JERUSALEM – Van Jones, President Obama's controversial environmental adviser, signed a petition calling for nationwide "resistance" against police, accusing them of using the 9/11 attacks to carry out policies of torture.
The petition was organized by the October 22nd Coalition, an anti-police organization whose mission statement was drawn up by leaders of the radical Black Panther Collective for Social Progress.
The movement organizes yearly national anti-police demonstrations, accusing police of "brutality, detentions, domestic spying, profiling and other attacks on human and civil liberties." The protests are held under the banner of the National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality, Repression and the Criminalization of a Generation."
The 2006 statement, available on the website for the Revolutionary Communist Party USA, calls on participants to "resist so that we will not be crushed. Our resistance gives other people courage."
The statement accused the police of deliberately murdering civilians in cases that later were mostly ruled accidents.

If you were to receive all your news from any one of these outlets, or even all of them together, and you heard about some sort of controversy involving President Obama’s Special Adviser for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, your response would be, “Huh?” If you heard that that adviser, Van Jones, had apologized for a number of remarks and positions in the recent past, your response would be, “What?” And if you were in the Obama White House monitoring the Jones situation, you would be hoping that the news organizations listed above continue to hold the line — otherwise, Jones, who is quite well thought of in Obama circles, would be history.
The Radical Communist Van Jones must go! to Venezuela!
What was he arrested and sentenced for after the Rodney King riots?
So it is as I suspected, Van Jones is a Black Panther.
Charges against Black Panthers dropped, hiring a Black Panther as a Czar... and people laughed at Beck for saying Obama was racist.
I just did a web search of the top MSM web sites...only ABC has picked it up and its buried.
This is such a pathetic time for the American press...it is beyond shameful.
The police need to kick Van Jones’ sorry ass.
What a low-life. He fits right in with Hussein’s administration.
How is this guy not fired last week??
...and how incompetent or arrogant that he was not vetted.
I think you’ll see them report it soon. Drudge is now all over it wih 9 story links (pasted below) - even reporting the LACK OF REPORTING (at bottom).
