Called the Joint Terrorism Task Force, the program was created, presumably, to help preserve the American way of life. This flyer was created — by the feds — to disseminate information about who the bad guys might be. However, its wording made it look like a disinformation campaign to paint at least a few groups of Real Americans as domestic terrorists. Among other things, the FBI was asking people:

"If you encounter any of the following, Call the Joint Terrorism Task Force":

"defenders of the US Constitution against federal government and the UN"...

HISTORY OF THE FLYER

According to Terry Chapman of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office — whose name is on the flyer as the MCSO contact — the FBI created the flyer and printed the MCSO and Attorney's Office before the text was approved. He said it was created as a full color brochure to hand out to officers, not for the general public — and that as soon as he saw it, he urged them not to use it, knowing it had some problems.

"The flyer never got off the ground," said Officer Chapman, "but it did manage to make it's way out — and maybe it's right that it did." He genuinely didn't like this piece of junk, and he showed true concern about my issues with the flyer, too. "We were not happy with it. It was formulated, I think, for legitimate purposes, but it fell on stony ground because of the way it was worded — the unfortunate profiles that were put in there outraged a number of people who received it."...

A couple of points. The tentative "release" of the flyer followed by "deniable denial" is similar to the "leak" of the Napolitano "memo."

This flyer was drawn up in southern Arizona during the time that the terrorists who flew the planes into WTC were in Phoenix learning to fly, but not to land.

Janet Napolitano was Arizona Attorney General at the time. Clinton was President. And, apparently, Federal and state anti-terror resources were pointed at politically correct targets. The wrong targets.

I think that the concern is that we may be repeating history. National anti-terrorism resources seem to being re-retasked to look at patriotic Americans when they should remain focused on real, known, admitted terrorist threats. My guess is that DHS just dusted off a 10 year old project now that the Clinton administration is back in charge.

We have been down this path before with disastrous results.

My guess is that DHS just dusted off a 10 year old project now that the Clinton administration is back in charge.

But...but...I read that it was President BUSH that ordered the report. Now they are saying it was BJ K'Toon? Anbody but the Usurper I guess.
