Police Try to Kill Protester in Oakland
After "somehow" hitting a protester in the face from point-blank range with 40mm teargas canisters intended to be used from long-range as a last-ditch crowd-dispersal effort, Oakland police throw a grenade directly into the crowd of people attempting to help. http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/04/07/assassinations ``Today, both The New York Times and The Washington Post confirm that the Obama White House has now expressly authorized the CIA to kill al-Alwaki no matter where he is found, no matter his distance from a battlefield. I wrote at length about the extreme dangers and lawlessness of allowing the Executive Branch the power to murder U.S. citizens far away from a battlefield (i.e., while they're sleeping, at home, with their children, etc.) and with no due process of any kind.''
