what a load of crap. I am seriously tired of this anti-ows garbage and trust me I've done my research. I have been looking at Soros & OWS ties and they are very very weak. Take a look at the conclusions that were made from the beginning to the end of this thread... www.abovetopsecret.com... and it all starts to make sense
Now lets just say Soros did directly fund this movement... does he have any direct control of it at any point or even right now? It still remains leaderless and in my local occupy movement (consisting of 20-30 dedicated members) we are aware of "problem-reaction solution" and the likelihood of the desire of TPTB want us to get mad and demand a new world order. Does that mean we sit home and bash the movement in the fear of any possibility of it being backed by the same people we are fighting against? No absolutely not. They will still carry on with their agenda regardless of what we do but me and many other people would much rather get out and do at least something about it. Even if it means at the very least the exchange of information... thats better then nothing and infact the exchange of information is the most powerful tool in the global awakening against the 1% (which is probably in reality much less then 1%)
Everything anti-ows I've noticed is cherry-picking and exaggeration of the worst of the worst incidences happening at the gatherings. I have also noticed many people against the movement are still looking through the tunnel vision left-right paradigm. If you haven't heard... it is merely an illusion!
There are hundreds of thousands of people participating and thousands of separate occupy gatherings all with their own approach, beliefs, motifs, and standard of living... how can you paint on image on the movement based on the acts of a few individuals or a union? You can't, its that simple. You do your part based on what you believe and that's all you can do and that's all that matters. You shouldn't bash the entire movement because somewhere along the lines Soros money was indirectly involved through an organization (Tides) that funded another organization $190,000 over TEN YEARS (Adbusters) that indirectly had SOME part in starting the occupy movement.... or because someone in another city took a dump on a cop car or someone was doing coke in a tent. This movement is too large to try classify its centralization of power and the best thing you can do is participate IN YOUR OWN WAY based on your own beliefs instead of sitting home and poking fun at a rare, and unique awakening that has manifested itself in different ways across the globeedit on 15-11-2011 by seenavv because: (no reason given)

Dude, you can't be serious. There are so many ties its not even funny. There is no disputing it at this point. Did you see this link?
OWS has been taken over. You are doing work for the exact people you think you're against.
And the “sitting at home poking fun” BS that people keep throwing out is getting old, dude. I’ve spent YEARS of my life supporting my country. What have you done? Because I’m not marching with miscreants doesn’t mean I’m on the couch. I, and many others, happen to be engaged in activity that will actually lead to reform! It's called the Tea Party and we're actually doing something!

Liberal billionaire and favorite villain of the right George Soros may be ideologically similar to the Occupy Wall Street protesters, but comments from a limited-access email list of Occupy Wall Street organizers reveal that many of the protesters want nothing to do with the wealthy hedge fund manager — who they say is a manifestation of what they are protesting.
“If Soros speaks at the park or in support of us, we are finished. i have over 500 emails from people complaining about Soros. he is very devise,” wrote David DeGraw, the editor of AmpedStatus.com. “If you guys don’t agree, and he shows at the park, we will have to go into all out PR mode to make sure people know that anyone can just show up and speak.”
There has been speculation that Soros is one of the financial backers of the movement, a charge Soros spokesman Michael Vachon told CNBC is untrue.
“[He has not] funded the protests directly or indirectly.” Vichon said. “Assertions to the contrary are an attempt by those who oppose the protesters to cast doubt on the authenticity of the movement.”
oo please don't give up on OWS completely we could really use that support of yours there

And if one more person says it's necessary "to raise awareness," I'll give up on OWS completely.

Of course you didn't. You are so well ideologically indoctrinated that you can't see it.
Thats what makes you such an excellent specimen of an orwellian Citizen.
