TTT Mon, Dec 6 @9AM: THE FBI AT WAR IN MINNESOTA: The New Gestapo? KFAI FM
90.3/106.7/Online @KFAI.org
REMEMBER: CALL IN: 612-341-0980

This week, we dive into that morass commonly called national or homeland
security, but we try to get down to cases about why the FBI raided and
arrested several local activists in the antiwar movement, and why US
Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald of Chicago has now insisted that three antiwar
women activists from the Twin Cities must appear before a federal grand
jury in Chicago very soon.

TTT'S ANDY DRISCOLL and LYNNELL MICKELSEN talk with one of the activists
raided, one of the subpoenaed women and a defense counselor, along with
two former FBI agents. Why are our law enforcement agencies at all levels
being used to kill peaceful dissent from public policies that started and
keep us at continuous war inside and outside the United States?

GUESTS:
 SARAH MARTIN - Minnesota anti-war activist, Member of Women Against
Military Madness (WAMM)
 JESS SUNDIN - Leader, The AntiWar Committee
 BRUCE NESTOR - Attorney for arrested activists; Past President,
National Lawyers Guild of MN
 COLEEN ROWLEY - Former FBI Agent and Whistleblower, Attorney, now a
Minnesota anti-war activist
 MIKE GERMAN -Attorney, ACLU, Washington DC's Policy Counsel on National
Security, Immigration and Privacy; Former FBI Agent; author of Thinking
Like a Terrorist
