U.S. College Students Reminded To Watch out For Terrorist Activity

Various alternative news sources on the Internet, otherwise known as the only news you can believe are reporting recent activity by the FBI visiting several American universities and technical colleges in a stepped-up effort to further their role as Big Brother Brown Shirts to students.

Armed with a set of guidelines to assist American youth in their role as individual terrorist watchdogs, whistleblowers and stool pigeons, college and university administrators have been supplied with thier own copies and told in no uncertain terms that it would be in their best interests to abide by the contents. It's a matter of national security, you see..

Titled "Your Role in Combating The Insider Threat", the guidelines stipulate rules that will prevent American secondary education students from:

  • travelling abroad without seeking permission from the proper authorities
  • showing an interest in their colleagues' work
  • having friends outside the United States
  • working late at the campus
  • engaging in independent research
  • making extra money without the prior consent of the authorities.

The guidelines explain how to spot a suspected terrorist in a set of "Suitablity Issues" which are intended to heighten one's awareness of suitability factors and potential espionage indicators. Suitability factors include this from the guidelines: “one-fourth of known American spies experienced a personal life crisis (such as a divorce, death of someone close, or a love affair gone awry) in the months before they decided to attempt espionage.”

In other words, the FBI wants American college students to believe that their best friend who is in mourning following the death of a parent should now become suspect because that friend now has a high possibility of being recruited by a terrorist group.

Other indicators that your friend or colleague just might be a terrorist include:

  • Drug or alcohol abuse.
  • Repeated irresponsibility.
  • An “above the rules” attitude.
  • Financial irresponsibility.
  • Repeated impulsive behaviors.
  • Extreme immaturity.
  • Willingness to violate the rights of others to achieve one’s own ends.
  • Accumulating or overwhelming life crises or career disappointments.
  • Willingness to break rules or violations of laws and regulations.

In other words, every last teenager in the United States. Read the guidelines here:
