New research in the journal American Behavioral Scientist<\/em> (Sage publications, February 2010) addresses the concept of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153State Crimes Against Democracy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (SCAD). Professor Lance deHaven-Smith from Florida State University writes that SCADs involve high-level government officials, often in combination with private interests, that engage in covert activities for political advantages and power. Proven SCADs since World War II include McCarthyism (fabrication of evidence of a communist infiltration), Gulf of Tonkin Resolution (President Johnson and Robert McNamara falsely claimed North Vietnam attacked a US ship), burglary of the office of Daniel Ellsberg\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s psychiatrist in effort to discredit Ellsberg, the Watergate break-in, Iran-Contra, Florida\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 2000 Election (felon disenfranchisement program), and fixed intelligence on WMDs to justify the Iraq War.1<\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
