      It’s totally entrapment.

      The victims usually don’t have the capacity to mount a sufficient legal defense.

      In you remember Kellyanne Conway’s Bowling Green Massacre the incident that was based on was similar. FBI gaslighted three refugee inmigrants in order to get them to aid and abet a fictional terror plot so they could be charged with terrorism, so that FBI could assert it was stopping terrorism.

      FBI creates a dozen such cases every year, specifically targetting vulnerable people with mental health problems or who are clinically retarded. They end up with really long prison sentences.

      That’s SOP for a large percentage of FBI terrorism investigations that DON’T begin after an attack.

      Whenever you read “FBI foiled plot”, dig into it and you’ll probably find similar behavior, or a CI who intentionally molded the terrorist for them.

          Well, shit.That’s on me for not googling the story.

          Luckily for me, the AFP is basically a junior FBI in regards to their aspirational goals of running a police state on behalf of the Aussie elite and Liberal party donor class.

          NSW anti-terror police aren’t far behind either, even if their brand of shitfuckery is a bit petty relative to the AFP, or FBI.
