Anderson Cooper: Sears Tower "Terrorists" Set Up?
http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=12462

From Anderson Cooper:

"MASTER G.H.G. ATHEA, SUSPECT'S FRIEND: Someone along the line offered to him some funds to do whatever he wanted to do if that's what he wanted to do. As far as some subversive work. And said they would give him whatever he needed.

ANDREWS: So somebody had approached him to give him money to blow up buildings?

ATHEA: To do whatever he wanted to do. But that was far from his mind. So he had no desire to interact with these men to accept anything they had to offer."

ANDREWS: So bottom line here, is your friend a terrorist?

ATHEA: No, he's not. Absolutely not.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

COOPER: Hmm. Sort of raises more questions than it answers. Not quite sure the point of what that guy was saying. We've lost reporter Brian Andrews to ask him. Pat, what do you make of what you just heard?

1. GO for it Anderson...
He has pretty good instincts. The boy was born in the bubble, but he's bright and curious. There's hope for him.

11. It will take real guts for him to grab this one and pursue it
assuming that what is being hinted at here is correct.

A setup, or worse, a trumped up case.

2. Entrapment at least...
treason at worst. Do we know yet if it was a govt worker that gave him the money?

3. 1st FLorida election fiasco; 2nd Voting Rights; now this?
Is this a part of a racist attack on a largely democratic voting block?
Or am I seeing shadows everywhere I look?

10. So our guys are creating terrorists....Funding them

Seems to be a lot of this kind of stuff going on. If you keep offering
people things, eventually someone will accept.

12. some stupid mean kids with no car, no supplies and
no money. WOW, must be time to try and SCARE up those poll numbers for BUSH.
Sure even one person can do great harm, but Bush's war is promoting hate, fear and terror.
They claimed; if we DIDN"T fight them there, we would have to fight them here.
The Bush regime is NOT making us safer, some law enforcement folks I'm sure are doing some good work, but NOT the Bush regime.

14. Ah - finally somebody figured it out exactly.
I've been searching for the simple phrase that captures the absolute depravity of the miami terra bustup. You've nailed it.
