New York Police Department head admits undercover cops are spying on activists in Canada and France!
Edited on Tue Sep-27-11 02:44 PM by Better Believe It
Now you know they're not just spying on alleged "terrorists" in other nations. In the tradition of 1950's "red squads", the New York city undercover cops are certainly targeting all kinds of dissidents and protestors. And they also claim they can now blow out of the sky any plane flying over New York City they think might be under the control of terrorists! Rest easy at night New Yorkers. New York's "finest" will knock that sucker out of the sky .... hopefully not in your neighborhood! BBI


NYPD chief: We could take down plane if necessary
Counter-terror measures to be used only in a 'very extreme situation,' commissioner says
msnbc.com staff and news service reports
September 26, 2011

The New York Police Department could take down a plane if necessary, Commissioner Ray Kelly said Sunday, describing the counter-terror measures he implemented after the Sept. 11 attacks.

"We couldn't rely on the federal government alone. I believed that we had to create our own counter-terrorism capacity, indeed our own counter-terrorism division. And, that plan was put into effect fairly rapidly," he added.

Kelly also told "60 Minutes" that the NYPD has intelligence officers stationed in cities around the world, including Abu Dhabi, Amman, Montreal, Toronto, Singapore and Paris.

"They're there to act as trip wires or listening posts" he said. "Is there anything going on there that (as I say) can help us better protect the city."



New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, right, is credited with shaping the NYPD's counter-terror effort.

3. And if need be, I'm sure that Blackwater (Xe) could be contracted to help out with any extraordinary
needs that might arise in any given situation within the state of NY, our nation or anywhere around the globe.
