Trial by Entrapment
               Adam Serwer


 A plot to bomb the D.C. subway system. An attack on American
 troops at Fort Dix, New Jersey. An attempt to kill Americans holding 
a Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in Portland, Oregon.


All of these potential terrorist attacks sound frighting, but not a single
one was ever in danger of actually happening. They were all part of
a a series of elaborate sting operations orchestrated by the government
in its attempt to be proactive about proactive about preventing domestic
terrorism. It didn't want to wait for body counts on the evening news.


 I chose this article because this has been an oncoming problem in the United States.
I really agree with this article why would us Americans wait until the Evening News
reports deaths because of a terrorist attack.  We wouldn't want another attack like 9/11
to happen again. I really like this passage. I would have to say this article really shows
what going on.
