CIA Spys, Israel, US Election, Occupy.

The first thing I read when I went online this morning was that the Iranian authorities have arrested twelve suspected CIA agents. My first thought was that these agents were the ones who had been jumping from country inciting rebellion. If true, it's been quite a tour. Starting off in Algeria then to Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Bahrain, Libya, Syria and now Iran. This comes at the same time as the US has advised it's citizens, living in Syria to leave immediately. The Arab league is thinking of establishing a "no fly zone" over Syria. We know what that means for the civilian population. I look on with interest.
Israel has refused to make it's covert nuclear programme more transparent. No surprise there. It's about time that the Netanyahoo gang were held to account for their nukes and also for the appalling treatment of the Palestinians. Just a few days ago, two Palestinian fishing boats were boarded and the occupants arrested. Both boats were confiscated. It's a disgraceful state of affairs when people can't even do a bit of fishing to feed their families and make a bit of money for themselves.
I read yesterday that Mitt Romney's campaign to be nominated as the Republican candidate for President was being funded by Goldman Sachs to the tune of $354,700. also he receives $185,800 from Morgan Stanley and $195,250 from Credit Suisse Group. Best of all would be to listen to the reason Barclays Bank gave him $155,250. Why is a British bank contributing money to an American election campaign? What do they expect in return?
A question I am hearing a lot at the moment is, "has the occupy wall street movement become stagnant?" My answer to this is yes to a certain extent. At the beginning, the lack of leadership and one clear goal was its strength. The reason being, the authorities couldn't target one or more people and say, "if we silence them, the protest will die." Now, however, the lack of co-ordination and leadership is becoming a hindrance. The movement, especially in the US, need an objective to work for, and someone to co-ordinate it. The movement here in the UK, actually have a short term goal which is the national strike on the 30th of this month. They must be a part of it to keep people aware that it is still active. The coming cuts and the further austerity measures that will come when the Euro finally collapses should galvanise support for the movement in this country.
Well that is all for this post.
