This "point paper" was created on March 2, 2009 - after the revelations of Tacoma Police Department's Homeland Security Meeting Minutes. These minutes were posted to Seattle and Portland Indymedia and are discussed in this Army document. The interesting thing is that this all happened 5 months prior to the naming of John Jacob Towery as a US Army spy in Tacoma and Olympia Washington.
