US corporate media wishes that the Occupy Movement was dead already

2 Replies

‘The Occupy Wall Street group in New York is running low on money and on pace to run out by the end of the month, raising questions about the future of the movement that sparked a wave of nationwide protests against economic injustice six months ago.’ and so goes Reuters droning on about how The Occupy Movement is supposedly dead and dying. But is that really true, or does Occupy still have life let in it ready to deliver a kick to The ruling class Establishment?

‘Critics say the Occupy movement lacks demands and direction and has lost momentum. Occupy protest crowds in New York and other U.S. cities have tended to number in the hundreds rather than thousands, despite the group’s social media savvy.’

Oh, Yes, Yes, Yes… Reuters International! The protests about Capitalism destroying our country and the entire Planet Earth for that matter must be dismissed, dismissed, dismissed. …and dissed, dissed, dissed. It’s the very exact same thing here in wonderful Colorado Springs below the majestic Pikes Peak. The complaint locally is that Occupy Colorado Springs is ‘anti-soldier’ because some of the members in the local group have spoken the truth about US militarism, the US military, and YES, about the very many soldiers that make up our Establishment’s soldiers of occupation in foreign countries.

After dissing the Occupy Movement, Reuters moves on to admit some of the truth about Occupy Wall Street…

‘Funding had also been used for a “people’s kitchen” that feeds protesters and the homeless in Zuccotti Park most days and for street medics, who treat people injured during protests.

“We also do have a lot planned for the spring and we fully expect the money will start flowing in again,” she said.

A March 17 march is planned to mark the group’s six-month anniversary, and Needham said there would also be “Occupy the Fundraisers” protests against money in politics, a March 24 protest against the fossil fuel industry’s spending on lobbyists and an April 25 protest against U.S. student debt hitting $1 trillion.’

Looks like Occupy has some activities planned for and against the political Establishment after all. So it might be way too early to dismiss the Occupy as being nothing more than a failed organization of the past, most especially when the Two Party corporate dictatorship has nothing to offer up the nation but just more lies, unemployment and a growing austerity.

The misleading and dismissive Reuters reporting is from Occupy Wall Street in New York running low on cash. CASH is considered everything by Reuters International and the super rich 1% whom they write for. They WOULD begin to panic if their cash was to run low.

Pentagoons arrest Army Spc Bradley Manning in Global War On Truth

For providing the footage of the “Suicide By Cop” Helicopter Murders of Reuters reporters and civilians in Iraq. The person who snitched him off for money ,a former high-profile hacker, Adrian Lamo, said he didn’t want to “obstruct justice” as in, actually have Murderers punished for their crimes. The BBC report also falsely claims that the group of CIVILIANS murdered by the Helicopter High-Tech Hit Men “contained some Armed Men” even though the Murderers and their accomplices didn’t bring forth any such evidence. Just when I thought I could count on the BBC to put out a report unbiased by the Pentagon Warmonger Thugs.

handed his name to US authorities because of concerns over US national security and because he did not want to be found to have been “obstructing justice” in the course of any investigation.

“National Security”? NONE of the victims provided a threat to the security of the United States.
God-Damned Lying Prick. So when does the PROOF of the FACTS that the U.S. Army is on an unregulated murder spree in Iraq and routinely murders CIVILIANS, then LIES about their murderous actions, become a “threat to National Security”?

The Army commits heinous War Crimes and dares the people to provide evidence of their crimes, then when somebody IS man enough to provide the evidence, they have their PIG comrades in the FBI and Homeland “security” arrest the man.

Bradley Manning is the hero of this affair, and those who MURDERED civilians, whose victims included CHILDREN, are Cowardly Skulks.

Some “Operation Enduring Freedom” they’ve got going there. Must pretend that we’re over defending America and liberating the people. Lying sack of putrid decadent bloodstained shit.

Well well Military can’t find its copies of videos from helicopter-shooting of two Reuters reporters

Even though the videos would have been taken through the onboard computers of the helicopters involved. In order to erase that much data, one would have to “zero out” the drive on which the videos were stored. And, any other drives onto which the videos were copied.

“We had no reason to hold the video at (Central Command), nor did the higher headquarters in Iraq,”

Other than, perhaps, because it showed Army Helicopter Pilots deliberately targeting civilians…

Hanzlik said in an e-mailed statement. “We’re attempting to retrieve the video from the unit who did the investigation.”

They DID, however, show it to investigators from Reuters wanting to know what the hell happened to their reporters 3 years ago.

The good news is, the video has been leaked to at least two websites,

The July 12, 2007, attack has been reported before. But Web site Wikileaks.org on Monday posted the video shot from one of the Apache helicopters, putting it on “collateralmurder.com” site.

Now, when the Army showed Reuters the videos of their employees being summarily Executed it was done “off the record”. and they wouldn’t allow Reuters to have a copy of it, not even heavily Redacted.

gives whole new meaning to “blow ‘n’ go”. We kill you then split.

So now the Army is saying, according to the gentleman and scholar Officer quoted first, that out of all the copies they made, on various computers, including the copy shown to Reuters, they can’t find one to compare to the leaked video. Which is also according to the Army is probably authentic. Just, you know, they don’t want to CAN’T yeah that’s the ticket Can’t prove it.

Now, the Military Procurement rules forbid procuring anything for free. They have to contract the procurement for each item, at quantity, and show in triplicate how much they paid for it.
The practical upshot of that is they wouldn’t have a free operating system. For Pay Only. Windows probably. Also Mac, perhaps enterprise editions of Linux, UNIX the daddy of them all.
But probably microsux.

I’m reminded of that scene in South Park where the U.S. general is presenting the plans to the assembled troops for the coming war against Canada.
The 3D hologram starts up, sputters, dies. General yells “Goddam Windows 95! Bring me Bill Gates!” They bring in Gates, who starts to offer some bullshit explanation, general pulls out his service M1911A ACP and blows his head off.

Now, I know that they teach the soldiers some really BAD freakin’ computer habits, meaning Windoze from Microsux. Which would leave traces in three different directories, at least, two of them hidden so they can’t be easily erased. And that would be on each computer which hosted the video. Don’t believe me, because I could just as easily be bullshitting you, God knows a whole lot of people DO. Try it out. Spend a few bucks and get an “email washing” program, or just use DiskEdit from the Nortons (Symantec) utilities on every modern version of Winblows. Go online and read the user help instruction pages for any program that does that.

Or you could trust me. But it would be God-Damned impossible for the Army to simply LOSE that many files. They use a variation of this same Anti-Microsoft dissertation in every court case where they put computer files in evidence.

So as usual They Be Bullshittin’.
