The Meaning of the OWS Day of Protest
Occupy Wall Street has carried out its day-long action throughout the country — blocking the ability of people to get to work, attempting to close down the New York City subways, and generally acting in a disruptive fashion in all the cities in which they carried out their activities.
Thursday’s New York Post carries the most complete and vivid coverage. The paper reported that “the march began peacefully, but quickly grew tense and escalated as cops arrested 60 people that had tried to jump over barricades near Wall Street. Others were cuffed and hauled off after they sat on the ground in defiance after cops had ordered them to scatter.”
By day’s end, nearly 300 people had been arrested in New York City for various offenses, including throwing vinegar in the eyes of four police officers, and for injury to some others who had harmful objects thrown at them.
Decades ago, when I was among the anti-Vietnam War protesters, I recall that the Left of that era had two chants. The first was “The people, united, will never be defeated,” which it picked up from various third-world revolutionary groups. It seemed to me that this was always said in the time in which the Left was on the verge of defeat. The second was: “The streets belong to the people.” Of course, that particular chant revealed our own arrogance: we were not “the people,” but actually middle-class students living off our parents’ largesse, and in the process of alienating the actual people, who were too busy working at jobs to join us in the streets, even if some of them did not support the Vietnam War. On Thursday, OWS had a variant. When police asked them to get off Wall Street, they responded, as The Daily News reported, with: “Whose street? Our street.”
In the day’s OWS protest, the motley crew of old New Left veterans, younger self-proclaimed socialists, Communists, and anarchists, as well as a bunch of New York University students protesting their private university’s tuition hikes, were to be joined by the SIEU and other AFL-CIO affiliates, who have decided to link their dwindling power to the OWS bandwagon — a move that will eventually backfire and lead to further erosion of trade union strength. After all, a movement that seeks to prevent working people from getting to their jobs is not likely to be popular with the union rank-and-file.
This week, even the usually hesitant Anti-Defamation League released a report that showed how much of the OWS included supporters of Hamas, opponents of Israel’s right to exist, and old fashioned anti-Semites. “History demonstrates,” Abe Foxman of the ADL said, how “time and again… economic downturns can embolden anti-Semites to spread malicious conspiracy theories and promote stereotypes about Jews and money. As a consequence, these statements must not be left unchallenged.” To date, no official representatives of OWS have addressed this issue.
A few days ago, the ADL released a more definitive condemnation, obviously because no one from the OWS responded to Foxman, who implied that the anti-Semites were just a fringe element of the protest.
Citing the endorsement of OWS by the BDS movement, the ADL statement proclaimed the following:
The first formal attempt to unite OWS and the anti-Israel movement came from the Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) National Committee, the coordinating body of the global BDS campaign against Israel. On October 13, 2011, the committee issued a statement expressing solidarity with OWS and describing the objectives of the two movements as similar. The statement, titled “Occupy Wall Street not Palestine!,” called on Occupy protesters to incorporate the Israeli-Palestinian conflict into their demands: “So as you break your own chains and build your own effective resistance against corporate tyranny, we ask you to demand a just peace for all the peoples in the Middle East…. Palestinians, too, are part of the 99% around the world that suffer at the hands of the 1% whose greed and ruthless quest for hegemony have led to unspeakable suffering and endless war.” ADL also cites the words of Phyllis Bennis, a leader of the left-wing think tank, The Institute for Policy Studies, who put their united goals in these words:
“What we are really seeing there is really a classic example of the one percent, where most of our interests do not lie, controlling the 99 percent, the one percent being Israel and its supporters in the United States.”
Anti-Semitism, once condemned in the last century by the German Social-Democrat August Bebel as “the socialism of the fools,” is again emerging as part and parcel of the OWS protest in this country and abroad. It is clear that the participants and leaders see the two fights they are engaged in as one and the same. The ADL article continues with citations of anti-Semitic incidents all occurring at OWS protests in the last month. Read these if you are the slightest bit in doubt of the reality.
Good for Ron Radosh for bringing out the heavy presence of antisemitism. I wonder how many of the demonstrators are inheritors of hippie counter-cultural mysticism, as in the Green movement. I wrote about that here today: http://clarespark.com/2011/11/17/blood-meridian-and-the-deep-ecologists/. Cormac McCarthy, the hugely admired author du jour, makes no bones about the science-based materialist [jewified] pseudo-civilization that he detests. I would wager that a good many of the protesters feel the same.
“The big question is whether or not the Democrats will continue to endorse the sentiment and cause of OWS.”
Right. The big question is whether the mud-slinging against the Dems (associating them with communism, anti-Semitism, Hamas, etc.) will distract the voters from the clown show that the GOP presidential candidates are performing daily.
PS – Today’s headline act: Romney erases his past (or tries to).
http://www.tnr.com/blogs/the-stump
Patriot493,
Romney is a slippery fellow who has difficulty understanding when he is wrong and likes to edit his past writings to minimize their harmful impact on his current candidacy.
No matter how you try to run away, you and your progressive friends have permanently chained yourselves to the OWS movement. Nadler, Obama, Warren, Pelosi,Bloomberg etc have all come out endorsing the protesters who are riddled with drug addicts and dealers, rapists, sexual predators, common thieves,and un toilet trained rabble who defecate in the street, on peoples doorsteps, and on police cars. Disease is part of the movement as the dust cloud follows Pigpen.Those are your people.
It is distinctive that you liberals find OSW behavior attractive and empathize with the trash that gathers at the park. It is your 100 year record of anti free market policy that is responsible for the rot that has beset our once industrious nation. It is the progressive movement that has so bankrupted our nation that even the mighty engine free enterprise is atrophied to the point that we have unemployment at 9+% and it is likely to linger near there for years to come. It is the government that you liberals so love that always over promises and always underdelivers. When the government, state and local, takes more than 35% of GDP that means upward mobility withers. That is soley the responsibility of you progressives.
Yup, Patriot493 you own it, it’s all yours. Congratulations.
@Ramizdat:
Very nicely stated! Thank you!
Very good Cali! Thanks!
Clown Show act of the week … maybe the month … maybe the campaign: Rick Perry, drenched in flop sweat, has called for a part-time citizen legislature, challenged Nancy Pelosi to debate, run ads wherein he describes President Obama’s policies as “socialist” and called on any lawmaker who commits insider trading to be put in prison.
Next: To win the Jewish vote, he will propose that Congress change its name to the Knesset. Said Perry, “It couldn’t hurt.”
” has called for a part-time citizen legislature, challenged Nancy Pelosi to debate, run ads wherein he describes President Obama’s policies as “socialist” and called on any lawmaker who commits insider trading to be put in prison.”
And the issue is? Oh, that’s right, you’re a lefty useful idiot.
So tell me, is your President going to go back on the endorsement he gave OWS?
YOU are the one doing the distracting.
You came here into a discussion of OWS and immediately tried to change the subject to the Republicans.
And unfortunately, one or two folks here fell for your ploy and started talking about Republicans.
Take this message back to your fellow human trash:
Leave us alone.
I’m not part of the 1%.
I’m not a wealthy man at all, not by a long shot.
But I don’t want human trash like OWS pretending to speak for me. I don’t appreciate it, I don’t want it, and I want them to stop it.
It’s not mud slinging when we call the liberals all those things because it’s true. Stating a fact is not mud slinging.
“Patriot”493, you are either a seriously deluded useful idiot or a fellow travelling propagandist. There is no “Democratic Party” anymore and hasn’t been since the ’80s. The symbiosis that was achieved in the early ’90s between the increasingly leftist controlled Democrats and the largely communist public employee union dominated AFL-CIO turned what had been the Democratic Party into a Socialist Labor Party. If you’d like to find the old SDS/Weathermen of the ’60s, look no further than the appartchnik level of the big public employee unions like AFSCME and the two teachers’ unions. It says something that the once radical AFT is viewed by many as a bunch of mensheviks.
Now we are faced with a collusion between Soros’ cabal and the now-communist controlled Democrats and their President manque, Comrade Obama, the “clean, articulate” mouthpiece. We know who he is, we know who you are, and we know what you want.
Mmmmm, no, sorry. The question is: How does the Democrat establishment extricate itself from the sticky, reeking bog that it purposely strode into? Obama Nation, and its state-run media, owns the Fleabagger movement. See how they twist and shout.
Mostly agree, but I wouldn’t describe the ADL as “usually hesitant”. They tend to be pretty alarmist, to the point where it’s starting to be “the boy who cried wolf”, in my opinion.
True, and the SPLC sees armed militias behind every rock and tree. When the purpose of an organization is to warn us about something, it’s going to find plenty of it everywhere. What are they going to say? “Nope, no racism/anti-semitism/etc. here. Everything’s fine!” One, it wouldn’t be true. Two, it would make those charitable donations dry up pretty quick.
The mistake we (and the organization sometimes) make is believing that the nasty incidents they report are part of a “growing trend.” There’s always a “growing trend” for us to be afraid of. Not surprising, since a real trend would energize the said organizations, give their workers a renewed sense of urgency and purpose, focus media attention on them, and possibly increase their contributions.
When all you got is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
The real question is: what about the young? Do they, by and large, support OWS? Because the Boomers and even the Gen Xers will eventually die out with age, leaving the current crop of Millennials and their progeny in control of the country.
If the young support this madness, we can look forward to the most fearsome dictatorship the world has ever seen.
Yet the mamby-pamby parents of said “millenial” children cannot understand this. By monitoring them every minute of every day, controlling everything they eat, see, touch, etc, they have created monsters who actually believe that everything should be controlled and all decisions made for them. By never keeping score in their so beloved soccer “games”, they have taught them that competition must also be strictly controlled so that everyone gets to play and that there are no winners and losers.
It’s been the ongoing lie since sometime in the 80′s and an outgrowth of that mentally soft attitude that the hippies fostered some years before. But they used to laugh at me when I asked them, “So, when your kid grows up, who’s gonna control who eats what? Who’s gonna level the playing field? Someone they pick as “leader”? Sounds like a dictatorship to me.”
As a millennial I say bring it. All this means is more jobs for me since they are lazy and are wasting their younger years not getting the experience that will bring them higher paying jobs later. When these guys get their act together in their 30′s – 40′s they are going to have massive gaps in their resume which won’t help at all. Less competition for me.
It’s all there in Aesop’s “The Grasshopper and the Ants” — poor liberal grasshoppers; soon they’ll be shivering at the door.
You’ll have the job that the government decides you should have. By the time these idiots are in their 40s, we’ll all be living under a socialist/communist dictatorship and all decisions will be made for us. You will be working so hard to prop up the government of social justice and equality for all that you will not even have time to reminisce about how good the good old days were when you used to live in a nice house, had some money in your pocket, were well-fed, and had the right to choose what you wanted in your life.
Read a history of the Soviet Union. Then you’ll know what’s in store for you.
“The big question is whether or not the Democrats will continue to endorse the sentiment and cause of OWS. It seems that Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren, who first endorsed the protestors, has just refused to sign an “Occupy Harvard OWS” statement. Clearly, Warren was worried that her previous endorsement might hurt her chances of winning against Scott Brown in the next election.”
I swear, I SWEAR, I will do anything in my power to make sure this woman, Elizabeth Warren, does not get elected. The woman is a communist turd, generally what you would find teaching in a place like Harvard. She already gave one speech in which she uses class warfare as the centerpiece of her campaign. You can see it here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcFDF87-SdQ
But now, after she had endorsed the OWS rioters, she now has to back down after the country has seen what communists and anarchists are really all about. These are her friends, the people she not only supports, but lionizes in her speeches. If you look at the video, everything “belongs to the people,” meaning that there is no private property (which is grand coming from a rich person like her) and that the factory owners, people who not only PAY a lot of taxes themselves, but also enabled a lot of people to HAVE jobs, don’t pay any personal taxes themselves. She is a liar, a fraud, and worse, a socialist turd, and that’s being kind. She represents the very essence of the philisophies we fought against during the Cold War. And, while we’re still here, where did the Soviet Union, the worker’s “paradise” go? Oh yes, IT COLLAPSED! So Elizabeth, if you hate this country so very much, Cuba is only 90 miles off the Florida coast. But that does mean you’ll have to give up your fine house and all of that dirty money you’ve collected over the years. She is nothing but another in a long line of hypocritical socialst dogs trying to destroy what we have now, which is the finest republic in the world.
I hope she loses, and badly too. And to those of you who are living in Massachusetts I say, even if you don’t like Scott Brown that much, he’s a hell of a lot better than what you would be getting under Elizabeth Warren. Do everything in your power to make sure this socialist does NOT get elected to Congress.
If the Tea Party evinced one instance of anti Semitism in the hundreds of thousands who have gathered and marched it would have been headline news for days. The big take away, the overarching theme in this entire debacle is there could no longer be any doubt in the mind of someone who can still think that the media in this country are a debauched corrupt filthy bunch who are the water carriers and the scribes of the left. They too are lice and flea infested, rotting and stinking from within and without. The “objective” media is a rotten corpse and maybe that lie will finally be a shovel ready project.
Look at their bios.
Many of these media stars were former left-wing protesters themselves. So of course they feel real sympathy for these new left-wing protesters of OWS.
No young people go into journalism anymore with the traditional ideal to report the facts to keep the people informed. Now they go into journalism with the goal of “speaking truth to power” (i.e. advancing a left-wing agenda).
The Tea Party is kosher. I give it my personal endorsement. The Occupy Wall Street movement is simply a rehearsal for the 2012 elections when Americas first Sultan will send out his shock troops to interfere and intimidate with the electoral process. The Occupy movement is strictly Hallal.
OWS, useful idiots and they don’t even know it.
Hey, has anyone noticed the new high tech riot gear some of the police departments have?
It is getting serious out there. Gearing up for 2012. Practice sets precedents, and hones techniques.
The Occupoopers are also a bunch of total ignoramuses who, despite their typical levels of “higher education”, lack an elementary knowledge of the matters that they are protesting about.
Astroturf, for the most part.
And epic fail.
How can they be anything other than ignoramuses? They’re all majoring in Women’s Studies, Gay/Lesbian/Transgender Studies, Black Studies, Chicano Studies, and on and on. In their minds, these courses of study are their tickets to the corner office.
There must be a lot of stupid parents around the country. I wouldn’t pay one nickel to finance a kid who had picked anything ending in “Studies” as his or her major.
They are not astro-turf. They are Soros-turf!
Speaking of the labor unions and the liberal Dems, it seems they’re doubling down in Wisconsin. I hope this will cost them some support in the long run too.
One of the dangers of the racism and fascism of the Left is that we tend to not see it as such; in America, such things either have a swastika or a hood and nobody else qualifies, except the automatic generic qualification white people have in general.
A great example is George Orwell’s “1984.” He wrote a novel about the dangers of such blind side perceptions and the world bogged itself down in the more literal interpretation of the novel as a warning against a Soviet style totalitarianism. “1984″ transcends such considerations and if America doesn’t start seeing the Left for what it is, a Marxist/socialist pedagogy centered around race and class, America will continue to reward failure and disdain success.
In terms of immigration and bankrupting itself throwing Federal money at foolish solutions, America is already far down a path of self-immolation.
True. It is interesting that it is normally the left that uses Orwell, like calling cops pigs (they would actually be dogs, pigs were all party members, the dogs were the enforcers). But in reality in both 1984 and animal farm orwell was warning about tyrannical LEFTIST governments.
I was a card-carrying Republican until our new Majority in congress, (1995) went along with Clinton’s prevarication on the ’70b surplus’. Of course we knew that money was the annual Social Security Revenue, (placed in the Federal Budget during the Johnson administration to hide the deficit). But instead of calling the Clinton’s lie and revealing the truth about there being no SS Trust Fund, and taking steps to remove SS Revenue from the Federal Budget, Gingrich and crew figured it more politically feasible to go along with the ruse and just take credit for the “surplus”.
Why you people go along with the politicization of your lives, hands firmly at each other’s throats, and going along with the phony Left/Right Dialectic promulgated by people who’s livelihood depends on perpetual cognitive dissonance.
The OWS is not a monolithic group. Of course the very few that are actually of the communist bent don’t know that the Bolshivek Revolution was funded by Wallstreet, and that Communism was aided and abetted by the US State Department, (See Anthony Sutton’s well documented books). Most do not understand that the very rich actually desire a two-tiered society Collecitvism. See G. Edward Griffin video on youtube “The Collectivist Conspiracy”. Take the blinders off and realize both Left and Right are Wrong.
“the Bolshivek Revolution was funded by Wallstreet”
Put the crack pipe down, and leave it down. You’ll thank us all later.
Indeed!
Why would Wall Street have any interest in the Russian revolution, or be on the side of the Communists? What would they gain?
The definition of right wing is not ‘whatever wealthy people believe and care about’, which is what I infer from your post. There are those with wealth who believe in free markets (mainly the smaller competitors trying to grow) and there are those who dominate their markets who seek to practice fascism–collusion with government, the purpose of which is to establish defacto monopoly, and to obtain preferential legislation, contracts and IRS code. Fascism is not a ‘right wing’ system. It’s not even left wing. It’s racketeering on a huge scale.
“Why you people go along with the politicization of your lives…”
Why? Because I am forced to by the useful idiots who want an ever-expanding government to regulate every aspect of our lives.
In an ideal world – no, scratch that, an ideal is not the issue. In an ADEQUATE world, one of the prerequisites to that adequacy is not having to think about government. It should be barely detectable. It should not be dictating how much water I can use to shower, how much window glass I can put on my house, or what “options” my car should have.
Unfortunately, due to people who think they know what’s best for everybody else, I am forced to pay attention to politics in order to safeguard my own interests as best I can. While there is some truth to the assertion that the two parties are identical, at least with Republicans, we can apply some braking power to the descent. There is some small chance of reversing the decline at some point. The Democrats want to hit that brick wall at full speed.
Clear and true response, alan.
Quick, duck! There’s a black helicopter hovering right over your pointy little tinfoil covered head!
And naturally, like Jews, all of Wall St. has each other’s phone numbers and agree on everything and keep their feathers numbered for emergencies too.
They don’t want to look into it.. because it goes beyond the JOOZ..
It’s all about power..
The big question is whether or not the Democrats will continue to endorse the sentiment and cause of OWS…
Ron, the big question is whether or not the Democrats are going to admit that they and their shadow party “leaders” invented the OWS, formed the blueprint, organized and trained the “handlers” and Cloward Piven’ed the entire thing from behind the scenes.
The big question is whether or not the propaganda machine was given advance notice, has been given direction on propagandizing the event, toning down the murder, rape, disease and defecations.
This circus side show of small c communists, large c communists, anarchists and the “dirty disaffected” combining with ACORN/SEIU…is not a “new” development. The solidarity already existed between the small c communists and their Workers Party henchmen.
This show trial for capitalism by The Lice That Roared…is NOT spontaneous. It has been called for in the angry voices at Cooper Union, the Midwest Academy and all the outlets of the Soros Shadow empire. They were sorely disappointed …first in Obama’s failure to pull the trigger when he had seized the industries vital to the free market and had both Houses in his hands. He hesitated and they were furious with him.
After the shellacking…they had two options. Slow cook capitalism…or double down on anarchy. They chose the latter.
The Lice That Roared are the artificial insemination of “street dissent” into the “kill capitalism” overthrow coup attempt. It is small c communism at work. The propaganda machine will NEVER disclose this to the people…because communism in America is the ONLY thing less popular than Congress.
And…the Stupid Party doesn’t have a single, solitary leader with enough sense to recognize it and articulate it to the people and point a finger of blame at the conspirators in the media.
The Lice That Roared are being portrayed as “average” citizens. Treason is afoot and we fiddle like Nero.
With all due respect, Mr. Radash, OWS is a dry run for what is coming near year. The people behind it are fully aware that Obama will not be reelected unless they pull out the stops. If he was hovering around fifty percent they figure they could steal a state or two and put him over the top. But, despite the best efforts of lefty polling orgs to pump up his numbers, Obama real numbers are at or below forty percent.
So, having learned the lessons of what went right or wrong this year, OWS types will take to the streets again next year, perhaps in even bigger numbers, with the expectation of much better results. The last thing their dem backers want is for too many people to be so angry at Obama by Election Day that a lot of straight ticket voting takes place. Still, though, at its core a lot of OWS is about saving Obama because the far left sees him as their last best chance.
Sorry about misspelling your name, Mr. Radosh.
You can apologize for the misspelling of Radosh’s name, but it happens all the time, so don’t feel bad. It is a made up name, not his real name.
The question is, Have the American’s of Jewish faith seen the path we are on with the democrats?
OWS tries to block people from working. Now you know they are mainstream Dems. Who else puts sand in the gears every chance they get.
THE #30,000
MSN’s Ed Schultz, on last night’s Dead Head Show, was glorying in yesterday’s anniversary protests because of the numbers that showed up: 30,000 according to police estimates. Ed (and his giddy guests) was so impressed by this that he declared the day a smashing success, and then proceeded to rub it in the face of Bill O’Reilly and the Right who have declared the movement on its death bed.
Now that was 30,000 bodies in a city of how many, 8 million? That’s less than .5% of the total population. Not exactly what I would call a massively mass movement. In Cairo at Tahrir Square, for example, 50,000 people gathered on January 25th for the first day of protests. By day 7 the crowd had swelled to 100,000 strong. And at its height on February 11th (16 days after the protests began) Tahrir Square had 300,000 protesters, ten times the number that gathered on day 60 in New York yesterday. WOW! I’M BLOWN AWAY ED! WHAT IMPRESSIVE NUMBERS! OWS ROCKS!
Click my name and read my piece: 60 Daze Of OWS Rage And Wall Street Stays Open For Business
I believe I can safely say that 50% of this 30k was people out for the day…just wanting to see and be seen….People watching is one of my most fun,.. What can I call it, pleasurable past-times….I look forward to the day that i can go to a OWS rally just to see what real maggets do when they are allowed to infest the carcass, of a dead [dem.] party….
Quote of the Day:
“Your message gets lost when you piss people off.”
Randy Zelin – Defense Attorney – to OWS group.
Before anyone jerks their knees…
Why is the ultra conservative Pajamas Media suddenly quoting the liberal progressive ADL …as a legitimate and valid source?
They’ve …lied about other issues and spun more. They’ve harmed the right on many and seveal occasions, from religion to The Second Amendment and more. Now, unexpectedly, they’re a valid resource for news and opinion???
Has everyone gone insane?
I think you’re missing the point. ADL has a history of this kind of thing – being reluctant to acknowledge antisemitism of the urban left because they’re too busy looking for white supremacists in the back woods of Idaho. One again, they’re late to the pogrom.
If the trade unions (as opposed to the government unions) haven’t figured out who their friends and enemies are after the Keystone pipeline decision, they deserve the oblivion that awaits them.
And don’t forget delaying the shale oil leases. Obama for prosperity! His own.
Anti-Semitism is the Canary in the coal mine. Once you see it, you know somewhere down the line, you’re next.
Still, We The People vs. We The Elite People in Washington DC. Period.
This is a desperate attempt at ‘circling the wagons’ by Washington DC’s We The Elite People. Check out Wolf Blitzer on CNN, frothing at the mouth. Countless interviews with POLITICO’s reporters, Ariana Huffington’s pointless interviews (she is a close associate to George Soros’ Tides Foundation) et al.
Susana Malveux(CNN) on 11/17/11, trotted out Van Jones to explain his “top down/bottom up and inside out” utterances about OWS (‘bottom up’ part of his assertions)and how it was an uprising by the disenfranchised americans around the world (guess he was thinking about our troops overseas).
So, now there are 1) communists, 2) socialists, 3) national socialists, and 4) antisemites, to name the main players. Why, all we’re missing are the Fascists.
Then, the movement begun in the 1900′s by Cloward-Piven (giving rise to both conscientious objectors and Progessives), flourishing in the 30′s, solidifyng in the 60′s and completely well organized in 2011, comes into fruition.
Francis Fox Piven should feel proud of her attempts at replacing a capitalist economy with a dysfunctional command (Keynesian) economy, amply tried in every country on the face of the earth, with absolutely predictable results: EuroZone(PIIGS), Soviet Union, Cuba, Latin America, Eastern bloc countries, Canada, Iceland, Greenland, Norway to name a few.
OWS complains their convoluted message isn’t getting out. Sure, that’s because their convoluted message is socialist/communist in nature (command economy). America is a free market system, capitalist economy. Brick wall…ne’er the twain shall meet.
No matter how much ‘circling of the wagons’ We The Elite People of Washington DC attempt, this fundamental flaw (command economy vs. capitalist economy) will always be their albatross. Vote massively this 2012 election because massive fraud is all around We The People. God Bless America.
The left has always aligned with democrats…In reference to anti-war protests during Vietnam…the left (with the help of people like John Kerry) referred to Vietnam as “Mr. Nixon’s War”….never mind the 8 years of JFK and Lyndon Johnson who built this war through their master architect, Robert McNamara…When Nixon was elected, the preceeding years disappeared into a vacuum of history.
Now OWS has arrived. Make no mistake about it…it has always been an anti-Republican affair. Like Vietnam and John Kerry, OWS has Richard Trumpka. The left and democrats are pointing their fingers at Republicans. The Mother-of-All Occupy events will be seen at the Republican National Convention. That will be the culmination of this staged, orchestrated anti-Republican rant. Between now and then…the chanting, the demonstrating, etc…will continue to gravitate towards Republican campaign events…We are already seeing that happen. Who is behind it?
He led SEIU in 2008….now he leads OWS (who is being trained by SEIU)…Barrack Hussein Obama….mmmmm, mmmmmm, mmmmmm………
Fractured
Rage, Rage against the dying of the light.
Alas poor Yorick! The Truth is dead
And in her stead
A Greek chorus repeating, repeating
The oldest MYTHS.
Covet a blood-soaked cloak of brothers who already paid
The highest ransom.
Aspiring martyr cries WOE, you OWE, ME! ME! ME!.
A MEME, creation of failed dreams, legacy of failed & fractured past
Upside down, backwards, inside-out, theatre of absurdities
Grotesque plastic imitation, replace reality &
Usurp the covenant of the righteous, poison the innocents,
Preach them, Teach them, Use them
Accuse, Deny, Cry,
Try to buy judgment with a LIE.
………………………………………
the person I used to buy POT from, who still makes his money capitalistically selling it, wife makes her money from govt (teacher in union of course) who campaigned for Obummer, Progressive JEWS – upper middle class income- are promoting and going to #OWS of course- stuck in the 60′s <—- pot addled brains, nostaligia for youth, siding with the enemy of their own… very sad for me to see.
On thing I’ve concluded after watching weeks of OWS demonstrators on TV: No woman over age 30 should be allowed to wear bib overalls – unless she lives on a farm.
Glenn Reynolds had a good line, that the labor unions cant find competent goons nowdays. The dems have the same problem with OWS. Their shock troops are undisciplined spoiled children, instead of disciplined shock troops, and their anarchist antics are alienating ordinary voters, instead of energizing the dem base, and raising their issues, as originally intended. And the media coverup of OWS excesses is merely further discrediting the lefts best ally, the MSM, and enhancing the credibility of Fox and conservative blogs, who are reporting the truth.
They probably will try to deploy these shock troops again for the election, to both scare the population into thinking that they must do something to satisfy and placate these people, and to break up conservative political meetings. But I think it will backfire, the conservatives will be energized rather than intimidated, and independents will be repelled by the violence and anarchy, and blame the people, dems, who deployed and supported them. That is my hope anyway, but if that does not happen, and we let these leftist goons intimidate us, then freedom will end.
Interestingly if the dems had real brains, their demonstrators would use the lawful non-violent tactics of MLK, like the Tea Party does, which might actually win a few hearts and minds. Fortunately most dems, especially the dem shock troops, do NOT have brains, or disclipline, and continue to act like lawless spoiled children.
P493 – Now that we have locked in on you and your very questionable intelligence – be advised that Communists – Socialist – Liberals – Progressives and chosen Democrats will all be eligible for participation in the Great American Coup! It will be more like a ‘fox and hounds ‘ caper across the countryside – when you hear the baying the dogs – that is your clue to run – ’good luck’!

Read the following from Dr. Henry Makow, PhD, at http://www.henrymakow.com/robert_edmondson_testified_aga.html about Robert Edmondson’s collection of research bulletins that revealed the Jewish-located world conspiracy to control global banking interests. His book, “I Testify Against the Jews” is available from Amazon.
“Our Zionist mind controllers have succeeded in eliminating almost all record of Robert Edmondson. Until today, there was no reference to him (or photo) on the Internet. Yet he was thrown into jail in 1936 and again in 1942 for producing hundreds of bulletins alerting his fellow Americans to an International conspiracy financed by the central bankers and consisting largely of Communist Jews and Freemasons. This conspiracy has grown into the New World Order.
A measure of subversion is when a nation’s defenders are defamed and forgotten, while its traitors are rewarded and honored. Other 1930′s patriots tarred as “anti-Semites” include Charles Lindbergh. Henry Ford, Charles Coughlin, Elizabeth Dillling, William Pelley, Louis McFadden and Huey Long.
Their fate proves that despite what Americans think, the US is a colony of the London-based Masonic Jewish central banking cartel and its leaders are traitors. Americans haven’t been “free” for a very long time.
In 1936, Edmondson was charged with ‘libeling the Jewish people.’ In his defense, he wrote, ‘I am not against Jews because of their religion, as a race, a people or as individuals, but because Jewish leadership [i.e. the bankers] is actively anti-American, is attempting to jettison the American political philosophy and take over the Country, and that I would continue to be anti-Jewish until Jewry repudiated such subversion. Were the offender any other than the Jewish minority, my attitude would be precisely the same. This problem is the biggest and most acute thing in the world today….
‘Knowing that pitiless publicity is the only cure for public evils, in 1934 I started on a campaign to expose Jewish Anti-Americanism and Talmudic Communism which has been called the ‘Code of Hell’: a “Rabbi Racket” that victimizes its own followers; an international “Satanic System” subverting France, Britain, Germany and Russia, causing the present depression and moving to take over the United States through the Jewish Radical administration [of FDR.]‘ (p.69)
Faced with exposure, organized Jewry backed down. Edmondson subpoenaed ‘Princes of Jewry’ Bernard Buruch, Henry Morganthau, Rabbi Wise, Samuel Untermeyer, Mayor LaGuardia, James P. Warburg, Walter Lippmann and Justice Samuel Rosenman. Whereupon the American Jewish Committee petitioned the court NOT to hear the case because the indictment violated the free speech guarantee of the Constitution.
‘Jews are afraid of the truth,’ Edmondson wrote. ‘They know that a few grains of it will blow the lid off when publicized.’ (137)
