* However, the F.B.I. later stated it was investigating it as a hoax threat.

And how did the President, who said he was 'intimately familiar' with the
incident, come to believe that

exception authorized the Agency to distribute the communication if it relates

P468-469: Within the United States, FISA still leaves the NSA free to pull
into its massive vacuum cleaner every telephone call and message entering,
leaving, OR TRANSITING the country.
By carefully inserting the words "by the National Security Agency" into the
FISA legislation, the NSA has skillfully excluded from the coverage of the
FISA statute as well as the surveillance court all interceptions received
from the British GCHQ or any other non-NSA source.
Thus it is possible for GCHQ to monitor the necessary domestic circuits
and pass them on to the NSA through the UKUSA Agreement, giving them
impunity to target and watch-list Americans.

o 5 SLA people burned to death from a tear gas grenade.
o An armed wholed-up person burned to death in San Diego on May 2, 1997.
The police fired CS gas into the house. According to the Union Tribune
newspaper: as the CS gas filled the house it ignited, and caused the
entire structure and surrounding trees to be engulfed in flames.
o A member of a violent militia group called 'The Posse' was armed and
wholed up: they simply *purposely* set the house on fire. Burned
him to death.
o Philadelphia police purposely drop an incindiary device on the top
of a building housing an armed and holed-up African-American group
(men, woman & children) called 'Move'. They burned down the entire
neighborhood of 62 homes. 9/28/96 NYT: 1.5 million dollars was awarded
to survivors. Eleven men, women and children died in the fire purposely
set ("a satchel of explosives") by Police Commissioner Gregore Sambor
and Fire Chief William Richmond to open a hole in the building for tear
gas delivery. But Pennsylvania state law was ruled to grant them
personal immunity from Federal civil rights charges because they were
state employees [what???]. The incident occurred in May 1985.
o Waco. CS tear gas attack by the FBI using Army tanks.
The government, across the decades, keeps managing to burn people to death,
rather than bringing them to trial.
Often, tear gas is involved.

equipment.
The same technology that is used against free speech can be used
to protect it, for without protection the future may be grim.
Senator Frank Church, chairman of the Senate Intelligence committee, referring
to the NSA's SIGINT technology:
At the same time, that capability at any time could be turned around
on the American people and no American would have any privacy left,
such is the capability to monitor everything: telephone conversations,
telegrams, it doesn't matter.
There would be no place to hide.
If the government ever became a tyranny, if a dictator ever took charge
in this country, the technological capacity that the intelligence commun-
ity has given the government could enable it to impose total tyranny,
and there would be no way to fight back, because the most careful effort
to combine together in resistance to the government, no matter how
privately it was done, is within the reach of the government to know.
Such is the capability of this technology...
I don't want to see this country ever go across the bridge.
I know the capacity that is there to make tyranny total in America, and
we must see to it that this agency and all agencies that possess this
technology operate within the law and under proper supervision, so that
we never cross over that abyss.
That is the abyss from which there is no return.

Although I visited NSA headquarters at Fort Meade dozens of times, it was
at the Special Collection Services (SCS) at College Park, Maryland, that
I received my covert operation training and assignments.
This facility, set in suburban Washington, DC, dealt exclusively with
covert operations. [The facility was relocated closer to Fort Meade in
the early 1990s]
The first time I was driven there in 1978, I entered through a strip mall
and then through a door in the back of a restaurant; the second time, via
a dry cleaners.
These dinky businesses in a fake shopping center were all owned, operated,
and staffed by US espionage agencies. From the street, the installation's
high-tech capacity, its antennae and satellite receptors, were camouflaged
and it is unlikely that neighbors suspected anything out of the ordinary.
But the inside was anything but ordinary. There were scores of rooms crammed
with administrative functions, equipment, wires, jury-rigged gizmos, a
currency bank, and computers.
Every electronic intercept capability NSA denied having was right there.
In a small black box, not much bigger than a briefcase, was "Oratory."
This portable key-word selection computer could be taken almost anywhere
and set to pick out pre-selected words and automatically monitor and
record fax, voice, or teletype messages that contained them.
Developed by NSA, "Oratory" was "tempest-proof" (i.e. shielded to
prevent emmisions that could lead to detection), small, virtually
indestructible, and easy to repair: all you had to do was open the
