Records show FBI used ultra-right radio host for years (Hal Turner FBI Rat!!!)

For more than five years, Hal Turner of North Bergen lived a double life.

The public knew him as an ultra-right-wing radio talk show host and Internet blogger with an audience of neo-Nazis and white supremacists attracted to his scorched-earth racism and bare-knuckles bashing of public figures. But to the FBI, and its expanding domestic counter-terror intelligence operations in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, Turner was "Valhalla" — his code name as an informant who spied on his own controversial followers.

Turner's clandestine past was confirmed this past summer when he was jailed on charges that he made threats on his blog against three federal judges in Chicago. In court after his arrest, federal prosecutors acknowledged Turner's FBI ties but downplayed his importance and even described him as "unproductive."

From what I read, it seems clear that this man was coached to pretend to be a very conservative individual, with the purpose of arresting right-wing listeners.

“with an audience of neo-Nazis and white supremacists attracted to his scorched-earth racism and bare-knuckles bashing of public figures.”


I believe those people belong at MoveOn.org and any remaining Left Wing radio stations.

He was after skinheads ~ not Conservatives.

Skinheads are much more like Leftwingtards, particularly the mad bomber types, that Democrats love to do the warm and cuddlies with.

Still, whatever he was doing I knew a guy who appeared to have been doing a similar thing for the FBI regarding a credit company ~ he had to be brought in and given a regular government job in a different agency.

Then, one day the agency hired a bunch of guys he'd been infiltrating at the credit company. They made his life misrable.

We had a couple of other former FBI undercover types at Headquarters. For the most part they told the same story about how the FBI handles deep undercover people ~ and this guy's tale sounds like pretty much the same old same old.

Has the ring of truth!

It's just SOP, right wing, left wing, Muslim, doesn't matter to them. They want to make arrests, even if they have to incite the illegal acts themselves.

Remember it was the FBI's inside man who prepared the World Trade Center bombs for the first attack.

If anyone in a group is advocating killing cops or just making random attacks, it's probably the FBI mole.

BATFE will do that too. It's why they entrapped Randy Weaver, they wanted him to infilitrate "white power" groups in the area of his Ruby Ridge home.

that's what I think the Oath Keepers is all about. It's just a way of getting names of military and police personnel that can't be "trusted" by the government to do the dirty work they may need.

Agent Provocateurs .... Even people on this site that make threats may just want the isp addresses of those in agreement in order to better observe those that might be a "threat" to the government.

"As Turner took to his radio show and blog to say that those who opposed his extremist views deserve to die, he received thousands of dollars from the FBI to report on such groups as the Aryan Nations and the white supremacist National Alliance, and even a member of the Blue Eyed Devils skinhead punk band. Later, he was sent undercover to Brazil where he reported a plot to send non-military supplies to anti-American Iraqi resistance fighters."

OK..... then this dis-qualifies him as "an ultra-right-wing talk show host". "Right-Wing" means Federalism, Individual Liberty, Limited Government, Capitalism, Strong National Defense, Lower Taxes, Freedom, etc.

Playing to those that judge according to race and attacking the US Military is liberal territory.

Sort of reminds me of the sixties, when we could always spot the FBI informer because he was the one loudly advocating the violent overthrow of the government. That, and their ‘undercover agents’ were the only people in the crowd wearing jeans with creases.

Split personality ~ the Fibbies never wore white socks. The Postal Inspector infiltrating right next to them never wore colored socks.

Dead giveaways.

You just don't know how many undercover guys were taking advantage of the SDS girls.
