This practice goes way back, and I know for a fact that it is employed extensively in the USA and has been since the 1970′s. They are called ‘agent provocateur’s’. They are undercover FBI or other government agents, they infiltrate a group of malcontents (who generally have legitimate gripes with the government or supporting institution or wealthy individual), and then they encourage this group to do something for which the FBI can either discredit them with or arrest them. This is the ‘legitimate’ method that the rich and powerful use to destroy their enemies and make certain that no formidable opposition groups ever arise in this country.
Gone are the days when a grass roots revolution could ever occur. The rich control the media, the laws, the courts, the government, and the agencies to police society. Anyone who raises a voice of opposition gets infiltrated and destroyed.

These agents, and their wives, children, husbands, fathers, mothers, etc., etc., etc., can themselves become legitimate targets of true patriots, and should be-consistently!!! The 1%, and the governments that they own, need to be erradicated, as they are a detriment and a threat to humanity-worldwide!
