Sheehan's courageous actions in Texas have captured the imaginations of an
American public desperate for an end to this madness. We must give them
something they can get behind, while the Bush/PNAC Regime is vulnerable,
and before the next big Distraction we all sense is imminent. Let's send
an unmistakable message of unity and determination to the world, and end
this now before things get any worse.
Since the demonstrations
which reversed the electoral decision in the Ukraine, I've heard and seen
many Ukrainians talking about large groups of foreigners who were pivotal
to their planning. Many of these groups were the ones responsible for
paying for the food, shelter, and orange banners used by the protestors. I
didn't think much of this, or the accusations of funding from agencies
such as the CIA, until I saw the same thing occurring in Lebanon.
Then, a reporter for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Carol Off, did
a piece explaining that the "spontaneous, grassroots" protests in the
Ukraine were the result of CIA funding and planning over a period of ten
years.
Sadly, the report lauded these tactics of Regime Change, but nonetheless,
proved my point.
One thing I've noticed is the tightly-controlled Western media's
willingness to ignore the unsubstantiated allegations made in Syria and
Lebanon that the Central Intelligence Agency, or Israel's Mossad, or both,
were responsible for actions like the assassination of Rafiq Hariri, and
behind the recent Opposition Movements, while at the same time, parroting
over and over the same unsubstantiated claims about Syria, emanating from
the White House den of LIARS and thieves. Even media outlets which I
consider better than the rest, like the CBC, are guilty of such
irresponsibility. When pro-Syrian demonstrators turned out in the hundreds
of thousands, proving the anti-Syrians to be the minority voice, the media
downplayed these numbers.
Just feels a bit too staged for my taste ... What I find the most
irresponsible about all of this is the fact that whoever is behind this,
they are attempting (and succeeding) to divide the Lebanese People, and
cause conflict both within the country, and towards Syria. This, of
course, aids the Israelis and PNAC Americans, who both have an interest,
and want to invade and occupy Syria (and perhaps Lebanon as well), as
called for repeatedly by the agenda which has seen Bush/PNAC illegally
invade two Arab nations already.
The CBC chose Janice Stein, a Zionist "Middle East Expert" to comment on
the situation, and she said when she saw the demonstrations she "saw the
colour orange". This was after the first anti-Syrian demo, when the colour
scheme wasn't so pronounced. Since then, orange flags, placards, etc. have
started “spontaneously" appearing in great numbers.
When I was in university, my Design professor brought in some Colour
Researchers from the University of Edmonton, who lectured on the
psychological, but also the PHYSICAL effects, colours have on the human
body and mind. This red-orange colour is one of the "comfort colours", and
you will no doubt remember seeing it in countless commercials (ING Direct,
and the creepy, stereotypical European banker, anyone ...?).
Since the CIA, or some similar agency, is ultimately behind these
carefully stage-managed displays, you know they understand what they're
doing. I believe that we should be taking a cue from them, and striking
while the iron is hot. This orange color scheme has been carefully crafted
in order to transmit "armchair understanding" of these two manufactured
crises, and make them appear to be popular uprisings.
Even though it was our Enemy putting it out there, for their own purposes,
we should seize the opportunity to claim it for ourselves, since this IS a
popular uprising, for the betterment of the world. After all, we have been
granted an unprecedented peek inside the CIA's Handbook for Non-Violent
Revolutionary Change, and you know damn well that they have studied
all of the relevant psychological factors. We should not squander the
opportunity we've been provided, and act while the soft underbellies of
these monsters is exposed.
If you are to protest, from now on, DRESS IN ORANGE, and CARRY SIGNS OF
ORANGE, rally at the feet of power, and the media, DEMANDING that the
democratic Will of the People not be ignored. I guarantee this will send
an instant message, not only to the Bush/PNAC/Bliar Regime, but to all
Americans and to the world that sees it.
Keep your signs easy to read and understand, things such as "FIRE THE
LIARS", "INVESTIGATE, IMPEACH, PROSECUTE" and at media centers, "LIARS",
or "TRAITORS", or "COWARDS".
Groups should design some
Talking Points, and designate members to speak with the reporters
on-scene. In larger centers, you should inform the media of what's going
to happen, and call the station’s News Director or Assignment Editor, and
request to be interviewed. You could even take it further, and offer your
services as an Activist Analyst for the day, just like they use
ex-military personnel, and members of Right-Wing "Think-Tanks" to
undermine our work. If they refuse, acknowledge their hypocrisy, stage a
noisy rally at their front doors, contact their competitors, and when
they arrive (and they will), talk to them.
Let's test these LIARS and War Criminals, and their media puppets, and see
just how much they truly respect "Freedom & Democracy", the words upon
which they attempt to justify the atrocities upon which they've built
their fortunes.
Regardless of what happens, the message will be sent. We have nothing to
lose. If something comes of this, then great. Follow up and celebrate. If
the rallies are ignored, or treated by the police as those in the past,
then you've just PROVEN these men to be the Hypocrites we all know them to
be ... and this message will be transmitted in no uncertain terms around
the world.
I'd like to see as many people as can not simply Rally for a few hours but
for DAYS. Those who cannot make it there, plan and hold your own local
rallies, and not only gather where your Government officials meet, but
also where the media does its business.
Let's take this thing that was designed to dupe people into supporting
what the Fascists in DC want, and turn it on its head. Let's use it as a
tool for bringing that Fascism to its knees, and demonstrate the good
intentions that were to be assumed about the "Orange Revolutionaries".
Remember, that we are the Majority, and Truth is our greatest Ally.
The only way we can fail, is if we fail to ACT.
