Från ett par tusen tillslag tidigare år, gör den militariserade polisen, SWAT, nu över 45 000 raider om året i USA. Abby Martin berättar...
*** Terrorn har fått ett nytt ansikte för många amerikanska barnfamiljer, fattiga och minoriteter. 8 av 10 paramilitära attacker av SWAT-styrkorna skedde i s.k. undersökande syfte mot personer som bara var misstänkta för möjliga brott och då ofta mindre bagatellbrott.
- Ofta skedde attackerna från den militära insatsstyrkan för att dela ut simpla stämningar om små skitsaker...

FORT WORTH, TX -- Gun-wielding, black-suited law enforcers busted into a home with a battering ram, terrifying everyone inside and leaving one man dead. Newly released helmet-cam video of the incident shows in graphic detail how this violent no-knock raid produced yet another casualty in the vicious War on Drugs.
The raid took place on May 16th, 2013. So-called "Zero Tolerance Officers" from the Fort Worth Police Department staged raid on a suspected "drug house" with the intent of rounding up and imprisoning people for getting high without government permission. Police sought and received permission from Tarrant County Magistrate Cheyenne Minick to break into the home with no warning in order to surprise everyone inside.
In a video obtained by WFAA, an officer holding a shotgun literally sweeps his barrel past everyone he sees in the living room. First a large man sleeping on the couch, then a tiny female child dressed in blue, a woman in purple, and three men seated at a round table.
Jermaine "DJ" Darden, 34, who had been startled awake by the intrusion, received particular attention from police. Darden, a large man who weighed over 300 pounds, was having physical difficulties after being forced to the ground with several officers on top of him. He was physically unable to breathe in that position due to his asthma condition, heart disease, and the weight of the police officers.

- Video also shows Mr. Darden being tasered at least twice -- not because officers feared for their safety, but as a compliance tool.
- His body was painted with red laser dots, before a pop was heard as the sharp prongs of the device were thrust into his flesh. Sixteen seconds later, police jolted him again.
- Each jolt lasted for 5 seconds.
*Jermaine "DJ" Darden was pronounced dead at the hospital. He left behind a wife and 2 teenage sons.
*He was found with nothing illegal in his possession.

--America's Nazis in Kiev: "Russians are Subhuman"--
SvaraRaderaJune 30, 2014 (Tony Cartalucci - NEO) - Self-appointed prime minister of Ukraine, Arseny Yatsenyuk of the "Fatherland Party," referred to Russians as "subhuman," echoing the racist vitriol of Nazism Yatsenyuk and others in his regime subscribe to. It was a violent, armed coup spearheaded by Neo-Nazi militants that placed Yatsenyuk into power in the first place, along with the Neo-Nazi political front Svoboda, and paved way for fraudulent elections that predictably yielded a pro-US-EU client regime.
Yatsenyuk made his comments amid ongoing fighting in the east of Ukraine, where Kiev is waging war upon fellow Ukrainians, shelling and bombing cities in provinces that refuse to recognize the regime's seizure of power during late 2013 - early 2014. After a significant loss of life during one of Kiev's many ill-conceived military operations, Yatsenyuk stated:
They lost their lives because they defended men and women, children and the elderly who found themselves in a situation facing a threat to be killed by invaders and sponsored by them subhumans. First, we will commemorate the heroes by wiping out those who killed them and then by cleaning our land from the evil.
From fabricating an "invasion," to claims of "threatened" lives, to the labeling of Russians as "subhuman," Yatsenyuk has recited fully the script of Nazism used to justify its various historical crimes against humanity. Kiev's forces in eastern Ukraine are not fighting an "invasion," but constitute an invading force themselves, making incursions into eastern Ukraine and holding territory only through unmitigated brutality against local populations clearly collaborating with armed self-defense forces intent on resisting Kiev's authority.
