Break-ins, death threats, and the FBI : the covert war against the Central America movement

Break-ins, Death Threats and the FBI: The Covert War Against the Central America Movement raises the curtain on the Bureau’s secret attempts to undermine and demonize the nationwide network of individuals and protest groups opposed to the Reagan Administration’s Central America policies and programs. Ross Gelbspan demonstrates that the more than two hundred verified instances of break-ins, burglaries, death threats, harassment, and arson cannot be viewed, as many preferred, as a series of scattered horror stories; this campaign must be recognized as a unified plot to eliminate critics and opponents of Reagan’s Central America initiatives....
