Description:Available: projectsalam.org/inventing-terrorists...The study focuses on post-9/11 claims by the U.S. government that it keeps the country safe from terrorism byarresting hundreds of so-called “terrorists” who were about to strike the U.S. until the FBI foiled their plots. In fact, this study shows that there have been remarkably few actual terrorism threats to this country in the lastdecade. The vast majority of arrests in the war on terror have consisted of•the FBI foiling its own entrapment plots; or•the government arresting people on material support for terrorism charges that effectively criminalize innocent conduct, such as charitable giving and management, free speech, free association, peace-making, and social hospitality; or•inflation of minor or technical incidents into terrorism events, such as immigration application inaccuracies, old weapons charges, or inaccurate statements to governmental officials The study shows that the war on terror has been largely a charade designed to make the American public believe that a terrorist army is loose in the U.S., when the truth is that most of the people convicted of terrorism- related crimes posed no danger to the U.S. and were entrapped by a preventive strategy known as preemptive prosecution.The theme of the study links preemptive prosecution to themetaphor of “lawfare,” the use of the law as a weapon of war, in this case the war on terror.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
