The FBI has been investigating environmental and other groups for "terrorist" activities. The ACLU has filed several Freedom of Information Act requests across the country to find out exactly what the bureau is doing. The list of clients includes many peace groups, animal rights activists, labor unions, civil rights organizations including chapters of the ACLU, and even one police watchdog group. Among the groups on the list are the American Friends Service Committee (founded by the Quakers), Code Pink, Greenpeace, and the Oregon Wildlife Federation.
