FBI Took Photos of Antiwar Activists in 2002

An FBI report from November 2002 indicates that an agent photographed members of the Thomas Merton Center as they handed out leaflets opposing the impending war in Iraq. The report called the group a “left-wing organization advocating, among many political causes, pacifism.”

The same memo notes that one of the leaflet distributors “appeared to be of Middle Eastern descent” but that no other participants appeared to be from the Middle East.
