Obama hails police state methods in Chicago
22 May 2012
President Barack Obama on Monday praised the performance of Chicago city officials and the Chicago Police Department after a week of violence, repression and frame-ups directed against antiwar demonstrators in the city.
Speaking at the conclusion of the NATO summit, Obama paid tribute to Mayor Rahm Emanuel, his political crony and former White House chief of staff, and added, referring to the thousands of police mobilized against protesters, “Chicago’s finest did a great job under significant pressure and a lot of scrutiny.”
What was this “great job?”
• Downtown Chicago was effectively shut down for four days, Friday through Monday, not by the protesters, never more than 5,000 people, but by a huge mobilization of police and paramilitary forces who frequently outnumbered the demonstrators. The entire area around McCormick Place, site of the summit, was under lockdown.
• Police arrested well over 100 demonstrators in the course of the week, including more than 60 Sunday, a day of tense confrontations in which police continually vented their hostility towards the demonstrators, who were opposing the US-NATO war in Afghanistan and other imperialist military interventions.
• The violent dispersal of the protesters late Sunday afternoon was entirely one-sided, as described by the Chicago Sun-Times—a staunchly pro-police tabloid—which headlined its account, “Riot Gear Cops Rain Down Blows on Protesters.” The beatings were so widespread and indiscriminate that one of the newspaper’s own reporters was among those bloodied. At least 25 demonstrators were injured, with a dozen requiring hospital treatment.
• Most ominously, five protesters were arrested in police raids targeting individuals supposedly preparing “terrorist” attacks on the NATO summit. The same two informants fingered all five men, after the undercover cops had circulated widely among the protesters looking for anyone they could instigate or entrap.
The charges of “conspiring to commit domestic terrorism during the NATO summit,” brought before the Cook County Circuit Court, are a deliberate attempt to intimidate opponents of the US-NATO war in Afghanistan and other imperialist military interventions either under way or being planned by the Obama administration.
The whole machinery of provocation and frame-up, erected over the past decade in the name of the “war on terror,” is now being used against the democratic rights of working people and youth who oppose the policies of the American government. As the World Socialist Web Site has consistently warned, the methods tested out against immigrants and Muslims are now being unleashed against the American people as a whole.
The Chicago frame-ups of antiwar protesters follow in the footsteps of previous provocations: last month’s arrest of five Cleveland-area Occupy protesters on similarly trumped-up charges; the systematic police violence against Occupy encampments last fall and winter; the FBI raids on the homes of antiwar activists in Minneapolis and Chicago in the fall of 2010.
They are part of a broader assault on democratic rights being carried out by the Obama administration, which has gone even further than the Bush White House in erecting the scaffolding of a police state. Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act, which gives the president the right to order the military detention, without trial, of anyone he designates as a terrorist threat, including US citizens. Obama has sharply increased targeted assassinations of alleged terrorists, including the murder of US citizens, and openly defended the president’s supposed unilateral “right” to do so.
Both big business parties are systematically shredding the Bill of Rights and stripping the American people of their constitutionally guaranteed rights.
These heavy-handed measures expose the fraudulent character of the claims by Democratic and Republican politicians that American imperialism is on the side of “democracy” and “freedom” when it wages wars against countries that possess vast reserves of oil and natural gas, or occupy strategic locations adjacent to such resources.
America is the most heavily policed of the industrialized countries. The combined forces of repression—local and state police, the military, the FBI, the CIA and other intelligence agencies, the vast apparatus of the Department of Homeland Security, the endless armies of private security personnel—number in the many millions.
In the final analysis, this vast apparatus of repression testifies to the crisis of American capitalism, not its strength. The more acute the social tensions, the more charged the political atmosphere, the deeper the resentment of working people towards the privileged elite, the more the ruling class is compelled to surround itself with what Marx and Engels described as the essence of the state—“bodies of armed men.”
The working class must take a warning from the events in Chicago on the role of the police, including their informants and provocateurs, and the role of the Obama administration.
The decisive issue is the political clarification of the working class and the development of a mass, independent political mobilization of working people and youth based on a socialist and internationalist program. Only such a mass movement, fighting to take political power and establish a workers government, can forestall the drive towards repression and dictatorship by the corporate elite and its political defenders, both Democratic and Republican.

Friends of ALIPAC,
Project Veritas, found at James O'Keefe's Project Veritas, has used the method of comparing voter registration files with jury duty records, which we have been encouraging you to use, and the findings are dramatic here in NC.
Many of you remember that thousands of illegal aliens were found to be registered to vote in Georgia when the Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper and a local TV station compared jury duty and voter registration records. We have been encouraging you to do the same over the last year in ALIPAC's efforts to expose the massive voter registration and elections fraud being perpetrated by illegal aliens in all American states!
We have two breaking stories that will allow you to make major progress on this issue. We will email you about the 180,000 suspected illegal voters found to be voting in Florida tomorrow.
Today, please take the following quick steps.
Step 1: Watch and understand the following video released by Veritas Project
NC Non-Citizens Voting, Dead Offered Ballots, UNC Officials Embrace Voter Fraud
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptSrcNvJzBQ&feature=youtu.be
Step 2: Make a comment beneath the video, vote it thumbs up, add it to your favorites, and then use e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, and forum posts to circulate this video far and wide across the nation.
Step 3: Assume that this story will be censored by the national media unless major public activism takes place. Therefore, do the legwork along with ALIPAC to send this video with encouragement for action to ....
A. All of your local state representatives and senators
B. All of your congressional representatives
"Congressional Contact Pg. US House of Representatives"
C. All of your local media including newspapers, radio shows, and TV stations. Encourage them to report these findings and replicate this research.
If enough Americans will do as we ask and keep the ball rolling then you will have an opportunity to break through and get some serious media coverage. Possibly there may even be legislation designed to stop illegal immigrants from committing the felony of stealing your vote and your voice!

“On Thursday, the House Republican leader, Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio, flatly predicted that Congress would not send an immigration
measure to the president this year. Mr. Boehner accused Democrats of engaging
in a “cynical ploy to try to engage voters, some segment of voters, to show up
in this November’s elections.”

The Power of the Hispanic Voter
Democrats
were hurt in the midterm election by low turnouts or faltering support from
voters who were young, black or female. But overwhelming
support from Hispanic voters appears to have helped elect Democratic
senators in Nevada, California, Colorado and possibly Washington State.
Hispanic voters may have kept the Senate in Democratic hands.
Several
Hispanic Republicans were also elected, including two governors, Brian Sandoval
of Nevada and Susana Martinez of New Mexico, and a senator, Marco Rubio of
Florida. But, over all, Hispanics voted at a rate of 2 to 1 for Democrats,
according to several polls, and many were stirred to action by viciously
anti-immigrant ads or comments made by Republican candidates.
Eligible
Hispanic voters represent about 9 percent of the national electorate, a slight
increase over previous years, but the percentages are much higher in the West,
climbing to 22 percent in California. They are less predictably partisan than
other ethnic groups and the two major parties have long contested for their
votes. Early polls had suggested that many were disappointed in both parties
for failing to act on immigration reform, and it appeared that they might sit
out the midterms.
Then came
a series of ads by Republican candidates like Sharron Angle, who was running
for the United States Senate in Nevada. One of hers depicted Hispanics sneaking
over the border, carrying weapons and appearing in police mug shots. Tom
Tancredo, whose anti-immigrant sentiment was already known, ran for governor of
Colorado by telling workers that their jobs were threatened by illegal
immigration. Meg Whitman, the Republican candidate for governor of California,
pandered to the same sentiment by saying her former housekeeper, an illegal
immigrant, should have been deported.
Now
Hispanic political activists had galvanizing issues. Groups like Mi Familia Vota, La Raza and Lulac spent the last weeks of
the campaign organizing voters against these diatribes. A tracking poll
conducted by Latino Decisions, a polling organization, found that the number of
very enthusiastic Hispanic voters shot up to 58 percent on Oct. 25 from 40
percent a month earlier.
As the
Hispanic electorate continues to grow faster than the overall population in the
years ahead, the 2010 election should be a useful lesson. Anti-immigrant
demagoguery occasionally works, as it did in a number of Republican victories
in Arizona this year. But more often it will produce an angry reaction among a
growing group of committed voters.

OBAMA TELLS ILLEGALS “PUNISH OUR ENEMIES”
Friends of ALIPAC,
Each day new reports come in from across the nation that our movement is surging and more incumbents, mostly Democrats, are about to fall on Election Day. Obama's approval ratings are falling to new lows as he makes highly inappropriate statements to Spanish language audiences asking illegal alien supporters to help him "punish our enemies."

No surprise
here. Pulling the race/hate card again and using political correctness La Raza
goes after cable shows reporting on illegal immigration.
"MurguĂa said she recognized that ultimately the power to change the debate lies with the Hispanic community itself. “Latinos buy products from the advertisers supporting these programs,” she said. “Latinos vote in primaries and in the general election. We have a significant role to play picking winners and losers in both arenas. We need to make it clear to those who embrace hate that they do so at their own economic and political peril.”

New Stealth Federal
Funding Bill for La Raza
Which brings us to an
extraordinary matter of some urgency. Several weeks before the White House and
its Senate allies announced their big "breakthrough" legislation
(S.1348), radicals in the House quietly introduced legislation to pump $5
million directly into La Raza next year — and $10 million per year for
"each fiscal year thereafter."
*
"This country
belongs to Mexico" is said by the Mexican Militant. This is a common
teaching that the U.S. is really AZTLAN, belonging to Mexicans, which is
taught to Mexican kids in Arizona and California through a LA Raza educational
program funded by American Tax Payers via President Obama, when he gave LA RAZA
$800,000.00 in March of 2009!
H. R. 1999, entitled the Hope Fund
Act of 2007, should truthfully be labeled the "Perpetual Funding of La
Raza Radicals Act."

CEBADA, BROWN BERETS, THE LA RAZA FASCIST PARTY
*
*
The National Council of La Raza
(NCLR) is not only one of the wealthiest and most politically powerful militant
organizations in the country, it is also notoriously racist and subversive.
The group's name, "La Raza," means "The Race," by which
they are referring to ethnic Mexicans, or more broadly to "hispanics"
or "latinos." And it is quite clear from their decades of vitriolic
rhetoric — both spoken and written — that the La Raza activists are trying to
engender not only race consciousness amongst hispanic U.S. citizens and Mexican
migrants, but also racial militancy and animosity toward "Gringo
America."
The NCLR grew out of the La
Raza Unida (The Race United) Party and the Southwest Council of La Raza in the
late 1960s and early 1970s. The key leaders were Marxist-Leninist followers of
Fidel Castro and Che Guevarra.

The radical student group
MEChA (Moviemento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan), with which NCLR has been
closely allied for several decades, is even more explicitly and militantly,
having adopted the slogan, "Por La Raza Todo, Fuera de La Raza Nada,"
which translated means: "For the Race, Everything; Outside the Race,
Nothing."
MEChA's founding documents and
literature are replete with appeals to "La Raza de Bronce" (The
Bronze Race) and condemnation of the "brutal gringo." MEChA, as its
name suggests, is also a leading promoter of the radical
"reconquista" (reconquest) movement, a plan of to take over the
states of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Texas — a region they
refer to as "Aztlan" — which they claim was stolen from the "Aztecan"
peoples. NCLR provides major financial support to MEChA and many of NCLR's
leaders were MEChA leaders in their
college days.

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
(get Malkin’s book on
OBAMA NOTED below!)
Only in America could critics of a group called "The
Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity
chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in
redefining all opposition as "hate."
Both Barack Obama and John McCain will speak this week in
San Diego at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, the
Latino organization whose name is Spanish for, yes, "The Race." Can
you imagine Obama and McCain paying homage to a group of white people who
called themselves that? No matter. The presidential candidates and the media
have legitimized "The Race" as a mainstream ethnic lobbying group and
marginalized its critics as intolerant bigots. The unvarnished truth is that
the group is a radical ethnic nationalist outfit that abuses your tax dollars
and milks PC politics to undermine our sovereignty.
*
Here are 15 things you should know about "The
Race":
*
15. "The Race" supports driver's licenses for
illegal aliens.
*
14."The Race" demands in-state tuition discounts
for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding U.S. citizens
and law-abiding legal immigrants.
*
13. "The Race" vehemently opposes cooperative
immigration enforcement efforts between local, state and federal authorities.
*
12. "The Race" opposes a secure fence on the
southern border.
*
11. "The Race" joined the American-Arab
Anti-Discrimination Committee in a failed lawsuit attempt to prevent the feds
from entering immigration information into a key national crime database -- and
to prevent local police officers from accessing the data.
*
10. "The Race" opposed the state of Oklahoma's
tough immigration-enforcement-first laws, which cut off welfare to illegal
aliens, put teeth in employer sanctions and strengthened local-federal
cooperation and information sharing.
*
9. "The Race" joined other open-borders,
anti-assimilationists and sued to prevent Proposition 227, California's
bilingual education reform ballot initiative, from becoming law.
*
8. "The Race" bitterly protested common-sense
voter ID provisions as an "absolute disgrace."
*
7. "The Race" has consistently opposed post-9/11
national security measures at every turn.
*
6. Former "Race" president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary
Clinton's Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: "U.S. English is to
Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks." He was referring to U.S.
English, the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group dedicated to
preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States. "The
Race" also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and advised the
Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while avoiding the
terms "illegal" and "amnesty."
*
5. "The Race" gives mainstream cover to a
poisonous subset of ideological satellites, led by Movimiento Estudiantil
Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA). The late GOP
Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized the organization as "a radical
racist group … one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has
permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a
racist nation out of the American West."
*
4. "The Race" is currently leading a smear
campaign against staunch immigration enforcement leaders and has called for TV
and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the
airwaves -- in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut up
their foes. The New York Times reported that current "Race" president
Janet Murguia believes "hate speech" should "not be tolerated,
even if such censorship were a violation of First Amendment rights."
*
3. "The Race" sponsors militant ethnic nationalist
charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8 million in
federal education grants). The schools include Aztlan Academy in Tucson, Ariz.,
the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Ariz., Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School
in St. Paul, Minn., and La Academia Semillas del Pueblo in Los Angeles, whose
principal inveighed: "We don't want to drink from a White water fountain,
we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain
in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain … ultimately the White
way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually
lead to our own destruction."
*
2. "The Race" has perfected the art of the PC
shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home loan
standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal "mortgage
counseling" grants, seeking special multimillion-dollar earmarks and
partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.
*
1. "The Race" thrives on ethnic supremacy -- and
the elite sheeple's unwillingness to call it what it is. As historian Victor
Davis Hanson observes: "[The] organization's very nomenclature 'The
National Council of La Raza' is hate speech to the core. Despite all the
contortions of the group, Raza (as its Latin cognate suggests) reflects the
meaning of 'race' in Spanish, not 'the people' -- and that's precisely why we
don't hear of something like 'The National Council of the People,' which would
not confer the buzz notion of ethnic, racial and tribal chauvinism."

Raza.
