Anti-War Website Operator Threatened By Armed Thugs
Anti-War Website Operator Threatened By Armed Thugs
Paul Joseph Watson | Prison Planet
The operator of a leading alternative news and strongly anti-war website has become the target of nefarious thugs apparently in the employ of the U.S. government who have continually harassed him and ordered him to shut down his website.
Tom Feeley, owner and editor of InformationClearingHouse.info, has endured public harassment, home invasions, death threats and threats to his family simply for running a website.
Counterpunch writer Mike Whitney has circulated an e mail describing what happened to Feeley in an attempt to draw attention to the matter.
Whitney writes that earlier this week Feeley’s wife was startled to suddenly discover three well dressed men standing in her kitchen who told her that Tom must “Stop what he is doing on the Internet, NOW!”
To emphasize the point, the thug pulled back his jacket to reveal a gun while barking out the warning.
Tom’s wife was hysterical and refuses to go back to the house. She contacted the FBI but was told there was nothing they could do.
According to Whitney, “The well-dressed man told Tom’s wife that he knew where her son lived, what line of work he was in, and how many children he had.”
Subsequently, two men in a parked car a block from Tom’s mother’s house were spotted using laptops and sped off when they were approached by Tom’s son.
A similar incident had happened four years previously, when Feeley was approached by a stranger in the parking lot of Long’s Drug store in Southern California, after being forced to remain in his car by an accomplice who blocked him from opening the car door. The man told him, “You need to stop what you are doing on the web”.
Tom said the man was overweight and had his shirt untucked. Tom was taken aback, but (after collecting himself said) “What the fuck? Who do you think you are telling me what I can do?”
The man answered, “Tom, I’m just giving you some good advice. You should take my advice, Tom.”
I’ll tell you this about Tom Feeley; he is no bullshitter,” writes Whitney, “He is the “real deal” and completely committed to exposing the mob that is presently running our country. He does not understand why, (as he says) “They are reaching down SO far to get someone who just runs web site”. But, the truth is, they are. Someone wants him to “shut up” and they apparently have the muscle to do it. He knows he is in danger.”
Feeley is ditching his cellphone and maintaining a low profile but to his credit, refuses to cave in to the threats and will continue to publish his website.
Drawing attention to Feeley’s situation is of paramount importance to ensure his protection and also to combat head on attempts to create a chilling atmosphere and intimidate journalists and website publishers.

What do you expect under this criminal administration.
It started with corruption when Bush and Cheney stole the 2000 election and has went to h... every since.
We no longer have any senate , House , laws or constitution.
Bush said the constitution was nothing but a G.D. piece of paper and he could do anything he wish.
The Senate and the House have approved his statement and has given him everything he demanded every since.
What is our democracy , constitution , bill of rights if it suppose to still exist.
Can you immagine any other president committing these crimes in the past ,,, must less Clinton even talking about them.
DAMN !
I can't think of anything else to say, this is totally shocking!
IMPEACH BUSHCO & RICO PNAC/AIPAC...PNAC is Bush/Cheney's "Helter Skelter" !
WE MUST DEFEAT MCCAIN!!!
The corect answer is
If you really seriously believe that the Bush administration is hassling this guy over an anti-war website you deserve to be committed to the same institution as this man and his wife.
This is nothing but a cry for help and I hope they receive it.
It's the left in America that is fond of cutting off the debate. They're for free speech for everyone except conservatives.
It's probably Blackwater,
It's probably Blackwater, but since the city just received a shitload of Homeland Security money, who knows?
govt thugs
I wonder it it isn't time to buy a gun?
donate! donate! donate!
Whatever you can afford. Even small amounts are a sign of support and solidarity which are so very important during times like this.
Don't let the bullies win!
The Cossacks Are Here
(this poem is satire, though I am horrified to see that Tom's situation is real; may this poem help further educate our people as to the vile nature of the "Cossacks" operating outside of the law for the purposes of furthering the Republican imperial war state)
THE COSSACKS ARE HERE
the Cossacks are coming hurrah hurrah
the Cossacks are coming for you grandma
the Cossacks are coming they’re coming huzzah
the Cossacks are coming for you

the Cossacks are coming say I b-b-beg you p-p-p-please
the Cossacks are coming because you’re the disease
the Cossacks are coming unlock your door
the Cossacks are standing on your kitchen floor
the Cossacks are calling your mother a whore
the Cossacks are coming because of the war
the Cossaks are coming they love their job
the Cossacks are coming they are no snob
the Cossacks will come for any old Bob
the Cossacks are coming for Bob
the Cossacks are coming you won’t know why
the Cossacks are coming they don’t seem shy
the Cossacks are coming to watch you die
the Cossacks are humming and eating your pie
