Reno anti-war rally listed in California security report

RENO, Nev. (AP) - A Reno political rally was listed in a California Office of Homeland Security's daily briefing by mistake, a spokesman for the office said Friday, as officials tried to explain why details about several upcoming political events had been included in two anti-terror briefings.

"We have no interest in political groups, period," said Chris Bertelli. "Our policy has been clear and unambiguous since Day One. We do not monitor the activities of political groups in California or Nevada or anywhere else in the country."

The Iraq war protest held March 18 by the Reno Anti-War Coalition in downtown Reno was the only Nevada event among 10 political demonstrations listed on a California homeland security report submitted that same month.

Officials say it was draft report produced by consultants at SRA International, a company hired to provide counterterrorism analysis, who were developing the daily briefings. The consultants were told to stop including the information about political events, Bertelli said.
