FBI Raids Homes of Antiwar and Pro-Palestinian Activists in Chicago and Minneapolis

Antiwar activists are gearing up for protests outside FBI offices in cities across the country today and Tuesday after the FBI raided eight homes and offices of antiwar activists in Chicago and Minneapolis Friday. The FBI’s search warrants indicate agents were looking for connections between local antiwar activists and groups in Colombia and the Middle East. We speak to the targets of two of the raids and former FBI officer Coleen Rowley.

2. Things have not changed one iota for those against the imperial wars executed by
our government.

This crap was rampant back in the Vietnam era, and is still going on???????

I guess the administration is further defining who their enemies are.

4. "NO charges have filed" ???!!!
The targets were raided and searched and have been scheduled for a Grand Jury but NO charges YET were filed, before the raid?
So the raid was to find evidence for the Grand Jury????

Does anyone here remember Frank Church and why his committee was famous????
