I highly recommend "The FBI War on Tupac Shakur and Black Leaders" by John Potash. This book is a treasure trove of details explaining intelligence agencies Cointelpro program against activist Black community leaders and celebrities starting with the Black Panthers to the deaths of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls and continuing to the present date.
The style of writing reminds me of Mae Brussells in the scope of details, names, connections and a step-by-step guide on how to divide and conquer a movement or a person through scandal, lawsuits, imprisonment, propaganda, and murder. After reading this book it becomes a whole lot easier to see the same thing being done on a global stage.
And this from Mr. Potash at the end:
As of February 2008, the FBI and Homeland Security had over 23,000 representatives of private corporations working with them as part of a group called InfraGard. According to InfraGard's website, these members come from 350 of the nation's Fortune 500 companies. Director Robert Mueller told an InfraGard convention, whose members came from 86 chapters nationwide, that they were to alert the FBI of any "suspicious activity or an unusual event." In turn, Mueller said, "they could sic the FBI on 'digruntled employees who will use the knowledge gained on the job against their employers.'"
More importantly, an InfraGard member blew the whistle on a very ominous role spelled out for his group. The whistleblower told The Progressive magazine editor Matthew Rothschild that agents of the FBI and Homeland Security addressed his chapter recently. The whistleblower said the agents told his chapter that "when--not if--martial law is declared, it was our responsibility to protect our portion of the infrastructure, and if we had to use deadly force to protect it, we couldn't be prosecuted."
While the FBI and a national leader of InfraGard denied this claim, Rothschild interviewed another member, Christine Moerke, who confirmed it. A third chapter member, a CEO of a Wisconsin business, wouldn't deny that the agents made these statements, but lauded the InfraGard's "public-private partnership." The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) claims that the FBI folded "22,000 corporate bigwigs...into its domestic surveillance machinery," and that they are beyond the reach of the Freedom of Information Act under the "trade secrets" exemption.
