Police Crackdowns on Occupy Protests from Oakland to New York Herald the “New Military Urbanism”

After a wave of raids across the country in which police in riot gear broke up Occupy Wall Street encampments and arrested protesters, Oakland Mayor Jean Quan acknowledged in an interview with the

BBC that she participated in a conference call with officials from 18 cities about how to deal with the Occupy movement.

As police forces violently crack down on protests across the United States and Europe, we look at the increasing influence of military technology on domestic police forces. Stephen Graham is professor of Cities and Society at Newcastle University in the U.K. His book is “Cities Under Siege: The New Military Urbanism.” “What the Occupy movement is so powerful at is demonstrating that by occupying public spaces around the world, and particularly these extremely symbolic public spaces, it’s reasserting that the city is the foundation space for democracy,” Graham says.

Occupy Wall St EVICTED..ReOccupy NOW

Occupy Wall Street camp in New York (14 Nov 2011)

Once again the brutal criminal 1% set out to DESTROY anything they can’t control.. Starting with Free Speech and Occupy Wall Street

Police in New York have launched a pre-dawn operation to clear the Occupy Wall Street camp in Zuccotti Park.

The city mayor’s office said on Twitter that the protesters should “temporarily leave and remove tents and tarps” but could return once the park was clear.

Occupy Wall Street was set up in September to protests against economic inequality and had been followed by dozens of protests around the world.

A camp in Oakland, California was cleared overnight on Monday.

The New York Times said that as the operation in Zuccotti Park began at about 01:00 (06:00 GMT), police gave an announcement, saying: “The city has determined that the continued occupation of Zuccotti Park poses an increasing health and fire safety hazard.”

Leaflets were also handed out saying protesters would be allowed to return once the clearance had taken place, but not to bring camping equipment.

This means NO CAMPING and its impossible to stay on the NY streets in winter with no protection

The Eviction is similar to what happened in Barcelona 3 months ago when the Occupy Camp was cleared by brutal police by surprise at night, with the excuse of ‘cleaning’. On that occasion thousands of people took back the square the same day, and videos of police violence caused a surge in popular support.
