this just seems to indicate that the FBI was aware of a plot, by SOMEONE, to attack Occupy protestors. nowhere in the documents do I see information that the FBI itself made this plan and it would make a lot of sense if the FBI was tracking potential violence against protestors...
- gasull 13y agoFTA: The use of the phrase ‘if deemed necessary,’ sounds like it was some kind of official organization that was doing the planning.” In other words, the “identified [DELETED” mentioned in the Houston FBI document may have been some other agency with jurisdiction in the area, which was calculatedly making plans to kill Occupy activists.
- furyofantares 13y agoThat reads like pure speculation

- smsm42 13y agoThere's a difference between logically following an evidence and reasoning like "DELETED might mean FBI or NSA or Black Helicopters Squad - we are doomed! PANIC!!!" DELETED might mean anything, so there's absolutely no reason to give any weight to that specific speculated meaning against a meaning of "two patients of local mental asylum, when their meds were accidentally switched".
- jcromartie 13y agoWhen the FBI is aware of planned terrorism against average Americans, it goes in with guns blazing and parades the bad guys out on TV to show how they foiled the terrorist plot (even if it's the FBI's own plot). In this case they identified someone who was apparently making real plans, but did nothing.
