So, it wasn't bad enough when CNN and Huffingtonpost and other news agencies broke the news that the FBI declared the Occupy Wall Street movement a terrorist organization...
FBI considered Occupy movement potential threat, documents say - CNN.com
FBI Investigated 'Occupy' As Possible 'Terrorism' Threat, Internal Documents Show
Now, under a FIOA request, it has been revealed (and admitted by the FBI) they they planned to kill OWS leaders with suppressed sniper rifles!
FBI Document??[DELETED]? Plots to Kill Occupy Leaders ?If Deemed Necessary? - WhoWhatWhy
Here's part of the document (Redactions are labeled "DELETED")
An identified [DELETED] as of October planned to engage in sniper attacks against protestors (sic) in Houston, Texas if deemed necessary. An identified [DELETED] had received intelligence that indicated the protesters in New York and Seattle planned similar protests in Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and Austin, Texas. [DELETED] planned to gather intelligence against the leaders of the protest groups and obtain photographs, then formulate a plan to kill the leadership via suppressed sniper rifles. (Note: protests continued throughout the weekend with approximately 6000 persons in NYC. Occupy Wall Street protests have spread to about half of all states in the US, over a dozen European and Asian cities, including protests in Cleveland (10/6-8/11) at Willard Park which was initially attended by hundreds of protesters.)
There is not a shred of evidence in any of your links the FBI was planning to assassinate OWS leaders.
Your topic title is a bald faced lie.
The FBI created a plan to assassinate leaders of the movement. The articles are clear. The plan was most likely only a contingency but it was a plan they made.
