Astoundingly wrong: Conversely, this Salon article from June of last year (written by Bruce Shapiro) is so incredibly, tragically wrong…
Then. ABC News correspondent Martha Raddatz reported that:
The threat from [international] terrorists is so high, the potential for massive casualties is so real, that an independent panel [note: the National Commission on Terrorism] is pushing the government to take immediate, drastic action.”
To this, Shapiro reported FBI Director Louis Freeh as saying:
Even the American cells of violent Middle East political movements as Hamas and Hezbollah, Freeh declared, are devoted exclusively to “fundraising and low-level intelligence gathering.”
Shapiro even goes so far as to say that findings by the National Commision on Terrorism are nothing but a “con job”.
If only someone had acted on this…
