The CCR has been funded by both Soros and the Tides Foundation. It's head Kunstler was the Blind Sheikh's attorney for a while in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing case.
Michael Ratner is the brother of Ellen Ratner. Ellen went on TV and blurted out that she hoped we would lose the war because it would be good for Democrats. She had also said she thought our EP-3 crew deserved to get rammed by the Chinese pilot some years earlier.
The CCR provided the defense for the Gainsville 8 which plotting riots, etc. Among the more than 20 VVAW members arrested was Scott Camil. Camil was involved in the VVAW assassination plot where the group discussed killing senators and congressmen- this was discussed in the Seift Boat threads about John Kerry back in 2004.
Ah yes, Ellen’s brother. Thank you very much, piasa.
