| Lawrence O'Donnell on Police Brutality at Occupy Wall Street | |
| Uploaded by dwdeclare on 26 Sep 2011 from the last word with lawrence o'donnell rewrite 09-26-2011 full clips of the clash between demonstrators at occupy wall street and the police: http://thelastword.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/09/26/7978720-rewrite-police-vs-p... apparently, the cop who pepper sprayed the girl in the video is Deputy Inspector Anthony V. Bologna: http://www.commondreams.org/further/2011/09/26-1 those "peace" officers who stand idly by while innocent people are being mistreated, give their tacit consent to the violence being perpetrated by their fellow cops. they are therefore just as guilty as those who commit these heinous acts. even if we grant that the "few bad apples" who carry out the clubbing, pepper spraying and roughing up of individuals are not the majority of those who make up the police force, the number of officers who allow this kind of brutality to take place by not stepping in to prevent it, surely are, as this video demonstrates, the vast majority. it is the responsibility of the police to protect people from those who would cause them harm, but when it is the police who are doing the harming (sanctioned by the state and the courts), where are the people to turn? calling all cops who still have a conscience and a sense of moral justice...come out, come out wherever you are! protect and serve. stand up for what is right! stand up for the democratic principles which make your nation great! the people demand it, and more importantly, honesty, integrity and a world where all have a right to exist without fear of exploitation, oppression and having their voices and interests silenced demands it! | |

| Matthieu Aikins: U.S. Continues to Back Afghan Warlord Linked to 2006 Massacre, | |
| Uploaded by democracynow on 27 Sep 2011 www. DemocracyNow.org - New revelations about a U.S.-backed warlord in Afghanistan are raising questions about whether the United States has violated its own laws in its aim to defeat the Taliban. The Atlantic magazine reports the United States, under both former President George W. Bush and President Obama, has actively supported the police commander in Kandahar — General Abdul Raziq — despite knowing of his involvement not just in corruption and drug smuggling, but also in major human rights abuses including killings and torture. Razik has been a key figure in the U.S. strategy of supporting Afghan warlords in order to weaken the Taliban, working closely with U.S. special forces. He was promoted to head the police in Kandahar earlier this year after playing a key role in the U.S.-backed assault on the Taliban one year ago. The allegations against Raziq include responsibility for the torture of two teenage boys and the killing of 15 people in 2006. According to an investigation by Matthieu Aikins for The Atlantic, the United States has continued supporting Raziq despite having been aware "of credible allegations that Raziq and his men participated in a cold-blooded massacre of civilians." | |
