... former assistant director of the FBI admits it's in the bureau's best interest to inflate the supposed terror threat.

"If you’re submitting budget proposals for a law enforcement agency, for an intelligence agency, you’re not going to submit the proposal that ‘We won the war on terror and everything’s great,’ cuz the first thing that’s gonna happen is your budget’s gonna be cut in half. You know, it’s my opposite of Jesse Jackson’s ‘Keep Hope Alive’—it’s ‘Keep Fear Alive.’ Keep it alive."
I found a short video on YouTube of an interview between Richard French (Regional News Network) and David Heilbroner, the co-director of the HBO documentary 'The Newburgh Sting'. In it David briefly summarizes the film explaining how the FBI was responsible for setting up and coaching the four men accused in this 'terror plot'.
