I heard on the TV news of the violence- the protest about "Cop City" down in Atlanta Georgia, and I did not understand who or why. So I searched online for information, and found that the beginning was all about a park and forest land being demolished to make way for a massive training center for police.
I do respect our police, but I do not support America becoming a 
Police State, with those already in power doing all they can to gain and
 keep more power. 
Furthermore public parks and nature reserves should not be usurped by
 local, state or federal governments here in America to further 
militarize our police.   
This situation sounds so much like Israel as Israel freely usurps 
Palestinian land, training Zionist soldiers and testing weapons and 
tactics on the Palestinians in the illegally occupied territories, and 
then demonizing any and all who dare protest.    
I searched for more information on the people behind "Cop City" to 
see if Israel was connected to this project. First thing I find is a 
polished piece of propaganda that points to major American corporations 
that I won't name because I think that article is a misdirecting 
smokescreen created to protect Israel.  
Criticize Israel's state sponsored terrorism and you get wrongly 
accused of being an anti-Semitic.  That accusation silences many people,
 stifling an honest and helpful conversation, thereby allowing 
corruption and cruelty to flourish in racist Israel, and here in America
 as well. 
Training for peace, progress, and respect for all human beings (regardless of race or religion) does not require urban warfare tactics.
Protests about police violence in our cities include the plea for 
money to be spent on the people's needs.  The only way to stop 
the violence in our cities is with crucial social programs and 
investments so that all Americans have a better chance to find decent 
jobs and create good lives for themselves.  
I did find one article from 2021 "Israel and the militarization of Atlanta's police" pointing out that Georgia International Law Enforcement Exchange "has been exchanging technology, homeland security policies, and community policing tactics with the IPF through the GILEE program"
https://georgiastatesignal.com/israel-and-the-militarization-of-atlantas-police/
That information should be front and center with all news coverage 
concerning this situation, not buried away where few see it, because  
that very foreign county called Israel really does have undue influence
 over our elected leaders, our media, our technology (Pegasus) and now 
our police.   
This is a very scary situation. Our democracy is in danger of imploding thanks to the influence of Israel.
International law and basic human rights should matter, so should the people of Atlanta.
