The FBI has compiled a 'bloated' list naming one million 'terror' suspects as complaints flow in against wrong entries, reports say.

The list, which represents nearly 400,000 individuals minus the noms de guerre used to refer to them, indicates a 32 percent increase since 2007, USA Today reported.

The suspects, 380,000 of whom are said to be aliens, risk travel bans and different security checks.

Over the past two years, chance matches has prompted 51,000 complaints by the people who had faced unexpected inspection at the airports and border posts.

The compilation, however, is referred to as 'progress' in counterterrorism efforts. An estimated 40,000 are annually added to the record.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation last year removed 33,000 of the names and claimed the omissions included either outdated information or those who had been cleared in investigations.

"We're continually trying to improve the quality of the information," says Timothy Edgar, a civil liberties officer at the intelligence director's office. "It's always going to be a work in progress."

Tim Sparapani, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) described the list as 'too bloated to be effective', saying there should be regulations as for who goes on the list.

The bureau began producing the list in 2001 and following the 9/11 attacks on the US soil as part of the administration of former president George W. Bush's controversial 'war on terror'.

Soon there will be more people on the list than not on the list! Can people find out if they are on the list...other than buying a plane ticket? Have people filed lawsuits regarding having their names on a national list...falsely accusing them of being potential terrorists? What about class-action lawsuits? I suspect that future generations will look back on this era as more disgusting than the McCarthy era. Is there a list of those who have declared war on the American people...and who are subverting the U.S. Constitution...and attempting to bring about One Nation Under Satan: The Old World Disorder Reptillian Theocracy? How about deporting all ILLEGAL aliens (including the reptillians and greys) and sealing our borders and Deep Underground Military Bases? Wouldn't this make more sense than the present list (or lists)? Someone is attempting to divide and conquer this country...so they can rule the world. Maybe I should start taking my medicine again!
