All what they caught was some third-league dealer, yet the news hinted that he had terrorist connections.

The bourgeois press is all too willing to take the bait.  This is called &quot;gray propaganda&quot; and is described quite well by Philip Agee in his very interesting book, &quot;Inside the Company: CIA Diary&quot;.

The ABC story quotes unnamed &quot;law enforcement officials&quot; as saying, in the network's words, that &quot;much of the alleged missile plot was a government setup from start to finish.&quot;\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/sections\/wnt\/World\/missile030813_sting.html\r\n\r\nWell, yeah, it was a sting operation. ABC's dumb journalism seems to be intended to &quot;correct&quot; other news outlets' dumb journalism in initially reporting the story. As blogger Josh Marshall points out, an MSNBC report (since edited) actually contained this sentence: &quot;It was not immediately clear whether the plot was connected to al-Qaida or some other terrorist network.&quot; Since the purported al Qaeda operative in the &quot;plot&quot; was actually an FBI agent, it should have been immediately clear to anyone with a brain in his head.\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/talkingpointsmemo.com\/aug0302.html#0813031250am\r\n","author":"Ffutal","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-16 11:46:28","modified":"2003-08-16 11:46:28","fileurl":""},{"id":77671,"heading":"ha ha ha ha","article":"Honey, you left out the bottom portion of the article (convienently).\r\nthat stated....\r\n\r\n-------But in Washington, senior Justice Department officials were \u201cnot happy,\u201d said one law-enforcement official. \u201cWe didn\u2019t want this to get out before we could determine whether this guy would cooperate or not.\u201d For all the hoopla over the case, the official confirmed, it was essentially a government-arranged \u201csting\u201d that never involved any contact with actual terrorists. \t\r\n\r\nI know you love to read &quot;NEWSPEAK&quot; while going potty, but you need to be responsible for the information you post.\r\nNow take your Viagra and come to bed...","author":"mrs wilson","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-19 04:56:39","modified":"2013-11-11 00:25:00","fileurl":""},{"id":77787,"heading":"ha ha ha","article":"DO you ever respond to an argument honey?\r\nAll yo do is throw insults when your pea sized brain cant think of anything to say.\r\nYou really make your self look stupid.\r\nnOw come over here so i can put your DEPENDS on you","author":"mrs wilson","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-19 19:16:49","modified":"2003-08-19 19:16:49","fileurl":""},{"id":77802,"heading":"OneEyedMan","article":"Puddin'Head: &quot;I left out inconvenient facts?&quot;\r\n\r\nNo....just factual ones....","author":"KPC","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-19 20:26:56","modified":"2003-08-19 20:26:56","fileurl":""},{"id":77810,"heading":"OneEyedMan","article":"Gee, Puddin'Head, looks like da missus has got your panties in a bunch....","author":"KPC","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-19 21:03:21","modified":"2003-08-19 21:03:21","fileurl":""},{"id":77818,"heading":"OneEyedMan","article":"oh, fuck off ya pantywaiste...as if &quot;Mr. Wilson&quot; has more integrity as a handle than &quot;Mrs. Wilson&quot;...\r\n\r\n...fuckin' eunuch....","author":"KPC","parent_id":77262,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-08-19 21:26:13","modified":"2003-08-19 21:26:13","fileurl":""},{"id":77824,"heading":"OneEyedMan","article":"...sorry to offend your delicate sensibilities...\r\n\r\n...&quot;feces&quot;...HAHAHAHAHAHA!
