Money prioritized over everything else - Italian Trash Mafia

A DIRTY BUSINESS

The mafia runs the garbage business in most places around the world. You can say it's a dirty business.. Here the concern for profit for mafia's billions of dollars in the trash business gets priority over quality of life to the point of harming health. Yet business goes on as usual. Protests happen, but unfortunately, not enough people support the cause.

Occupy Wall Street - The next big step

Ah ha! Someone said it! Shut down the stock exchange! I've been saying it all along (see my Oct 29th comment)! Check out the end of this video:


Btw, that was really dumb of the establishment to bring attention to the #Occupiers. They set abuzz the hornets nest which brought the limelight back upon the protesters. Coverage of the Occupy protests was dying down as there was no new news to report. And yes this was coordinated by someone high up (most likely the Chamber of Commerce) as all the Occupy camps got raided at about the same time, in the same manner, using the same lame excuses such as the camp was dirty, it was health hazard, and that it stood as as being unsafe in terms of crime and violence. What doesn't make sense to me is why they raided, ransacked, and confiscated all the material possessions at the camp knowing they would allow the protesters to return and resettle in the same place. Seems like an espionage mission to get information such as members, organizations, and contacts that are involved and perhaps to sniff out upcoming plans.

So back to the idea of blockading (don't they blockade in wars?) the stock market with 100,000s of people surrounding the buildings and underground corridors so that employees can't get to work and business as usual can't continue... This would be true crowd sourcing! How would this work? Let's get into the hypothetical scenario much deeper...

The blockade would, of course, have to happen on a weekday. People would have to take the day off and potentially be arrested. The NYSE opens at 9:30am. Workers probably show up long before that. The disruption would start when critical NYSE employees are delayed or cannot show up to work.

If we look at the metal barricades in Michael Moore's fantastic video, they can be turned around and used in the protesters' favor by being instrumental in a blockade and even block the authorities in! People can begin forming the blockade outside the police lines as they surround the neighboring blocks and not all any employees in.

And from today.. A fantastic interview on Democracy Now! by Arundhati Roy. She covers both #OWS and the genocide in India, and the realization that both are connected because they are the result of the same criminal cabal. /br>
Somewhere there is a recording or video of Arundhati Roy's speech to Occupy Wall Street. I hope I run into it shortly as I am anxious to hear it!

#OccupyBrooklynBridge

The day the public is in favor of blocking all avenues of bankers getting to work in NY will be the day of victory and jubilation. It will mark the beginning of a new era, Til then people will get beaten, harassed, jailed, spied on, and subjected.

Basmati Revolution?

THE POLICE ARE THERE TO PROTECT YOU
THE POLICE ARE THERE TO SERVE YOU

LOL! Ya right! The police are there to protect the corrupt class.

India is having it's own little revolt-lite against corruption. Lots of people are showing up in the streets to demand reform. The catalyst? Anna Hazare, who is on his 6th+ day of a hunger strike. The demand is that legislation called the Jan Lokpal Bill be passed in order to curb corruption.

A Common Enemy - Self Interest

Ahhhh!! Protests in the streets of Israel... High prices creating misery and dispair for everyone. But people only pop out into the streets when they're affected. Forget about ideals, morals, and justice for other people.

There is a common enemy. It's class warfare. The haves vs the have nots. Power vs the powerless. The policymakers vs he policy supporters. The enemy is same for everyone. Yet what stands in the way everywhere? That's right. Self interest. Let things go into the crapper. Then wonder what happened? All along people have been warning of events that are now taking place. They are often ignored and ridiculed. Then the party drink bowl runs low. People come out into the streets to demand more.

High real estate prices. High food prices. PROTEST! It's all simple economics. Your leaders and elites run an apartheid program. People benefit off apartheid. That's something to talk about later (euphemism to not talk about it at all). It's all too inconvenient. It's ll too lobotomatic.

High food prices brought about the Arab Spring. Now it's Israel's turn. It's all about human rights and dignity after all. Everyone wants it and needs it.

A Joyous Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day!

A HOLIDAY THAT ISN'T

Shouldn't Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's birthday be a national holiday celebrated throughout the nation, private and government? Why is it the mass public does not get a day off on his birthday? Does the corporatocracy not want celebrated someone who represent values that are humanitarian and not corporate?

This world is upside down, inside out!

Honduras: Validating a Coup thru an Election

THE OKIE DOKIE - SNEAKING IN A PRESIDENTE


Resist now or it'll be much harder to resist later! 90% of the people of Honduras live in poverty and 63% live in abject poverty. 33% of the people show up for the election. That's about right.. About a third of the population leeches off the rest of society through top down (trickle down) economics.

You can thank the School of the Americas. Why go all the way to the Middle East to look for terrorists?

Palestinians topple part of the Separation Wall on 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall 11-06-2009

ISRAEL, TEAR DOWN THAT WALL!

Viva la Résistance!

20 years to the date of the fall of the Berlin wall, Palestinian demonstrators toppled part of the 8 meters tall concrete wall in Nilin, Palestine.

"The 300 demonstrators managed to topple a part of the eight meters tall concrete wall that cuts through the village's land. The concrete wall in Ni'ilin - five to eight meters (15 to 25 feet) in high has only recently been laid on the path of the wall cutting through Ni'ilin's lands, in addition to the already existing electronic barrier and razor-wire.

Since the Wall was built to allow more land to annexed to the nearby settlements rather than in a militarily strategic manner, demonstrators have been able to repeatedly dismantle parts of the electronic fence and razor-wire surrounding it. The section of the Wall in Nilin is the only place along the route of the barrier where a concrete wall has been erected in an attempt to deal with the civic, unarmed campaign waged by the village in protest of the massive land theft that will enable the expansion of the illegal settlements of Modi'in Il'it and Hasmonaim.

Since Israel began its construction in the year 2002, This is the first time demonstrators succeed in toppling a part of Israel's barrier which is a concrete wall. One of the demonstrators, Moheeb Khawaja, said during the protest: "Twenty years ago no one had thought the monster that divided Berlin into two could be brought down, but in only two days in November, it did. Today we have proven that this can also be done here and now. It is our land beyond this wall, and we will not give up on it. We will win for a simple reason - justice is on our side."

Michael Moore visits NY

Michael Moore, along with unions, march to New York to demand arrest of the wall street executives. The people should be chanting "arrest them now" instead of trying to claw back the money. We won't get the money back. It's not just Wall Street's greed that's gotta go, it's everybody's.

Even though Michael Moore doesn't hit the nail on the head, he's got a good heart.

People in western India want clean energy!

Just say NO to nonrenewable resource power generation! The farmers want solar, wind, and geothermal. The politicians and businessmen want quick bucks from coal power generation. Of course, coal will destroy the livelihoods anf farmlands of thousands and thousands of farmers. But who cares? It'll create a handful of high paying jobs for those with college degrees. Of course the CEOs and polliticians won't live downstream of a coal plant.
