Activism See other Activism Articles Title: Seeking ideas to Jump Start Anti-War Movement As most of you are aware events in America are continuing to deteriorate. There have been attempts to fight back including the Ron Paul movement, Tea Parties and activism against illegal immigration. All noble efforts. But the problem is two fold. One is most Americans have become meek and apathetic which leaves few to fight. The other is the neocon globalist clan of lunatics will never response to these tactics. One of the great political mysteries is the apathy of the anti-war movement. More so now under Obama but barely a whisper under Bush. I think most of the folks here understand why this is and who funded the peace movements in the past. In any case, we can understand that the war is by far the most important issue for the enemies of America. Why continue to try and reason with these people about non war issues when they could care less if we live or die. And the only way these issues will be addressed if millions of Americans ask for redress in a public and forceful manner. The sheeple are under a spell of propaganda. Add the fact that they will attack anyone who dares to question issues such as immigration, Ron Paul, outsourcing, the FED and other economic issues. But there is an Achilles heel. The endless wars for Israel and other entities supported either by design or useful idiots. The hypocrisy is endless of protecting one nation while sucking the life blood out of another. One cannot fight monsters by waving the Constitution. The correct response is to, pardon my French, kick them in the fucking balls over and over. And a viable anti-war movement could be the answer. The question is what methods to use and how to inspire the meek and apathetic. I've been thinking about this for awhile and will offer some ideas. 1. The traditional protest. There seems to be a taboo lately about organized protest against the war. Would anyone show up? Would they be afraid to show? Seems to me that this would already be happening if one could gather a sizable protest group. Perhaps with inspiration. 2.) The use of fliers, email and telephone calls to enemies and friends expressing dissent against the war. That has not worked in the recent past with other issues. 3.) Asymmetrical protesting. This would involve a very direct political attack using unconventional methods. In the past, there were attempts such as http://freewayblogger.com but is was just focused on Bush if you take a look. And you will notice he and many others stopped blogging after Bush left office. Last time I checked the war is still going on. In other words, being anti-Bush or now anti-Obama is not the answer. Being more pro-American is what's needed. And to name names, nations and political gangsters. They would including the DNC, RNC, Israel and the Jewish lobby, Corporations involved in the war effort, radio personalities, politicians and other promoting the war. Adding details asking how Americans are being helped by this war while the border is open, economic doom lurks nearby and other issues. A.) Earlier today I watch a video by Nena called "99(RED) Luftballoons". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQYQTFudrqc And anti-war song from the early 80's. About children's balloons being let go causing tension or "accident" of war during the cold war. Nena was located in then West Germany. Got me thinking of a possible anti-war protest placing Red balloons with '99' on them in public places including in front of neocon establishments. But mostly on college campuses or nearby. This idea might be risque but it does give the idea of using balloons otherwise. A large balloon, fill it up and write the message. Easier than signs and more glaring. Being mindful that the placement of the balloon is what is important. B.) Some kind of ribbon awareness. All colors are of course taken so one would need to create some kind of mult-colored ribbon. C.) Traditional protest banners placed near highways or neocon entities. One problem is that these signs are taken down quickly but one could use the balloons again. Attach sufficient balloons to a poster let it get suck under ledge or tree above reach. Just some of the ideas running around in my head.

The highway signs would give us more bang for our buck,the money would have to flow to keep them up,of course..but the balloons would be a seriously easy target..a bang for the balloon and its down. If I saw one of the enemies balloons floating over my farm I would defend my airspace with all due diligence :)
Agreed. However, try raising money from 4um denizens for such an effort. Ask for money and their hearing goes south.
However, try raising money from 4um denizens for such an effort. Ask for money and their hearing goes south. I won't be asking for money as I wish to remain "Undocumented". That give me the option to be more free in how I place the signs. What would help is others helping out by posting their signs of protest against the war.
Solicit good designs to go along with the e-mail, then pick the best ones and resend them so people can simply print it out upon arrival and make some copies. Yes, you do need to market this as PRO Peace, not ANTI war. A movement has much more energy on a positive than it does on a negative.
