FBI Allegedly Trained NJ Blogger to Incite Others
I know, the link to this is via Breitbart, so take it with a grain of salt. But the report is from AP. And the issues this raises are crucial. If anyone thinks there are no agents provocateur on DU, or elsewhere on the interwebs, this story should give some pause.

Attorney: FBI trained NJ blogger to incite others
Aug 18
By KATIE NELSON
Associated Press Writer

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - A New Jersey blogger facing charges in two states for allegedly making threats against lawmakers and judges was trained by the FBI on how to be deliberately provocative, his attorney said Tuesday.

Hal Turner worked for the FBI from 2002 to 2007 as an "agent provocateur" and was taught by the agency "what he could say that wouldn't be crossing the line," defense attorney Michael Orozco said.

"His job was basically to publish information which would cause other parties to act in a manner which would lead to their arrest," Orozco said.

Prosecutors have acknowledged that Turner was an informant who spied on radical right-wing organizations, but the defense has said Turner was not working for the FBI when he allegedly made threats against Connecticut legislators and wrote that three federal judges in Illinois deserved to die.

1. "Hal Turner"? I'm already suspicious.
But the BushCo* FBI pulling false-flag ops and employing agent provocateurs? Not so much. Didn't they (the FBI) get laughed out of court a few times with their dramatics?

2. I knew Hal Turner. We were on the same station.
He's full of shit. He's just trying to play "cover your ass" for his incitements to violence.
