FBI Exploits Mentally Ill in 'Homegrown' Terrorism Effort
'It is now an established pattern: the government seeks out mental cases and disturbed individuals and turns them into "al-Qaeda" terrorists, or wannabe al-Qaedaites. Narseal Batiste, "the accused ringleader of a wacky terrorist cell" in Miami, as the New York Daily News puts it, "needs psychiatric help," according to his father, Narcisse Batiste. "He was distraught after his beloved mother, Audrey, died in 2000, relatives told The News, and the next year he left Chicago and dropped out of sight."
From all accounts, Narseal Batiste is not an over-the-top mental case like Zacarias Moussaoui, but it appears he is vulnerable enough to be exploited by the government, determined to fabricate "homegrown" terrorists.'
