the telltale signs of police informers: They like to talk politics. They have plenty of free time. They live in the neighborhood, but have no local relatives. ‘They think we don’t know, but we know who they are,’ said Linda Sarsour, 26, a community activist.”

The Times ran this story a few days after one of the spies sent 24-year-old Shahawar Matin Siraj, a.k.a., the “Subway Bomber,” to prison for 30 years. Indeed, without the informant, Siraj probably would never have suffered arrest, much less conviction: “he was not linked to a terror group like al Qaeda nor did he have any explosives. The case hung on the undercover work of [Osama] Eldawoody, a naturalized Egyptian who spent nearly two years posing as a like-minded radical Islamist.”

He might as well have been named Elder Goody: he was more than twice as old as Siraj, and he presented himself to the younger man as a Moslem mentor. He flattered Siraj, whom an uncle described as “not too bright…. He’s not dangerous, he just talks,” and showered him with attention, then suggested blowing up the subway station at Herald Square, one of the system’s major terminals; after all, US soldiers were raping Moslem girls back home: didn’t Siraj want to avenge their innocence?

After months of such cajoling, Eldawoody’s prey finally succumbed. His wire caught Siraj’s agreement on tape.

And so a young man with no criminal record, no association to terrorists other than Eldawoody (who “worked” for some of the world’s most ruthless, the NYPD), and no weapons or other means of fulfilling his mentor’s plot languishes in America’s gulag. Not surprisingly, “some Muslim leaders remain convinced that [Siraj] was entrapped.”

Eldawoody and his entrapment aren’t an aberration. They are as common as dirt when it comes to American “terrorists” – so common we might ask whether there would even be any American terrorists were it not for the government’s ginning them up.

Indeed, the same week the AP exposed the NYPD-CIA Borg, the left’s flagship publication, Mother Jones, released research it had compiled over the last year with the equally leftist Investigative Reporting Program at the University of California-Berkeley. The duo “examined prosecutions of 508 defendants in terrorism-related cases, as defined by the Department of Justice.” Their conclusion? “The FBI has built a massive network of spies to prevent another domestic attack. But are they busting terrorist plots – or leading them?”

It seems that virtually all homegrown terrorists’ schemes originate not with Moslems who hate our freedom but with an FBI that does. “Remember the Washington Metro bombing plot?” MoJo asks. “The New York subway plot? The guys who planned to blow up the Sears Tower? The teenager seeking to bomb a Portland Christmas tree lighting? Each of those plots, and dozens more across the nation, was led by an FBI asset.”

You may be reluctant to accept the word of two notoriously leftie outfits. Fine. Here’s the FBI and the U.S. Department of Injustice crowing about their subornation of a half-witted and harmless dupe: “At trial, the government proved that Siraj [and one of his equally pitiable friends] plotted to plant explosive devices at the Herald Square subway station… The evidence included hours of secretly recorded conversations between Siraj and Osama Eldawoody, … a paid informant for the New York City Police Department’s Intelligence Division … [The U.S. Attorney on the case] praised the outstanding work of the New York City Police Department, and thanked the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the New York Joint Terrorist Task Force for their assistance.”

Or, as Siraj’s lawyer put it, ” … the New York City Police Department creat[ed] a crime so they can solve the crime and claim a victory in the war on terror.”

And so we have the Borg spying on American citizens to catch the FBI’s terrists. Have these bozos never heard of inter-agency memos? Why doesn’t the FBI save the Constitution and our money with a simple email to the Borg: “Comrades, we are concocting a terrorist who will target the 9/11 Commemoration at Ground Zero, the Superbowl, Amtrak, what-have-you. Contact us for further details as to exact time and place, the tapes of our entrapping him over the last 22 months, and other evidence you will need at trial.”

Or perhaps the Feds with their Terrorist Factory are simply fulfilling Obummer’s pledge to create jobs.
