The U.S. Army is Spying on Americans

According to Dan Kennedy of The Guardian (citing a NY Times story), a U.S. Army operative infiltrated and spied on an antiwar activist group in Washington. Here is the original story as broken by Amy Goodman of Democracy Now:


There is no way this is an isolated case. Past experience tells us that operations of this nature are always broader than they first appear. Evidence from this more detailed report from Justin Raimondo would seem to indicate that a more widespread operation is likely.

Is this liberty? Is this the rule of law? Is this the America we think we know?
