Geraldo Rivera says FBI Seduced Islamic Terrorists

Just heard about this:
Geraldo Rivera is adamant that the FBI seduces terrorists into terrorist acts!

What a weirdo! In the latest close-call, four of Mohamed Hussain's buddies did the right thing. One did the best thing and reported Mohamed to the FBI. It does not look any different than when news people catch sexual predators and the potential victim is played by an adult actress. In this case, the potential victims were real and the weapon was impotent.

“Every person Mr. Martinez asked to join in his scheme either declined to participate, tried to talk him out of it, or reported him to the FBI,” US Attorney Rod Rosenstein said in a statement. “There is no evidence that Mr. Martinez received direction or support from any other person.”

CBS Evening News reports:

In one conversation, Martinez said, "[W]e blow one recruiting center up, then we hit another one, there's no more recruiting centers in Maryland."

As evidence the government also cites Facebook postings including, "[T]he sword is cummin (sic) the reign of oppression is about 2 cease..."
