Tuesday, October 10, 2006, at 9pm Eastern, government TV’s Frontline – after all the bogus arrests on terrorism charges across this country over the last few years – will be taking on the question of whether al-Qaeda actually has people here in America at all.
Frontline‘s splash page says they’ll be looking at that poor Hamid Hayat kid out of Lodi, California, who was entrapped by a snitch and convicted of “Un-Americanism.” If they do the story justice at all it will generate outrage in .001 percent of the U.S. population for at least an hour.
It is clear from their ad on the front page of RawStory who the real enemies of freedom are.
If the state does a comparably competent job with Americans turned over to the military under the new Destroy American Liberty Forever by Suspending Habeas Corpus Act (DALFSHCA) as they have done with those lucky enough to get trials, I guess I’ll be seein’ ya’ll at Guantanamo Bay.
Update: Watch the whole thing here.
