Many thanks, "civilian", for this fine photo spread:) But the shots seem to have been selected with some care, a degree of "discretion"?
It's interesting to me that neither my person, which isn't of much visual interest, or my congas which usually get some attention from cameras, appear in this spread at any point. Which leads me to believe I know who shot it:) But no biggie, the spread works pretty well in spite of it.
HOWEVER: It is even more interesting that the signs -- three of them on forty by thirtytwo Foamboard -- calling for the "abolition" or the "impeachment" of AIPAC are nowhere to be seen. So I'm curions as to the reason: is it because "civilian" found the content too "inflammatory"? Did he -- or she;) -- feel they "could be interpreted as 'antisemitic'"?
Or did Civilian let his (or her;) distaste for my personality color the reporting of an important political message?
FYI for anyone interested, one sign consists of the letters A I P A C with a red circle with a line through it superimposed (as in "verboten"?)
Another is similar, except with the word "IMPEACH" above the red circle;
the third has at the top: "impeach"? "impeach"? try to IMPEACH ( this much in black, then in big blue letters): A I P A C. (the first "A" has a squashed Star of David as the crossbar; the second "A" is actually a distorted Star combined with the letter.) All five blue letters have red "blood" dripping from them.
At the bottom, the message was: "Presidents come & go, but The Lobby goes on forever".
Okay, "Civilian", I'll see you down at the Capitol at 6PM for the
Bring the TRoops Home" fast; I'm bringing all kinds of drums plus that "outrageous" AIPAC sign, also the one that says "There Ain't No War On Terror" and the "911 was a Collosal Hoax" one.
Well, have a good one!
(hehe;)

Enough with the protest warrior accusations that pro-Palestinian activists support terrorism. Pro-Palestinian protesters (not PW Zionazi infiltrators) are against Israeli apartheid and militarism and prefer descalation and reduction of tensions between Israelis and Palestinians. The most recognizable method to achieve this goal is a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza and the West Bank, thus deflating the tensions and reducing potential "terrorist" activities..
BTW, the pattern appears of "terrorists" targeting public transit throughout the world, thus increasing petroleum consumption. Who benefits form fear of riding mass transit better than the petroleum corporations and their puppet governments (Buch/CheneyCo., Saudi Royalty, etc..)?? It may be equally convienient to scapegoat Palestinians for being violent and killing babies on public transit while Al-Queda/CIA silently hide in the background, another day on the job for the world's # 1 terrorist, US Oiligarchy..
If we only believe what we hear on the corporate media, if FOX News says that Hamas did it, well then by golly we'll just have to believe 'em cuz who else can we listen to? Does anybody ever consider that feeding info from the military through corporate media filters is a really great tool for mass public deception. If u have a few moments search "PSYOPS" and discover the extent of military brainwashing campaigns for effecting a large population group's public opinion..
So again, pro-Palestinian peace acitivists DO NOT support any killings of innocent Israelis, Palestinians, US residents, etc.. or anyone else by CIA sponsored military & terrorist attacks. Any discussion on imc that attempts to compare pro-Palestinian peace activists to supporters of terrorism should be considered agent provacatuer disinfo. Since imc is free speech we cannot censor what appears to be a legitimate discussion, though simple logic rules apply and ad hominem attacks are poor quality..
The resident Protest Warrior Zionazi who regulary appears at pro-Palestinian and anti-occupation of Iraq rallies in Sacramento is clearly a paid agent provacatuer. His immunity was obvious when he committed physical assault on an unnamed activist. It would be interesting to conform the rumor that said protest warrior has neo-nazi tattoes on his arms, though we haven't been able to dialogue with him. His signs read that peace activists want to "kill Jews" and compares pro-Palestine peace activists to modern day neo-nazis. This could be the case of one to several closet neo-ZioNazi Protest Wariors being funded by right wing extremeist untraceable financial interests..
The effect of the Zionazi Protest Warrior could be adverse to passerbys in traffic who are already under the effect of corporate media. By associating the Palestinian, Hamas and peace flag with the word's "killing Jews" very visible on PW's tall sign people may associate peace activists with neo-Nazis. This is the desired effect of right wing disinfo slander propaganda working together with corporate media to further mislead and confuse the public passerbys. For this reason it is essential that PW Zionazis be asked to leave any pro-peace protests and pointed out as agent provacatuers, whether PW's are funded by FBI, CIA, Christian Zionist Pat Robertson, Richard Perle, Wolfowitz, or any other neo-con Zionist organization that pledges alleigence to Der Fuehrer GW bush..
Here's what inshop article suggests we do about Protest Wariors ZioNazis;
"The Protest Warriors are a group of right-wingers who attempt to discredit the left and disrupt the organizing we do. They try to accomplish this by attending various demonstrations with their own vague signs that seem to echo the message of the protest, but in actuality, just ridicule the message that we are really trying to send. The Protest Warriors are not your traditional fascist group, but a home-grown variety of so-called patriotic Americans who take a hard-line stance in support of the Bush Administration and everything it stands for. They draw ideologically from such far-right wing nuts as Ann Coulter and Michael Savage, echoing many of their assertions. The Protest Warriors are not worth tracking or anything like that, but if they turn up at a demonstration you're at, be sure to confront them and get them out of there."

Are they not worth tracking? Perhaps not worth following them to their bloody lair, though keeping an eye out for their vehicles at protests may be helpful to encourage them to purchase/trade for another vehicle, not like these crypto-fascists would rub shoulders with their fellow humans on public transit either, eh? Nope, PW's love the iron-clad comfort of their petroleum combusting vehicles, after all, isn't that what the occupation of Iraq and Palestine stems from, US imperialist corporate control of Iraqi oil??
The resident Sacramento Protest Warrior (Soviet Union flag, "killing Jews" sign) who attempts to discredit and slander pro-Palestinian peace activists was observed driving a white Chevy Astro with several neo-conservative bumper stickers, license plate recorded. We'll be on the lookout for this vehicle in the vicinity of the next protest. Fair warning, 'nuf said..
Most genuine people who attend pro-Palestinian peace rallies are willing to engage in respectful dialogue with people of differing opinions, though being slandered by a regular disinfo PW provacatuer is a violation of our civil rights. No mas on the dispruptive behavior of the ZioNazi Protest Warrior..

Having completely blown his cool & committed an assault in full view of several dozen people, this turkey has now demonstrated that his presence carries the potential for violence. We don't know his name, but he's well known to SPD, who one other occasions have encouraged him to leave the corner and/or to modify his modus operandi.
So if he shows up at 16/J or 16/Bwy again, or at any other protest event, I suggest somebody immediately call 808-5511 & ask the police to please come and keep the peace.

nobody likes annoying jerks, but is snitching him out to the police the right answer? is the threat of police or coercion the only way to prevent him from hastling yall?
Hezbollah, whatever one thinks of its Islamist ideology, is one of the most successful anti-imperialist guerrilla groups in the world and one that most consistentlly minimizes harm to non-combatants! I'm not aware of any target they've attacked that wasn't a legitimate one. For some early history, check out Mike Davis' article, The Poor Man's Air Force - A History of the Car Bomb (Part 1), at the URL below. The story (near the end of the article) of Hezbollah's exemplary actions against the U.S. (and French) imperialists in 1983 is inspiring!
It's also interesting to read about the attacks by Israel and the U.S. that preceded Hezbollah's attacks on them. Those actions, unlike those of Hezbollah, did kill and injure large numbers of non-combatants and thus could and should be described as terrorism.
Zionist are the new Nazis.
