Fall of the American Empire – October 15, 2011

Do Peaceful Protests Work ? – Special Report

Common Causes Behind a Revolution – Lost wars, financial crisis, poor persons rebellion and a disgruntled military. It does not take all of these to achieve a revolution but I would say the USA suffers from all four of the leading causes at this time. The stage has been set.

Gandhi – What Gandhi himself did was peaceful but let's look at the root of this. The British used to tax those in India on salt, making a fortune on it. The people were forbidden from making or taking their own salt from sea water. Who is this starting to sound like. Anyway Gandhi showed the people publicly himself making salt from sea water and started the peaceful protests. This was a tax protest, plain and simple. It was economic in nature. Get this please. Peaceful but a tax protest. Gandhi got into peaceful protests about the partitioning of India into India and Pakistan. A lot of people died from this. Eventually he was assassinated. Maybe Gandhi was non violent but there was a lot of blood shed anyway including his own when he was assassinated Here is a blow by blow account of this “peaceful” movement to gain independence form the British.

The Quit India Movement began in 1942, note WWII was ongoing at the time.

There was a civil disobedience movement which Gandhi had a big hand in. Within 24 hours of a speech Gandhi made calling for immediate independence from the UK, the National Congress was for the most part arrested and detained for the duration of WWII.

Next the British Governor General of India, Lord Linlithgow unilaterally brought India into WWII. In brief an uprising started and the British incarcerated 100,000. There were fines and public flogging. Parallel governments were set up (de jure for you constitutionalists, yes like RUSA). Underground radio stations sprang up. Gandhi’s wife and personal secretary died in custody. Gandhi went on a 21 day fast which resulted in him being released in poor health in 1944. This led the British to release Gandhi

By early 1946, all political prisoners had been released and Britain adopted a political dialogue with the Indian National Congress for the eventual transfer of power. Unfortunately the years in prison had sapped the strength of many of the Congress leaders, thus allowing the British and their sectarian political allies to press their advantage and gain more concessions. On August 15, 1947, this transfer was complete, and the states of India and Pakistan came into being. At the time of the transfer Britain was in debt to India and the transfer of control was a way for them to write off this debt. There were also revolts at the time. To say that the British left India due to peaceful protests would be incorrect. There were peaceful protests but this was just one of many ongoing factors leading to their departure.

The USSR – We all know the USSR fell apart. There were a lot of problems in the USSR. They lost the arms race with the USA. The USA was imperialistically exploiting nations while a socialist nation like the USSR would only lose in such endeavors. The arms race diverted all the USSR production facilities to the military. There were no exports to speak of. The people could not get good consumer goods and thus turned to imported goods. The Chernobyl failure and the lost Afghanistan war were weighing heavily on the people and how they viewed their government. The people were sick of the government lies and propaganda. Sounding familiar yet. They did not trust their government. They said the mainstream media had anything but the truth. There was a lot of secrecy in the USSR. There was a lot of restricted movement. The government of the USSR falsified economic reports to the point of absurdity. Sounding even more familiar. When it was too late they tried to convert military production to consumer goods. Eventually their currency collapsed and the government collapsed. Few people cared about the collapse. After the collapse the corrupt government officials looted the country selling military and other assets.

After the USSR fell their satellite nation states engaged in peaceful tactics. They voted out the communists and took control over that way. Without the USSR machine their way out of communism was clear. Romania was the only violent overthrow of a soviet state.

Martin Luther King – He was an advocate of peaceful change. He got murdered like Gandhi. At the time King was working, there were a lot of other groups and factions in operation that were not against violence. There was the Black Panther Party for one. At the time the Vietnam War was going on and there were a lot of groups opposing the government that supported King. There were a lot of demonstrations. The fed was actually investigating and prosecuting people and police for violating peoples rights, unlike today.There were riots in many cities by blacks. One of the most notable is Watts. From 1964 to 1968 there were 16 such riots. These were not peaceful protests. There was a lot of personal and property damage. Watts riots lasted 5 days and there were 34 dead (probably lot more) and over 1000 wounded. In the 1967 Newark riots 26 were dead and hundreds wounded, in six days. When King was killed in 1968 riots ensued in 125 cities. My point is that it would be unrealistic to say that King who was peaceful, accomplished much change by his own peaceful efforts only. There were so many other factors taking place at the same exact time that were anything but peaceful. These non-peaceful events and groups in my mind did bring about the changes, not King alone although he made a good figurehead and martyr.

Fall of the Shah of Iran – This started out peaceful with strikes and protests. The Shah left to go into exile. It ended with guerillas fighting troops loyal to the Shah in the street. Not a peaceful one here.

Cuba – Che and Fidel were very far from peaceful. They were actually extremely violent. Castro came in as a communist and then rapidly evolved into a dictator.

China – Mao used the Red army in a move that could not be called peaceful.

The American Revolution – Well we know that peaceful protests did not work here, violence did.

The Spanish Revolution – Quite violent.

The French Revolution – Well they stormed the Bastille which was a prison where political prisoners were being held. There was a Reign of Terror from 1793 until 1794, when between 16,000 and 40,000 people were killed. Not a nonviolent revolution.

Flash Forward to Today – Let's start with the protests in Rome this week which turned violent. Protestors had gas masks, clubs, hammers. Cars were burned. Shops and bank windows were smashed, ATM's were assaulted Protestors dressed in black with their faces covered threw bottles and set garbage bins on fire. One police van was torched Protestors threw molotov cocktails at police.The protestors got the Ministry of Defense offices trashed and set on fire causing the roof to collapse.

Here is the link to the video of the violence in Italy

Note: The people of Europe have been seriously disarmed for decades. The USA has 300 million guns and who knows how much ammo in the hands of “we the people”. What you see in Europe is not very relevant to what you will most likely be seeing in the USA. For these reasons. Michelle and Barrack flitting around the world with hundreds of well paid aides on Air Force One while people are homeless, starving and out of work is not unlike the King of France feeding his Irish Wolfhounds steaks while the people watched from outside the palace gates while starving. They got their pitchforks eventually and put the guillotine to work. Things change little.

October 15 is Global Revolution Day – Yikes global revolution, love it. No longer global protest. See their website:

http://15october.net/

They are talking 951 cities in 82 countries. Why not. The banksters have taken over the central banks of many nations around the world. This movement is far bigger than what the media lets on. It is going after world change. If you get rid of the private central banks and the people go to hard currency instead of fiat money, the amount of wars in the war will decline to almost nothing. Taking away the private central banks is the end of they tyranny IF the people force the governments to go to a hard currency. If they have the government control the central banks eliminating interest but allowing the government to control the money supply they will still have recession and inflation robbing them and their children.

Will Things Stay Peaceful – Never happen. Protestors have Assembled in many cities around the world. This is world change about to happen. The enemy is for the most part the bankers. Behind the bankers are the elitists who are trying to conquer the world through the use of rectangular pieces of paper and printing presses. The police in general have not been nice about this. In fact they are very abusive. What the police see now is a bunch of young people avoiding trouble with them. Problem is the kids you see today are not going to be the same people you see once the police become more abusive. The police will become more abusive because the protests are not only continuing but also growing. The elitists consider this failure on the part of the police! Failure Will Not Be Tolerated! Police will start using gas, smoke, water cannons, microwave weapons and other non-lethal weapons. This will for sure disburse the protestors. Then what do the protestors do? Go back to their parent's basement and hope Mom and Dad do not get evicted? Stay unemployed? Have bad credit due to unpaid student loans? Vote for a republican not a democrat or vice versa? Nope. They have no way to go and they will keep it up with an adaptation process. The police have no grounds to use violence against non violent protestors. Hiding behind stupid victimless statues is not going to work. The protestors might return with motorcycle and football helmets. They might wear gas masks. They need change and the banksters and the government are not going to do anything even resembling the change these protestors need. I expect you will see many “we the people” constitutional types joining in before long. The path for change is unfortunately doomed to be violent. The elitists are far from making real concessions and the protestors have their back against the wall.

All Roads Lead to Washington, D.C. - This is inevitable. The protestors from the different cities will need to assemble in D.C. The other cities are just the warm up phase to gain popularity, media coverage and build up their ranks. They will by this time have firm demands for the Government and Obama. Obama best case will shine them on. Worst case turn the troops lose on them. Middle of the road just ignore them. What Obama will never in a million years do, is give them what they want. The protestors are way too smart for Obama. They will want change in like three days. Obama and Congress knows this. They will most likely not be in town for the protests. Then it will be occupy Washington, D.C. If it goes unchecked then the capital cities around the world will also be occupied. This may very well happen. The problem is this. If the protestors get their way at the very least the bankers will go to jail especially the federal reserve owners and directors. The fed reserve will be abolished. Do you really think they have not been paying off those in the government? Of course they have and they will roll over on the government people. Then the government people will roll over on other government people and so it goes. Bottom line is many thousands of banksters, captains of industry and government officials will go to jail for a long time. They will also lose their wealth and family name. Duh. They are not about to go with the flow in this direction. They will fight tooth and nail for their money and freedom. This is why it is going to become violent one way or the other. Plan on it.

What the Protestors Should Do - If the protestors want to pick up the sovereign constitutionalists all they have to do is start protesting and calling for a return to the constitution in full, no variations allowed. Please spread this word to them if you can. They are basically pro constitution to a good extent anyway. There is no such thing as a private central bank under the constitution. This is going to give their protests a lot more fortitude when it comes to dealing with police. If you compel the police to back off then all sorts of good things can happen. Financial institutions of many different flavors can be shut by flooding them with protestors in front and in back. This will get a reaction from the banksters and elitists for sure. A reaction of ok what do you want.

Boycotts – This is a good ploy but the protestors have not anywhere near the financial strength to get remedy this way. Now if they go pro constitution and reach out to the constitutionalists then this will change for the better. Taking the money out of the banks while a nice idea is not going to have teeth. The FDIC just decides to not shut these banks down even if their capital is affected enough. People cannot really function if they decide to stop using banks altogether. There are some retailers in bed with the fed that they can boycott. Boycotts can be effective if they get many involved with jobs and assets.

What Should You Do – Try to bring other groups into the protests unless you believe in Obama and his change (just a joke). You sovereign patriots reach out to the Occupy people. These are not armchair revolutionaries. When we had the RUSA movement it was comprised overwhelmingly of couch potato revolutionaries. They posted on forums, wrote emails and listened to talkshoe radio shows. The Occupy people are out there on the front lines. Join them unless you can think of a better movement out there on the front lines. There is none. Forget the differences you have with them. Think of the differences you have with Obama. Don't look for perfect unison, not going to happen. Educate them on the constitution and your rights to a constitutional government and the obligations to have a constitutional government. Explain to them what a de jure government is and how easily one can be formed. Explain the office of the Sheriff and that a real Sheriff cannot work for a corporation. The same for the Police working for a corporation. Private corporate security guards are not bona fide law enforcement. They need to understand these courts doing foreclosures are corporate courts not de jure. There is so much you can teach them. They need you guys. Here is a window of opportunity. No revolution has ever been won by armchair revolutionaries. In any event do not let the dis-info people get you into thinking these Occupy people are not your friends. Support these protests any way you can. At the very least it will educate many and weaken the oppressors.
