Who is directing this misguided action?

(14,914 posts)The purpose of the fake FOX News stories is to discredit the movement. One of the main reasons the Vietnam War was stopped was because of the protest movement. In the beginning Vietnam protesters were labeled anti-American, Communists, drug addicts, etc. As the movement gained momentum it's message began to resonate with the average American. Today's ruling elite has learned from that type of experience. For them it's important to stop all activity in its infancy. This is what happened with the Occupy movement-it posed a major threat to the financial ruling elite. This is the type of psy-ops used by the CIA in third world countries to stop or discredit movements who threaten corporate interests. If the message can be made into one of cops vs thugs the average, fearful American won't get to economic inequality, or the concentration of wealth that has happened in this country during the past 30 years.

(811 posts)Let's face it, This is more fear mongering. Cop block has already exposed and posted Agent Provocateurs (Police) starting to try to incite rioting and looting. This of course is designed to provide a cover to activate the National guard. However if Co-Intel-pro operatives can be excluded from the mix, well a general strike will drive the powers that be to a more compromising position. the word here is "IF". otherwise this will not end well for anyone.

(50,983 posts)Why would they want the protestors to be seen as terrorists? Wouldn't it make more sense to just rein in police misconduct? I mean, it would be the right thing to do.
I guess between right and stupid they will choose stupid every time. Are they trying to satisfy the sensibilities of some white supremacist, neo confederate group? WTF?

(811 posts)the stubbornness of the elite is historically documented. they are never compromising, it only shows weakness. no they will demand we play the whole hand. They never fold. That is until it looks like they may lose their heads.

(50,983 posts)There should be a law against peddling such fabricated nonsense in the name of news and information.
This illustrates the twisted nature of the US intelligence apparatus. They will create a menace where none exists. I would bet any amount that the "Isis is here" sign the guy showed was being held by a US intelligence employee.
What in the hell has happened to this country? These idiots would have you believe the problem is the influence of Isis on Twitter.
Any subversive group on earth can tweet any old goddamned thing. It doesn't automatically translate into domestic "followers" as these nut cases would have us believe. I mean, Isis followers must number in the tens nationwide.
What is their end game? What possible constructive motive could they have? None that I can fathom. Is their mission to sow total chaos?
