There is a court hearing scheduled for The Newburgh Four at 10am.
The vigil will take place EVEN IF THE HEARING IS POSTPONED.On May 20, 2009, federal and New York City authorities arrested four
men on charges of plotting domestic terrorist attacks in the
Riverdale section of the Bronx. Lawyers for the men, now known as
the Newburgh Four, recently filed a motion to dismiss the federal
charges, citing entrapment by a paid government informant.
The indictment of the Newburgh Four is just one in a long series of
illegal entrapments. The FBI hires Muslim criminals as agents
provocateur to infiltrate Muslim communities and try to involve
innocent law abiding members in illegal activities by large gifts of
money, friendship, trickery and manipulation. The same criminal
agent provocateur who entrapped two men in Albany was able to entrap
the four men in Newburgh. One has severe mental problems, one was a
cocaine addict, one was homeless. The agent reportedly offered them
tens of thousands of dollars to join the conspiracy. The use of
agents provocateur by the FBI is morally wrong and a danger to the
rule of law in this country.
JUSTICE FOR THE NEWBURGH FOUR! END FBI ENTRAPMENT NOW!
