      That’s SOP for a large percentage of FBI terrorism investigations that DON’T begin after an attack.

      Whenever you read “FBI foiled plot”, dig into it and you’ll probably find similar behavior, or a CI who intentionally molded the terrorist for them.

          Well, shit.That’s on me for not googling the story.

          Luckily for me, the AFP is basically a junior FBI in regards to their aspirational goals of running a police state on behalf of the Aussie elite and Liberal party donor class.

          NSW anti-terror police aren’t far behind either, even if their brand of shitfuckery is a bit petty relative to the AFP, or FBI.
