This article discusses the FBI wire tapping of Palestinian-American Edward Said. Said died in September of 2003. Said began appearing in FBI records in February of 1971 in a domestic security investigation. Following the attack at the 1972 Munich Olympics, FBI interest grew in Palestinian-Americans including Edward Said. Said's background, citizenship information, as well as voting, banking and credit reports were investigated by the FBI in October of 1972.
