Who’s really behind Wall Street protests? Radicals foment agitation in New York, while hinting at American ‘Arab Spring’ image

As the news media struggles to find a unifying theme behind the so-called Wall Street protesters, a closer look at the activists behind the agitation reveals a trans formative agenda aimed at assaulting U.S. capitalism.

The Occupy Wall Street movement launched two weeks ago and has been escalating ever since.

The organizers exact motivation has until now been sketchy.

The Twitter feed of a group calling itself Take the Square, one of the social media planners behind the Wall Street protests, has been blasting a multitude of messages, including:

Fight “market dictatorship”

“People of the world rise up!”

“We are legion.”

“Take to the streets.”

Organizers have also been calling for rewriting the U.S. Constitution; imposing a “Robin Hood tax” on most financial transactions worldwide with the goal of taking from the “rich” to give to the “poor;” and giving the Federal Reserve permission to regulate interest rates on savings accounts.

The scheme seeks to bring to American streets the “same indignation that has prompted the people of Greece and Spain to occupy streets and squares on a permanent basis, the people of Egypt and Tunisia to overthrow their governments, the people of Iceland to nationalize their bank system and rewrite the constitution.”

A prominent supporter of the Robin Hood Tax is Jeffrey Sachs, a Columbia University economist who crafted a controversial economic “shock therapy.” Sachs is a key member of the Institute for New Economic Thinking, or INET.

Billionaire George Soros is INET’s founding sponsor, with the billionaire having provided a reported $25 million over five years to support INET activities.

So who are these guys going to get violent against? The cops? The local businesses on the street their camped on?

I mean, it’s not like the “Tea Party” is down there with them for them to fight against...I just wonder who they’re going to strike out at, if no one is there but themselves?

Given their attempt to occupy the Brooklyn bridge, apparently they intend to attack the public.

From a related article

...The hypocrisy of MoveOn.org seizing control of a protest movement dubbed ‘Occupy Wall Street’ is staggering. MoveOn.org “endorsed Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic Party primaries, fundraised and organized for him, and has become perhaps the lead lobby organization for his policies,”

...So we have a Soros-backed organization which has aggressively lobbied for Obama, whose 2008 campaign was bankrolled by Wall Street (almost $2 million donated by Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan Chase), whose 2012 run is being bankrolled by Wall Street, and whose cabinet is filled with Wall Street operatives, now announcing its involvement in protests against Wall Street.

As far as I am concerned, the White House and the CAP are behind it.

The communists are behind these protests.
And the idle rich are participating to earn their absolution from the greed of their parents.

This guy is like using unicorn blood to stay alive.

I usually don't pray for the death of a person, but the day this bastard dies and goes to hell where he belongs I will find his grave and urinate on it.

These aren’t Anarchists. They are Commie revolutionaries who want to hold the whip hand.

Let them watch what they do. Let them be afraid.

I am more than ready for a "confrontation" we should have had decades ago...

Big difference between “turn to” and “turn on”.
