Celebrating AmeriKa: Shakespearean Sadness in New York

FBI penned this script?

"Three in NYC temple plot get 25 years" by Associated Press / June 30, 2011

NEW YORK — Three drug offenders caught in an elaborate FBI sting involving a phony plot to blow up New York City synagogues and shoot down military planes were sentenced yesterday to 25 years in prison by a judge who singled out one as a hateful buffoon who never could have pulled off a terrorist attack on his own....

US District Judge Colleen McMahon instead imposed the lesser sentences after repeatedly pointing out that the plot was scripted by the FBI from the start and never put anyone in real danger. Rather than foil an actual plot, the government “created acts of terrorism’’ out of Cromitie’s “fantasies of bravado and bigotry and then made those fantasies come true,’’ the judge said.  

That's why it is called the Fascist Bureau of Instigation now.

Later, she added, “Only the government could make a terrorist out of Mr. Cromitie, whose buffoonery is positively Shakespearean in its scope.’’
