“The previously unknown programme, which began in 2008 under George W Bush to identify those with links to terrorism, has continued under President Obama to blacklist law-abiding applicants and profile Muslims as ‘national security concerns’. Migrants who have travelled through or lived in areas of known terrorist activity, wired money back to their families, attended a mosque of interest to the FBI or even given a voluntary interview to the agency, can be labelled ‘national security concerns’, the report, published on Wednesday, says. The report suggests the FBI has used the Carrp rules to pressurise immigrants into becoming informants.”
