Is The FBI Entrapping Idiots? (& No, Timothy McVeigh Was No Idiot)
By Ilana Mercer
Wednesday, June 28, 2006

CNN reports that seven Miami-based men “concocted a plot to ‘kill all the devils we can,’ starting by blowing up Chicago’s Sears Tower, according to charges in a federal indictment revealed Friday.”

It transpires that this information was elicited by an “FBI operative posing as a member of the terrorist network.”

I watched the sister of one of the suspects enter “The Situation Room” with Wolf Blitzer. The woman, bless her, was illiterate and probably borderline retarded. Let me tell you something: If American schools are producing the likes of this poor woman, homegrown retardation is more urgent a problem than homegrown terrorism.

Entrapment is equally worrisome. If the woman’s brother, also one of the accused, is as simple as she, then a wily and intelligent FBI agent could have a field day leading him on. The FBI is supposed to uncover existing plots, not help develop them by leading on a bunch of very simple, if unsavory, characters.

Rich Lowry has compared the hapless Miami bunch to Timothy McVeigh, who, according to Lowry, was also not very bright. This is a manifestly unperceptive observation. McVeigh was certainly intelligent. Read the interview he gave TIME and tell me it doesn’t reflect considerable intelligence. Read the interview the sister of the terror suspect gave Blitzer and tell me it doesn’t reflect extremely poor cognitive skills.

Compare this:

Asked by TIME magazine who were his favorite authors of political philosophy, McVeigh said:

“Patrick Henry, John Locke, of course many of the Founding Fathers: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Samuel Adams. I thought those men were, at the time they were extremely well-educated. They could talk us in circles these days, we wouldn’t know what they were talking about. I really respected their observations and analyses of history past.”

To this:

Asked by Blitzer about her terror-suspect brother, Marlene Phanor said:

“Actually, he’s, um, he was, he was working and he got into this group and they started going to church, trying to help the community. But the guy, the leader, I never know where he came from, who he was. Actually, my brother and them don’t even know where he come from. But he came positive for them. He came to them where he can help them and help the community and humble their minds and humble their souls and everything.”

Morality aside, a couple of IQ standard-deviation points separate these two. To compare McVeigh’s intelligence to the likes of Phanor is a little strained, to say the least.

Provided the sister doesn’t represent a genetic anomaly (and her accused brother and his associates are bright), I’ll repeat my contention: it would have been easy for the FBI to ensnare this group.

Blood On Their Hands

On June 25, 2003, I wrote:

“When the administration plants or uncovers a couple of dozen drums of inactive, old goop, minus the necessary dispersing systems, ‘Boobus Americanus’ will easily accept these as the real ruse for war.”

That day arrived. Last week, the administration issued a low-key announcement: it had unearthed in Iraq pre-Gulf War munitions containing degraded sarin.

“Hallelujah,” proclaimed some of the Boobi. Salvation at last: the reason for an unjust war had been found. The administration didn’t go along with them.

War mongers and apologists must either expiate, or be doomed to wonder about, forever searching for a symbolic salve for rotting souls, and alternately muttering, “Out, damned spot! out, I say!”

  • Well the FBI is not capable to catch the real bad guys. McVeigh was caught afterwards, right?

    This people in Miami will come out of prison soon, it was only a propaganda prank on behave of a criminal out of control American administration.

    It is like in the military, if you don’t have "success" then you make up your own.

  • After the stolen 2000 elections and 9/11, america became a turkey farm and the american people like the big dumb birds standing around waiting for the guys with the clubs to come and pay t-ball with their heads. There are signs that this is changing(ever so frustratingly slowly) and an awakening is taking place, but has it come too late to make a difference?
    The bush regime/GOP/FBI/NSA/NWO elites have and are doing everything they can to ensure that the american people turn out being as stupid as door stops because they want a citizenry that cannot see the truth and can be led off to war and into their own leg chains as easily as possible.
    The Sears Tower psychological operation was only the latest in a series to gauge whether the american public is still as gullible and easily manipulated as it was after 9/11.
    Although there is evidence that the american people have become more desensitized to the faked terror alerts and staged pre-terror raids such as this one, there is still the danger that the american people are blunder ing blindly into the trap that has been set for them.
    The FBI purposely goes looking for minorities who are either new to this country and therefore still naive and vulnerable to the ways of this society, or it intentionally seeks out those who are intellectually challenged or mentally unstable knowing that they can be easily lured in and set up as patsies.
    The main thing to remember is that the bush regime /GOP/FBI/NSA/NWO want to demonize all non-whites and non-wealthy/non christian/non-wealthy-GOP whites by portraying them as potential terrorist threats to america. First it was arabs/muslims of foreign or domestic origin. But because the israelis and the bush regime have been behaving like insane asylum inmates on crack cocaine going berserk against the middle east and are losing support for the “war on arabs/muslims”, they have switched their targeting scopes to another race-the blacks in the hopes that focusing on another dark skinned race will rekindle the fear of terror and the desire for lynch mob justice.
    And when this scheme fails, they will switch to asians or american indians. And as a last resort, they will go after the whites that are considered “enemies of the state”. Everyone that is not one of them are considered “terrorists”.
    It is imperative that the american people learn and remember that when it comes to war of any kind waged by governments(especially the u.s./israeli governments) that not everything is as it first appears to be. What governments offer that appear to be beneficial and convenient often have hidden truths buried beneath their surfaces that they don’t want their citizens to know about.
    Most present day large centralized governments do not exist to serve their peoples but exist to deceive them and trick them into becoming willing slaves.
    False terror operations and wars are merely tools used by them and their overlords to convince gullible and credulous populations that they face external threats and that they must submit to their leaders for protection and survival. But what they get instead are restrictions of freedoms and liberties and harsh treatment at the hands of authorities and extreme punishments if they are accused of violating the multitudes of vague and confusing laws created to entrap and penalize them.
    The 7 men who were allegedly plotting to blow up the Sears Tower were not actual terrorists and were not guilty of terrorism, but they were probably guilty of being dumb enough to be lured into a trap set for them by the government.
    In the era of bush dictatorship, no extreme possibility can be dismissed.
    Terrorism and terrorists are most likely the contrivances of governments determined to gain the obedience and indentured servitude of their populations through staged incidents of terror.
    People pursue positions of great importance in governments for the most part because they want immense power and control of other people and want to feel like gods with the power of life or death.
    In the animal kingdom the animals are born with the instincts to avoid danger to survive.
    In the human kingdom, that instinct is missing or has been dulled severely in the western world to the point where people are oblivious to signs of danger all around them.
    Before bush stole the presidency in 2000, he made several statements betraying his dictatorial aspirations that went “if this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just as long as I’m the dictator”.
    Normally , this should have triggered flashing red lights in everyone’s minds and caused them to flee from bush as if he were the plague. It did alarm a few alert and conscious americans, but for the majority it fell on deaf ears and didn’t produce much of a reaction-the american people were oblivious to the implications of those statements, or they falsely assumed that they were “off the cuff” jokes and laughed along.
    The danger of assuming that politicians are joking when it comes to power is the slide into tyranny and we the american people are experiencing that danger first hand right now.
