5. Why do I feel they're setting us up for one of two possibilities?
First possibility is are they setting us up so they can take our civil rights away from us by terrorizing us with imaginary threats? Or the second possibility is are they setting us up so when the next terrorist attack comes they can say they warned us?

These statements are just too convenient. Are they trying to protect themselves from the inevitable blowup of recriminations after we're attacked again, or are they just softening us up with fear so they can use a kill switch of the intertubes?

Man! I've gotten so jaded!
