The Covert Agenda Behind the Occupy Wall Street Protests
The Statesman-Sentinel ^ | October 26, 2011 | Robert F. Beaudine

In America, our protests appear leaderless, ill-defined, and uncoordinated. To mask the central planning, the protests began small in a few cities before the national rollout proceeded, a common tactic of most marketing schemes. These protests are not leaderless. And their well-defined agenda can be derived from those manipulating the leaderless mobs behind the scenes.

Last July, Adbusters Media Foundation announced they were organizing a street protest to occupy Wall Street. Founded in 1989 by Kalle Lasn and Bill Schmalz, this Canadian firm describes itself as “a global network of artists, activists, writers, pranksters, students, educators, and entrepreneurs who want to advance the new social activist movement of the information age.” They are anti- Capitalism, anti-consumerism, pro-environment, and pro-violence.

Adbusters is financed through its magazine subscriptions, but it also received grants the last ten years totaling $185,000 from the Tides Foundation, which is partly financed by the mastermind of financial destabilization, George Soros. Soros announced his sympathy for the protestors and has committed his organizational and financial resources.

Soros’ MoveOn.org has organized liberal protest movements in the past and urged its members to join the “occupying” protests. MoveOn.org has also promoted an Internet-based demonstration in conjunction with Rebuild the Dream, another radical group financed by Soros and led by Van Jones. Van Jones was President Obama’s former Green Jobs Czar, who resigned when his past extremism was exposed.

In an e-mail to its supporters, MoveOn predicted, “Together, we’ll add hundreds of thousands of voices of solidarity from the American Dream Movement for the protests across the country and show just how widespread outrage at the Wall Street banks really is.”

Well, they were advertising the stupid “demonstration” for weeks ahead of time.

There’s always a hidden agenda / plan.

Isn’t it funny how these morons rally around Soros? They must be descended from the loyalists that couldn’t get over the idea of obeying the foreign king. They have slave minds and want people like Soros to command them.

So what's the plan?

They remain primarily non-violent, ineffective, and increasingly annoying?

Or do they start getting more and more violent and perform a remake of 1968?

Either way it is good for the Republicans.

Back in the 60's the protests were led by kids who had received a proper education. These kids are functionally illiterate. They're only good for smoking pot, stealing each others' stuff, giving each other STD's, and committing random acts of violence.

Call me when the train full of gold and guns pulls up to some kid named Lenin and launches a real revolution.

I have a simple question. My three boys are all attending college classes. Are all these young people on Wall Street drop outs?

“So what’s the plan?”

I think Soros/Obama/various-commie-leaders wanted violence and mayhem. Their model is the 1960’s (that worked so well didn’t it). But there are two problems; these kids don’t really have a clue why they are there. If they were properly trained and indoctrinated they would all cry with the same voice “Workers of the World Unite!!!” or some such twaddle. The second problem, why they will never succeed is that the rest of the country has wised up to see them for what they are. This is another commie-revolution-wannabe which will fail.
They should just stick to the slow brainwashing of the masses through TV, Hollyweird, etc. It has actually worked.....
