They're Not Even Pretending With The Phony "Terror Cell" Cases Anymore
Domestic spying far outpaces terrorism prosecutions
"WASHINGTON -- The number of Americans being secretly wiretapped or having their financial and other records reviewed by the government has continued to increase as officials aggressively use powers approved after the Sept. 11 attacks. But the number of terrorism prosecutions ending up in court -- one measure of the effectiveness of such sleuthing -- has continued to decline, in some cases precipitously.The trends, visible in new government data and a private analysis of Justice Department records, are worrisome to civil liberties groups and some legal scholars. They say it is further evidence that the government has compromised the privacy rights of ordinary citizens without much to show for it."
That's because there was never anything to show for it to begin with. Virtually every trumped up case that the federal government has bellowed about has been laughed out of court, every time some "terror" group is rounded up it turns out the whole thing was set up by the feds themselves. The shame of this rush into fascism is that people believed the fetid "terror" scam in the first place, now exposed time and time again as justification for turning this country into a miserable police state, a shiny and barbaric hell hole I guarantee you'll wish you saw coming after it's too late.
It seems they're not even going to try to prove reasons anymore for their snoop society wet dream. Why bother with failed prosecutions when the majority of dumbed down americans are already bamboozled and are gleefully willing to take it up the ass even further without any show trials?
"These concerns come as the Bush administration has been seeking to expand its ability to gather intelligence without prior court approval."

Anonymous One,that's not bad enough,people don't want you to even question anything the Ameranazis do.We are being lead to slaughter just like the good little Germans in 1939,remember they killed their own before the jews were rounded up,in the T4 camps.
The Smug Ones don't quite understand that no one is going to be exempt when our overlords decide to crush all opposition.
I think you are mistaken as there are now seven hundred and fifty thousand "terrorists" on the no-fly list.
I just flew, ericswan, they missed one.
The ex-cops that lost their jobs for police-brutality love it. They're first in line for the jobs to be filled with FALCON, our nation-wide state and local domestic-spy org (which is also top-secret and answers to no one but the DHS or NSA).
