Why Was I Censored?

The question remains as to why I was censored by Fanbox. Well, it all started when I was contacted on Fanbox by a man I also spoke with on Yahoo and who later called me. I quickly determined he was running a fund raising scam for an organization considered to be terrorist by the USA.

After stewing over it I decided I couldn't risk my friends lives for some creep. I turned his info over to the FBI. The FBI reviewed it & passed it along to Homeland Security. Who determined it was actually important & it bounced around the State Dept for a while. Then one day I was interviewed by the US Dept of Justice. I explained the story & turned over everything I had.

Which probably would have been the end of it, if I was an average US citizen; or even just a regular Middle East Scholar, they probably wouldn't have dug any deeper. However, a Middle East Scholar who has recently spent time in Palestine, Jordan, Israel, Egypt, Bahrain, KSA etc got me a little harsher look.

Mix in that my grandparents worked at NSA (National Security Agency), my dad (now retired) is a nuclear physicist who did work for the Pentagon, my cousin worked on the Manhattan Project (remember Los Alamos?) and I openly voice support for Hamas...which is legal, unlike sending them a big fat check which would have me wearing an orange jumpsuit & sitting in Guantanimo!

I wound up being watched. Though judging by the clicks on my phone I must have been pretty low priority. (I assume they have much better wiretapping equipment than that by now!) However, that was the 1st time my fanbox blog locked up & when I started being restricted from using words anyone else could! The words I could use got slimmer & slimmer until now. Where I can post nothing on fanbox from my home computer. I guess it's restricted by IP? I honestly don't know.

How did I know he was a member of a terrorist org? Well, I don't think I should post that & teach people how to improve on scams! It's nothing 90% of the world would have been able to catch anyhow. Just don't send money to people you've NEVER met in person, period!
