Theseorganizationsincludeactivistgroupsthatadvocatesabotageandviolence.Butmost arepeacefulorganizationsthatdonotadvocateviolence. Organizationsaroundtheworldthathavebeentargetsofgovernmentsurveillanceand infiltrationincludeGreenpeaceandAmnestyInternational.Othergroupsincludegayand lesbianrightsorganizations,socialistandCommunistorganizations,environmentalgroups, animalrightsgroups,middleeastorganizations,unions,peaceactivistorganizationsand humanrightsgroups[1].vi TheFairieUndergroundbelievesthefaeriemovementremainsjustoneprongofaworldwide socialistagenda,intheeyesoftheseagents.InAmerica,thegoaloftheagentsistoretain corporatecontrolledhegemoniesoverthought,politics,andaction.

Theagentscanplayonthisindifferenceby,forinstance,movingdiscussionstoFacebook.

AccordingtoUSlaw,trueagentsarenotsupposedtobeallowedtohavesexwiththeirtargets.If anagenthassexwiththetarget,thiscanresultinanyevidencetheagentobtainedasbeingtaintedin theeyesofthecourt.However,thiscanbecircumventedthroughtheuseofinformants. Furthermore,iftheoperationisjustcallingforintelligencegathering,itmaynotbeimportantthat theinformationisnotadmissible. Keepinmindthatthisisnotthecaseineverycountry.TheUKhasrecentlypassedrulesallowing undercoverpolicetohavesexwithsuspects.xvi Theundercovershoweverarenotbeyondlovestories.Therearemanycasestoname,butoneisan 18yearoldboytrickedintosellingmarijuanatoafemalepoliceofficerhehadfalleninlovewith.xvii Itiscleartheagentshavenomorality.

Outsidethesanctuary,inmanywaysthefaeriecanbesubjectedtomoreproblems,astheagents don'thavetomaintainsuchextremecover,soareusuallyabletogetawaywithagreaterrangeof actions.TheFairieUnderground'sopinionisthatthisiswhyitiscrucial(andobvious)thatthe agentscontrollingWolfCreekNomenus,inparticular,havebannedparticularfaeries.Webelievea decisionwasmadethatthedealswiththegovernmentmandatedtheycouldnotprovidesanctuary fortheindividuals.Faeriescanjustbeapproachedbyrandomoperativesonthestreet,inhotels,in cafe's,etc.Byremovingkeyactivistfaeriesfromthesanctuaries,thisisdoingaseriousblowtothe faeriemovement.IntheopinionoftheFaerieUnderground,wedon'tneedsuchplacesifitcomes toitwegotothewoods.Letthemcome! Operativesatthesanctuariesarelikelytoprovideinformationtotargetsofinterestatthe sanctuaries.Forinstance,theoperativesmayapproachfaeriesatthesanctuaryandtellthemthe locationofsafehouses,orfaeriehouses,insomecityofinteresttothefaerie.Insomecases, thesesafehouses,areactuallyrunbyDEAorotherlawenforcementoperatives,orhaveaheavy informantpresence.Theintentionofthis,istokeepthefaeriegoingplacetoplace,lookingfora safespot,wheninfactallthesafespots,whereprovidedbythegovernment.

Noonewhohasbeenraidedorsubpoenaed,noonehasengagedinanycriminalactivity, saidMr.Iosbaker,andinfact,oneoftheACLU'sexpertsMikeGerman,oneoftheir policyguysintheirWashingtonofficeinreviewingthesubpoenasandwarrantsthatwere usedinSeptember,hiscommentwasthatitwascleartohimthattherewasnocriminal activitythattheywereinvestigating.
