Was there a violation of rights against the Arabs during Operations?
Nixon’s Operation Boulder in 1972 allowed for the FBI to spy on and harass Arabic-speaking people. Operation Abscam worked on the assumption that Arabs were obstructing domestic elections. Lastly, L.A. 8, individuals were arrested on suspicion of “terrorist attack”. This obviously isn’t fair towards Arabs. Was there a violation of rights? Should they be given reparations for what they faced?
