Newt Gingrich Is Suspiciously Declared South Carolina GOP Primary Winner With Only 2% Of Precincts Reporting And Showing Him Trailing Romney By 8%

CNN announced that Newt Gingrich has won the South Carolina GOP primary with only 2% of the official votes being reported. Of the 2% of the official votes Gingrich was trailing Romney capturing 32% of the vote versus Romney’s 40% of the official vote.

The math? Who knows? Apparently the projection is being based off CNN exit polls. But prior to the first actual votes being reported CNN said they would not declare a winner until actual votes came into to verify their independent exit polling. Now with 2% of the vote in, the actual votes don’t confirm their exit polling but they are declaring a winner anyway.

As CNN reported earlier, these caucuses are not regulated by law, instead the GOP parties in each state reported the vote totals how they see fit and there are no laws to make sure everything is above par or even to demand a recount.

This clip shows how the Iowa results were over reported to give Romney 20 extra votes in one county alone, which were more than enough to give him the win since he officially one by only 8 votes.

Of course Iowa has the suspicious 8 counties whose votes still have not been reported.

Occupy Wall Street protestors are now being listed as a Domestic Terrorist Group being disseminated on a list that includes Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations

Alexander Higgins
December 6, 2011

As I previously reported, the US Army is being mobilized to crush Occupy Wall Street and the recent passage of the National Defense Authorization Act opens the door for the military to arrest and detain American citizens indefinitely without trial.

US Army Preparing To Crush #OccupyWallStreet

An analyst informs that the US has its army on standby against the Occupy and student movement as the economic situation in America deteriorates day by day.

As previously reported, the US has began a deployment of 20,000 troops in the US to deal with civil unrest in the even of a catastrophic even such as a massive large scale terror attacks or economic collapse .

[...]

Then came news that our beloved Senate has passed SR 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act Bill.

As I have previously reported, the final reconciled version of the bill may one day prove to be the declaration of World War 3.

Furthermore, the bill will allow the military to treat American Citizens – such as Occupy Wall Street protestors – as terrorists by labeling them as threats to national security, and detain them indefinitely in military prisons.

[...]

Read The Rest…

We now have our first confirmation that Occupy Wall Street is being labeled as a Domestic Terrorist Threat and protestors now being labeled as possible domestic terrorists. Don’t hesitate to think for a single second that agencies across the entire US agencies haven’t already done the same exact thing.

Perhaps more alarming is the photo of the original police document that has secretly handed “trusted” anti-terrorism partners has been removed from twitter.

Here is a copy.

Occupy Wall Street Listed As Domestic Terror Group

The Independent Reports:

Police in City see occupiers as ‘terror’ risk

The City of London Police force was facing criticism last night after including the Occupy London demonstration in a letter warning businesses about potential terrorist threats.

The letter, a “Terrorism/Extremism Update”, lists al-Qa’ida, the Colombian dissidents Farc, and Belarusian terrorists who bombed the Minsk underground. It also lists Occupy London under the heading “Domestic”.

It states: “It is likely that activists aspire to identify other locations to occupy, especially those they identify with capitalism. City of London Police has received a number of hostile reconnaissance reports concerning individuals who would fit the anti-capitalist profile. All are asked to be vigilant regarding suspected reconnaissance, particularly around empty buildings.”

An Occupy London spokesman said: “Activism is not a crime and the desire to participate in democratic decision-making should not be a cause for concern for the police in any free society.

“An institution that confuses active citizens with criminals and equates al-Qa’ida with efforts to reimagine the city is an institution in danger of losing its way.”

Pentagon Deploying 20,000 Troops Within The United States To Prepare For Civil Unrest In Event Of Economic Collapse

The pentagon has announced plans to deploy a 20,000 strong internal troop force within the united states over the next two years civil unrest in the even of a catastrophic even such as a massive large scale terror attacks or economic collapse — thus, dovetailing into the current troop and equipment movements reported around the country reported by truckers and many more sightings by others.

This has raised fears that the United States is moving ever closer to a total militarized police state, and some wonder if people will become desensitized to the implementation of martial law if once they become conditioned to seeing the military roaming the American streets on a daily basis. Others suggest the announcement of the troop deployment is part of some unknown larger plan being implement and due to the coincidental timing with the now apparently related pre-positioning of troops equipment and (NOTAM) No-Fly Zones in the Continental United States (CONUS).

Other speculation this may correlate with the debt ceiling talks which now seem to haven fallen apart and entered into the point of no return or if the announcement is related to recently reported nuclear threats from reactors in danger within the US.

The Russia today video attached below covers the many of the questions fears and shows a wide range of reactions from U.S. citizens about the Pentagon’s announcement of stationing 20,000 troops within the United States.

Then came news that our beloved Senate has passed SR 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act Bill.

As I have previously reported, the final reconciled version of the bill  may one day prove to be the declaration of World War 3.

Congress To Vote On Declaration Of World War 3 — An Endless War With No Borders, No Clear Enemies

The United States Congress is set to vote on legislation that authorizes the official start of World War 3.

The legislation authorizes the President of the United States to take unilateral military action against all nations, organizations, and persons, both domestically and abroad, who are alleged to be currently or who have in the past supported or engaged in hostilities or who have provided aid in support of hostilities against the United States or any of its coalition allies.

The legislation removes the requirement of congressional approval for the use of military force and instead gives the President totalitarian dictatorial authority to engage in any and all military actions for an indefinite period of time.

It even gives the President the authority to launch attacks against American Citizens inside the United States with no congressional oversight whatsoever.

Just to recap, because that was a mouthful:

• Endless War – The war will continue until all hostilities are terminated, which will never happen.
• No Borders – The president will have the full authority to launch military strikes against any country, organization or person, including against U.S citizens on U.S soil.
• Unilateral Military Action – Full authority to invade any nation at any time with no congressional approval required.
• No Clearly Defined Enemy – The US can declare or allege anyone a terrorist or allege they are or have been supporting “hostilities” against the US and attack at will.
• Authorization To Invade Several Countries – The president would have full authority to invade Iran, Syria, North Korea, along with several other nations in Africa and the Middle East and even Russia and China under the legislation all of which are “know” to have supported and aided hostilities against the United States.

Read The Rest…

Furthermore, the bill will allow the military to treat American Citizens – such as Occupy Wall Street protestors – as terrorists by labeling them as threats to national security, and detain them indefinitely in military prisons.

Please take action to stop the passage of S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, because if this passes it will be mean that everyone who is occupying could be arrested and held with out charges indefinitely.

S.1867 represents a very dangerous tipping point. We need to take action NOW!

Senators Demand the Military Lock Up of American Citizens in a “Battlefield” They Define as Being Right Outside Your Window

UPDATE III: The Senate rejected the Udall amendment 38-60 [meaning the Military can now lock up American Citizens and hold them indefinitely without trial or charge]

---

While nearly all Americans head to family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving, the Senate is gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans. The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself.

Senators need to hear from you, on whether you think your front yard is part of a “battlefield” and if any president can send the military anywhere in the world to imprison civilians without charge or trial.

The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president—and every future president — the power to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. Even Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) raised his concerns about the NDAA detention provisions during last night’s Republican debate. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself.

The worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial provision is in S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which will be on the Senate floor on Monday. The bill was drafted in secret by Sens. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) and passed in a closed-door committee meeting, without even a single hearing.

I know it sounds incredible. New powers to use the military worldwide, even within the United States? Hasn’t anyone told the Senate that Osama bin Laden is dead, that the president is pulling all of the combat troops out of Iraq and trying to figure out how to get combat troops out of Afghanistan too? And American citizens and people picked up on American or Canadian or British streets being sent to military prisons indefinitely without even being charged with a crime. Really? Does anyone think this is a good idea? And why now?

The answer on why now is nothing more than election season politics. The White House, the Secretary of Defense, and the Attorney General have all said that the indefinite detention provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act are harmful and counterproductive. The White House has even threatened a veto. But Senate politics has propelled this bad legislation to the Senate floor.

But there is a way to stop this dangerous legislation. Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) is offering the Udall Amendment that will delete the harmful provisions and replace them with a requirement for an orderly Congressional review of detention power. The Udall Amendment will make sure that the bill matches up with American values.

In support of this harmful bill, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) explained that the bill will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield” and people can be imprisoned without charge or trial “American citizen or not.” Another supporter, Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) also declared that the bill is needed because “America is part of the battlefield.”

The solution is the Udall Amendment; a way for the Senate to say no to indefinite detention without charge or trial anywhere in the world where any president decides to use the military. Instead of simply going along with a bill that was drafted in secret and is being jammed through the Senate, the Udall Amendmentdeletes the provisions and sets up an orderly review of detention power. It tries to take the politics out and put American values back in.

In response to proponents of the indefinite detention legislation who contend that the bill “applies to American citizens and designates the world as the battlefield,” and that the “heart of the issue is whether or not the United States is part of the battlefield,” Sen. Udall disagrees, and says that we can win this fightwithout worldwide war and worldwide indefinite detention.

The senators pushing the indefinite detention proposal have made their goals very clear that they want an okay for a worldwide military battlefield, that even extends to your hometown. That is an extreme position that will forever change our country.

Now is the time to stop this bad idea. Please urge your senators to vote YES on the Udall Amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act.

UPDATE I: Don’t be confused by anyone claiming that the indefinite detention legislation does not apply to American citizens. It does. There is an exemption for American citizens from the mandatory detention requirement (section 1032 of the bill), but no exemption for American citizens from the authorization to use the military to indefinitely detain people without charge or trial (section 1031 of the bill). So, the result is that, under the bill, the military has the power to indefinitely imprison American citizens, but it does not have to use its power unless ordered to do so.

But you don’t have to believe us. Instead, read what one of the bill’s sponsors,Sen. Lindsey Graham said about it on the Senate floor: “1031, the statement of authority to detain, does apply to American citizens and it designates the world as the battlefield, including the homeland.”

There you have it — indefinite military detention of American citizens without charge or trial. And the Senate is likely to vote on it Monday or Tuesday.

UPDATE II: The debate on NDAA has begun. Your Senator needs to hear from you RIGHT NOW! >>

If you don’t think our government will charge someone as an enemy combatant outside of an actual warzone, the Feds have already charged a man as an enemy combatant supporting terrorism just for uploading a video to Youtube.

If you think it is a far stretch that Occupy Wall Street protestors could or would ever be treated as terrorists – think again. In fact, they are already being listed as a terrorist group along side with Al-Qaeda on documents being disseminated to “trusted” anti-terrorism partners.

It Begins… #OccupyWallStreet Labeled As Terrorist Group Along With Al-Qaeda

Occupy Wall Street protestors are now being listed as a Domestic Terrorist Group being disseminated on a list that includes Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations

Be it civil unrest due to the super committee budget cuts or the a rapidly deteriorating economy that could become a depression greater than the Great Depression all signs indicate the government is preparing the US military for all out civil unrest. Be it the European Debt Crisis, the complete collapse of the US economy due to cancerous corporate greet and parasitic Wall Street Banks,  Peak Oil or the truth finally being revealed about the true extent of the Fukushima nuclear meltdown on thing is clear – the Army is being being mobilized for a domestic deployment on US soil against US citizen.

In fact, there has breaking news today from Political Analyst Rodney Shakespeare, who says the Army is now being put on standby to be mobilized against Occupy Wall Street protestors at any moment.

Rodney Shakespeare: The authorities though are getting nervous and even vicious toward the protesters. The army is being readied to move in. A law will allow the US government to disappear anybody – there’s fascism for you. They may censor the internet; and there are demands for war to hide the true situation.

And the reason for all this is in fact the overall economic situation. If you start with Europe where the Euro could be weeks even days away from collapse, that could result with the sovereign debt of Europe being defaulted. That will mean billions even trillion of payments by the USA banks, which hold the derivatives or the insurance. But they don’t have the money to pay.

Recently the Bank of America moved 70 trillion – that’s 70 trillion dollars worth of derivatives to a Bank of America commercial holding company, which is government insured. Now, 70 trillion is larger than the global economy.

So if you put it all together the USA is getting very very nervous that the whole thing is about to blow up and of course at that point the protests and demonstrations in the USA will multiply by a factor of perhaps three or five and they are getting ready to go in with a fascist suppression.

The protesters are actually representing not just deep unease, but the nasty reality of 20 percent unemployment overall with a 40 percent unemployment amongst youth groups, blacks and Hispanics – As for the homelessness, it is hidden. Homelessness is now out in the woodlands and scrublands away from general perception, but it is rising very fast as is also the number of people who are on food stamps.

So it is not just a question of the courage of the protesters – and they are being brave – it’s that the situation is deteriorating very rapidly. And the authorities can see that not only the nitty gritty detail of the population is getting worse, but they can see that the overall banking collapse is getting worse. So one way or another the authorities are showing signs of vicious as a prelude to what will be panic. And I’m afraid with panic will come irresponsible violence.

A BBC investigative reports top government officials are exploiting the last neuroscience research to manipulate the masses.

This is a shocking report from the BBC on how politicians and their advisers are using the latest advances in neuroscience to manipulate how the masses think. Of course, the article is full of doublespeak but just listen to the FULL BBC radio program below explaining this article.

Governments Exploiting Neuroscience To Manipulate The Sheep

Exploiting neuroscience lessons to shape policy

By Matthew Taylor Presenter, Brain Culture, BBC Radio 4

Lord Gould believed it was important to understand the public’s emotional concerns about Labour

Politicians and their advisers are exploiting advances in neuroscience in order to better understand the public, and how they make decisions.

From deciding what to buy in shops, to which candidate to vote for on election day, our decisions are based as much on emotional impulse as rational calculation.

It is a point appreciated by the philosopher David Hume when, in the early part of the 18th Century, he wrote, “Reason is, and ought only to be, the slave of passion”.

But what is changing now, as a result of the developing science of brains and behavior, is the precision with which those who seek to speak directly to our impulses can operate.

Fortunately, the new science is also available to the public.

Emotional politics

By understanding our cognitive shortcuts and vulnerabilities, perhaps we can be better at resisting some of messages being pumped out at us and also find paths to greater well being.

The death of Philip Gould – one of the architects of New Labor and the party’s most influential adviser over two decades – is a reminder that the art of political persuasion is not all about cynical manipulation.

Following Labor’s heavy defeat in 1992, Philip Gould knew it was critical to understand not just the public’s rational and explicit concerns about Labor but the deeper emotional barriers.

Now political advisers facing similar questions are starting to draw on the results of brain scanning.

Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard meditated for 10,000 hours and was dubbed the happiest man on earth

I spoke to one agency which successfully advised a mayoral candidate in South America.

By measuring brain responses, the agency had been able to brief the politician about his real emotional strengths and weaknesses – regardless of what people said in focus groups.

It is perhaps unsurprising that the agency was unwilling to disclose the name of the politician.

Voters might react badly to the idea that a campaign had been designed to appeal to their instincts rather than their reason.

But political advisers are only playing catch-up with the commercial world. In the last decade, so-called “neuro-marketing” has moved from the margins to the mainstream in the world of advertising.

The ‘nudge’

Professor Gemma Calvert, one of the most influential experts of neuro-marketing, argues that while advertisers have always appealed to our emotions, the big difference now is that scanning enables the marketers literally to see the brain’s automatic response.

Some people may still be skeptical; we want to believe our choices are rational. But a famous study by Professor Read Montague provides powerful confirmation of the neuro-marketers’ claims.

By observing activity in the brain and comparing it with people’s stated preferences, Montague claims to have shown that our preferences for Coke or Pepsi are much more to do with marketing than taste.

Montague is among those who think brain science will have a profound impact on culture and society.

After all, it is not just commerce that is using the science.

The Cabinet Office has a team which uses an understanding of automatic cognitive processes to encourage – or “nudge” – us to make what government believes are wider and more pro-social choices.

If the science can be used by those seeking to shape our choices, can it also be used to help us keep control? Another intriguing study by Professor Montague suggests it might.

Exploring the way commercial sponsorship – for example of an art exhibition – can make us feel more warmly inclined towards a product, Montague found one group of subjects was systematically more able to resist this appeal.

It was those who had undertaken some form of mindfulness training. Mindfulness is a fast growing hobby in the UK right now. It is a form of non-spiritual meditation but it is also based on science.

‘Knowledge arms race’

Studies of taxi drivers have found that doing ‘the Knowledge‘ gives them an enlarged hippocampus, a part of the brain associated with “filed” memories.

Just one more reason to get out to your local Occupy Wall Street protest and stand up against the systematically corrupt government America has become. The time to act is now. It is already to late. What are you waiting for? Fascist thugs storming your house, killing your family, and dragging you off to some secret prison where you will be held indefinitely without trial and tortured?

Big Brother Is Watching You - Surveillance Is Security

The FBI is secretly and deliberately collecting information about innocent Americans and illegally recording speech, beliefs, and First Amendment-protected activities.

ACLU

The FBI, in true Big Brother fashion, is secretly and deliberately collecting information about innocent Americans for its intelligence files, and illegally recording information about their speech, beliefs, and First Amendment-protected activities. This is bad enough. But to make it worse, the FBI is doing this intelligence collection through community outreach programs — programs that are supposed to build trust and rapport with the public — without telling community groups or their members what it is doing.

The proof is in the FBI’s own documents. Today, the ACLU issued our latest Eye on the FBI Alert as part of our Mapping the FBI campaign. The alert highlights FBI documents from San Francisco and Sacramento showing that the FBI is systematically storing in intelligence files memos containing the names, identifying information, and opinions of people who attend FBI outreach programs; the expressive activities of community groups; the names and positions of group leaders; and the racial, ethnic, and national origin of group members. A few examples:

• After a 2008 meeting with a Pakistani community group, an FBI agent recorded the group leaders’ names and identified them with the First Amendment-protected activities of the group — and sent this information to an intelligence file.
• After attending a Ramadan Iftar dinner in 2008, an agent collected and documented individuals’ contact info and their 1st Amendment-protected opinions and associations, and “disseminated” the information “outside the FBI,” presumably to other law enforcement or intelligence agencies.

Big Brother has been very busy. But, he has also been very foolish. By using community outreach programs to gather intelligence, the FBI is jeopardizing the trust and rapport with community groups and the public that is essential to effective law enforcement in a democratic society.

The FBI records described above and others also violate the Privacy Act, which prohibits the government from compiling records about individuals’ First Amendment-protected activities in federal databases, absent special circumstances that don’t exist here.

These protections exist for good reason. The Privacy Act was passed in1974 in response to revelations that the FBI was engaged in pervasive and abusive data collection about people involved in peaceful civil rights and anti-war groups simply because of what they thought and believed, or the people with whom they associated. The FBI records we’ve identified open the door to this happening again. And Congress also expressly passed the Privacy Act to prevent government records about people that are obtained for one purpose from being used or made available for another without their consent. Yet, this is exactly what the FBI is doing now.

It’s time for Big Brother to come clean. We are calling on the FBI to stop using community outreach to gather intelligence and to be honest with community organizations about the information it gathers during outreach meetings. It should also purge all illegally collected information. And the Department of Justice Inspector General should investigate Privacy Act violations within the FBI’s San Francisco and Sacramento Divisions, and initiate a broader audit of FBI practices nationwide.

You can join our call by asking the FBI to stop wasting precious resources by investigating innocent Americans.

Occupy Montreal Protestors consider legal action against police for civil rights violations after police branded them with invisible UV ink to track them.

Occupy Wall Street protestors participating in the movement at Occupy Montreal consider legal action against the police for civil rights violations after being branded with invisible ink that allows police to identify and track them.

This story makes you wonder what methods police at other occupations may have used to “brand” and “track” protestors. Perhaps they are preparing for a massive sweep to take out all of the dirty hippie Marxist white Al-Qaeda terrorists plotting to take down the government and replace it with Chinese style communism.

Police Brand Occupy Wall Street Protestors With UV Ink

Some members of Occupy Montreal are considering legal action against the Montreal Police after they were tagged with UV ink without consent.

At 5 pm, tens of thousands of people will gather at Foley Square (just across from City Hall) in solidarity with laborers demanding jobs to rebuild this country’s infrastructure and economy. A gospel choir and a marching band will also be performing.

Afterwards we will march to our bridges. Let’s make it as musical a march as possible – bring your songs, your voice, your spirit! Our “Musical” on the bridge will culminate in a festival of light as we mark the two-month anniversary of the #occupy movement, and our commitment to shining light into our broken economic and political system.

Chris Hedges lays out the progression of Occupy Wall Street and makes clear that we are now entering into the final phase of the start of a revolution against the elite.

Welcome to the revolution. Our elites have exposed their hand. They have nothing to offer. They can destroy but they cannot build. They can repress but they cannot lead. They can steal but they cannot share. They can talk but they cannot speak. They are as dead and useless to us as the water-soaked books, tents, sleeping bags, suitcases, food boxes and clothes that were tossed by sanitation workers Tuesday morning into garbage trucks in New York City. They have no ideas, no plans and no vision for the future.

Occupy Denver

Our decaying corporate regime has strutted in Portland, Oakland and New York with their baton-wielding cops into a fool’s paradise. They think they can clean up “the mess”—always employing the language of personal hygiene and public security—by making us disappear. They think we will all go home and accept their corporate nation, a nation where crime and government policy have become indistinguishable, where nothing in America, including the ordinary citizen, is deemed by those in power worth protecting or preserving, where corporate oligarchs awash in hundreds of millions of dollars are permitted to loot and pillage the last shreds of collective wealth, human capital and natural resources, a nation where the poor do not eat and workers do not work, a nation where the sick die and children go hungry, a nation where the consent of the governed and the voice of the people is a cruel joke.

Get back into your cages, they are telling us. Return to watching the lies, absurdities, trivia and celebrity gossip we feed you in 24-hour cycles on television. Invest your emotional energy in the vast system of popular entertainment. Run up your credit card debt. Pay your loans. Be thankful for the scraps we toss. Chant back to us our phrases about democracy, greatness and freedom. Vote in our rigged political theater. Send your young men and women to fight and die in useless, unwinnable wars that provide corporations with huge profits. Stand by mutely as our bipartisan congressional super committee, either through consensus or cynical dysfunction, plunges you into a society without basic social services including unemployment benefits. Pay for the crimes of Wall Street.

The rogues’ gallery of Wall Street crooks, such as Lloyd Blankfein at Goldman Sachs, Howard Milstein at New York Private Bank & Trust, the media tycoon Rupert Murdoch, the Koch brothers and Jamie Dimon at JPMorgan Chase & Co., no doubt think it’s over. They think it is back to the business of harvesting what is left of America to swell their personal and corporate fortunes. But they no longer have any concept of what is happening around them. They are as mystified and clueless about these uprisings as the courtiers at Versailles or in the Forbidden City who never understood until the very end that their world was collapsing. The billionaire mayor of New York, enriched by a deregulated Wall Street, is unable to grasp why people would spend two months sleeping in an open park and marching on banks. He says he understands that the Occupy protests are “cathartic” and “entertaining,” as if demonstrating against the pain of being homeless and unemployed is a form of therapy or diversion, but that it is time to let the adults handle the affairs of state. Democratic and Republican mayors, along with their parties, have sold us out. But for them this is the beginning of the end.

The historian Crane Brinton in his book “Anatomy of a Revolution” laid out the common route to revolution. The preconditions for successful revolution, Brinton argued, are discontent that affects nearly all social classes, widespread feelings of entrapment and despair, unfulfilled expectations, a unified solidarity in opposition to a tiny power elite, a refusal by scholars and thinkers to continue to defend the actions of the ruling class, an inability of government to respond to the basic needs of citizens, a steady loss of will within the power elite itself and defections from the inner circle, a crippling isolation that leaves the power elite without any allies or outside support and, finally, a financial crisis. Our corporate elite, as far as Brinton was concerned, has amply fulfilled these preconditions. But it is Brinton’s next observation that is most worth remembering. Revolutions always begin, he wrote, by making impossible demands that if the government met would mean the end of the old configurations of power. The second stage, the one we have entered now, is the unsuccessful attempt by the power elite to quell the unrest and discontent through physical acts of repression.

Occupy Oakland

I have seen my share of revolts, insurgencies and revolutions, from the guerrilla conflicts in the 1980s in Central America to the civil wars in Algeria, the Sudan and Yemen, to the Palestinian uprising to the revolutions in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Romania as well as the wars in the former Yugoslavia. George Orwell wrote that all tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but that once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force. We have now entered the era of naked force. The vast million-person bureaucracy of the internal security and surveillance state will not be used to stop terrorism but to try and stop us.

Despotic regimes in the end collapse internally. Once the foot soldiers who are ordered to carry out acts of repression, such as the clearing of parks or arresting or even shooting demonstrators, no longer obey orders, the old regime swiftly crumbles. When the aging East German dictator Erich Honecker was unable to get paratroopers to fire on protesting crowds in Leipzig, the regime was finished. The same refusal to employ violence doomed the communist governments in Prague and Bucharest. I watched in December 1989 as the army general that the dictator Nicolae Ceausescu had depended on to crush protests condemned him to death on Christmas Day. Tunisia’s Ben Ali and Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak lost power once they could no longer count on the security forces to fire into crowds.

The process of defection among the ruling class and security forces is slow and often imperceptible. These defections are advanced through a rigid adherence to nonviolence, a refusal to respond to police provocation and a verbal respect for the blue-uniformed police, no matter how awful they can be while wading into a crowd and using batons as battering rams against human bodies. The resignations of Oakland Mayor Jean Quan’s deputy, Sharon Cornu, and the mayor’s legal adviser and longtime friend, Dan Siegel, in protest over the clearing of the Oakland encampment are some of the first cracks in the edifice. “Support Occupy Oakland, not the 1% and its government facilitators,” Siegel tweeted after his resignation.

There were times when I entered the ring as a boxer and knew, as did the spectators, that I was woefully mismatched. Ringers, experienced boxers in need of a tuneup or a little practice, would go to the clubs where semi-pros fought, lie about their long professional fight records, and toy with us. Those fights became about something other than winning. They became about dignity and self-respect. You fought to say something about who you were as a human being. These bouts were punishing, physically brutal and demoralizing. You would get knocked down and stagger back up. You would reel backwards from a blow that felt like a cement block. You would taste the saltiness of your blood on your lips. Your vision would blur. Your ribs, the back of your neck and your abdomen would ache. Your legs would feel like lead. But the longer you held on, the more the crowd in the club turned in your favor. No one, even you, thought you could win. But then, every once in a while, the ringer would get overconfident. He would get careless. He would become a victim of his own hubris. And you would find deep within yourself some new burst of energy, some untapped strength and, with the fury of the dispossessed, bring him down. I have not put on a pair of boxing gloves for 30 years. But I felt this twinge of euphoria again in my stomach this morning, this utter certainty that the impossible is possible, this realization that the mighty will fall.

WE NEED YOU!

We are just  DAYS away from one of the most important decisions that will ever be made. The Delaware River Basin Commission will be voting to allow hydraulic fracturing known to many as fracking in the Delaware River Basin. Approximately 20,000 well permits!

We need to make sure that on Monday November 21st the right decision is made!

FOR MORE DETAILS GO TO:

savethedelawareriver.com
This is an urgent call to the fans of GASLAND and to the fracking movement across the nation, please act now to Save the Delaware River.

We need calls to come from all over the nation and we need people from all over the region to come out in protest on November 21st.

The Delaware River Basin commission is comprised of five voting members, Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York, Governor Christie of New Jersey, Governor Corbett of Pennsylvania, Governor Markell from Delaware and the Obama Administration represented by the Army Corps of Engineers. For the Delaware River to be opened up to drilling three out of five have to vote yes on the draft regulations plan. We need them all to reject the proposal and reject gas drilling and fracking.

There has never been a more urgent moment in the North east in the battle against fracking. The Delaware is the primary drinking water source for 15.6 million people and it is a national treasure.

Four actions you can take:

1) Call the the Governors from the member states and President Obama TODAY and tell them, “Hello, I am calling you to express my serious concerns about hydrofracking. Please Don’t Drill the Delaware!”

Veteran’s Day Events at Occupy Trenton to include a March to other Memorials and the Welcoming of Occupy Wall Street

Members of OWS Make Stop in Trenton on their Way to Washington DC

Friday welcomes marchers from OWS, who left Zucotti Park in NY a few days ago with the intended destination of the Occupation in Washington DC. They’ll be stopping at Occupations along the way to raise awareness of the movement.

On Veteran’s Day members of Occupy Princeton and Occupy New Brunswick along with other local organizations will be joining them in marching to Occupy Trenton where they will be camping out in our newly set up Tent City.

Veteran’s Day will be a big day for the dedicated members of Occupy Trenton. The iconic WW II Memorial will play host, along with it’s latest residents, to various Veteran’s groups and musical acts on a day that also brings the marchers from Occupy Wall Street to town. The Memorial itself will be the backdrop for the start of Occupy Trenton’s first march through the streets of the city, which will make it’s way to the WW I Memorial at 1 Memorial Drive and then on to it’s conclusion at The Trenton Battle Monument, which commemorates the American victory at the first Battle of Trenton.

 

These sites represent an important symbolism to the members of Occupy Trenton, who are determined to legally and respectfully redress the problems within our government, fully aware of our responsibility as citizens to fight “enemies both home and abroad”. The Trenton Battle Monument will also be the backdrop to OT’s second location, a permitted park where tents and other structures will be allowed, adding a much needed workable space for our media outlet as well as a place for tired Occupiers to be able to rest undisturbed after long days promoting healthy and informative dialogue about community and government.

The Coalition for Peace reports they will also be joing up with the march with them to Trenton and to march with them from Trenton to Pennsylvania as they embark toward Philadelphia Saturday morning.

Occupy Wall Street Marches into NJ

Occupy Wall Street just started a March from Wall Street to Washington D.C., arriving in DC on November 23, the deadline for the Super Committee to make its deficit reduction recommendations.

They are scheduled to arrive at Occupy New Jersey, across from the NJ State House, on Friday afternoon, November 11, Veteran’s Day. On Saturday morning, November 12, at about 9:00 AM they plan to march to the Trenton Makes Bridge into Morrisville PA and Bucks County.

If you can volunteer to March from the NJ State House to the Trenton Makes Bridge, and carry signs supplied by CFPA, please reply to this email. If you can March in Morrisville, PA, please contact Lower Bucks CFPA contact, Cathy Leary at cfpabuxmont1@aol.com or (215) 917-2891.

Local unions and other organizations have also contacted Occupy Trenton to support and get involved with the days activities.

The Progressive Democrats of New Jersey has also put out a call to their massive membership and all veteran’s to join the day’s event at the state house.

Please Note:  If you are responding to this email, please let the occupiers know you found out about it from PDA New Jersey !!!!

 

 

CALLING ALL VETERAN’S – Friday, November 11 is Veteran’s Day. We are trying to put together an event with Occupy Trenton, who is located at the Veterans Memorial, across the street from NJ State Capitol Statehouse.

 

It would be great to have some Vets step up and have an event there showing support for the occupiers who are currently up holding and honoring what so many gave their lives defending ….. the 1^st Amendment and human rights.

We are trying to put together an event for Friday in Trenton… looking for Vets, Musicians, Comedians, Poets …… I know some vets have agreed to be there around 6:30 but looking for others to be there earlier  in the day. If you know of anyone who would be able to help out with the event that day let me know.

A lot of people are off on Friday so hopefully we can put a good program together in support of our Occupy Trenton.

 

Also that day the OWS NYC March to DC will be arriving in Trenton. The OWS NYC will be spending the night in Trenton and it would be great to have a meaningful event planned for that afternoon and evening.Complete Details Included Below

 

We are hoping to kick off the event around 2:00pm.

 

In Peace and Solidarity

Occupy The Highway: The 99% March to Washington

Posted 1 hour ago on Nov. 7, 2011, 5:30 p.m. EST by OccupyWallSt

On November 3rd, the Congressional Deficit Reduction Super-Committee will meet to decide on whether or not to keep Obama’s extension to the Bush tax-cuts – which only benefit the richest 1% of Americans in any kind of significant way. Luckily, a group of OWS’ers are embarking on a two-week march from Liberty Plaza to the Whitehouse to let the committee know what the 99% think about these cuts. Join the march to make sure these tax cuts for the richest 1% of Americans are allowed to die!

More information:

The 20 mile a day/2 week march from Liberty Square to DC is set to leave this Wednesday, November 9 at noon. On Wednesday we’ll be leaving Liberty Square and marching to the New York Waterway/Hudson River Ferry and onward to Elizabeth, NJ. This is our first stop. Everyone is welcome to join this two week march. If you’d like to participate, but can’t commit for two weeks you’re welcome to join us for the day or help send us off!

The march is being organized by a few of us here at OWS. We will be in DC by Nov 23 for the Congressional Super Committee meeting. This committee has the power to keep the Bush tax cuts (that only benefit the top 1%) or let them expire. We want to be there to fight for the 99%! We will also be connecting with Occupy Philly and Occupy Baltimore along the route, and, of course, Occupy DC!
A major draw for this march is to encourage more people in rural communities to get involved as well as bring spreading the word along the highway. We are hoping people will join the march along the way; whether for an hour, a day, or the full two weeks, we feel its imperative for OWS to be involved in the historical significance of long distance marches to support, promote, and encourage economic and social equality. We will be walking from 9am to to 5pm (banker hours) and will hold nightly GA’s and/or discussions at 7pm in each town where we camp. We will be spending two days off at Occupy Philly and Occupy Baltimore. We are hoping a few people from these occupations will join us in the march to the White House and Occupy DC!

Our route is as follows:

• 11/9/11: Liberty Square to Elizabeth, NJ
• 11/10/11: Elizabeth, NJ to New Brunswick, NJ
• 11/11/11: New Brunswick, NJ to Trenton, NJ
• 11/12/11: Trenton, NJ to Andalusia, PA
• 11/13/11: Andalusia, PA to Occupy Philly
• 11/14/11: DAY OFF AT OCCUPY PHILLY
• 11/15/11: Occupy Philly to Wilmington, DE
• 11/16/11: Wilmington, DE to Newark, DE
• 11/17/11: Newark, DE to Rising Sun, MD
• 11/18/11: Rising Sun, MD to Bel Air, MD
• 11/19/11: Bel Air, MD to Occupy Baltimore
• 11/20/11: DAY OFF AT OCCUPY BALTIMORE
• 11/21/11: Occupy Baltimore to Laurel, MD
• 11/22/11: Laurel, MD to Occupy DC
• 11/23/11: Occupy DC to The White House for Super Committee meeting

Update on Occupy Trenton

 

Saturday was the 31^st day of Occupy Trenton and they are still at the Veteran’s Memorial across the street from the State house.

 

Also they had their first event of offering a seminar and workshop at 2PM to teach others how to set up an occupation in their area and how to overcome the initial challenges. They will be holding workshops every Saturday at 2pm. More details on the Saturday events can be found here ( with items needed ) http://bit.ly/tosO25

 

The Occupiers have received visits in support from State Senator Shirley Turner (609) 530-3277, Awm. Bonnie Watson Coleman (609) 292-0500 and Congressman Rush Holt (609) 750-9365. Please call and thank them for their support.

 

Also, Their City Planning Council is currently working on setting up a tent city at a nearby park. Any help or suggestions with that would be welcomed (labor, building supplies, planners, etc)

 

As for the Civil Suite :

Just received word Monday that they won a temporary injunction….Hooray!!!!

 

Important Request:

 The occupiers are in desperate need of a van or panel truck (like a bread truck ) to park near the Veteran’s Memorial.

If they had a van or panel truck they could keep their extra supplies handy, out of sight and sheltered from the elements. Keeping their stuff clean and dry. Also protected from theft.

If you or someone you know, has a van or truck for them to use please contact them at occupynewjersey@gmail.com. Be sure to include your name, phone number and email for them to get back to you.

 

Other Items Needed by the Occupiers: If you can help with any of the following, email occupynewjersey@gmail.com

• Singers/Musicians/Comedians/Poets willing to donate some time to perform when there’s special events, and Saturday afternoons.
• People to volunteer to give a couple of hours to help cover the site to allow the occupiers to get a little rest. If you can do this on a regular basis it would mean so much to them.
• Volunteers from the public to-do teach-ins, seminars, etc. A great opportunity for you and your organization to raise awareness about your specific issues.
• Help with basic marketing materials – design + manufacturing of fliers, signs, pamphlets, brochures and the likes. If anyone can assist in either providing literature ideas, design and/or copy/printing services that would be a great help and deeply appreciated.
