[saymaListserv] quakers and the pentagon

[Nancy Whitt]

A colleague sent this to me. N.

Nancy,

I saw a story on NBC national news tonight that you may not be aware
of.  The pentagon had survelliance on a Friends meeting house in Florida
because they were going to help with a peaceful protest of miltary
recruitment at a local high school.  This smacks of Viet Nam days when
peace protesters were spied upon and the public went nuts when they
found out that the pentagon was doing that.  I hope this revelation
brings about the same public outcry.

There was a whole ream of pentagon spying, but the Friends Meeting
House example was the most outlandish!

Got to watch out for those peaceful Quakers!!
