ALINSKY's RULES FOR RADICALS - "Personalize it"
Saul Alinsky's rules of power tactics, excerpted from his 1971 book "Rules for Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals"
1. Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
2. Never go outside the experience of your people.
3. Whenever possible go outside the experience of the enemy.
4. Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
5. Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
6. A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8. Keep the pressure on.
9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10. Maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11. If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.
12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

Agent Provacateurs employed;
on whose orders ...?
There are those in Canada who want to stay in denial after the release of news that agent provacateurs were employed in the demonstrations in Montello at the 3 Amigos summitQAt thist time of posting, the RCMP AND the Surete de Qeubec are denying the 3 cops who were outted were working for THEM
I was on the national steering committee for the demonstrations. Okay, everyone, groan together now, but after 40 years of being active I thought I had something to offer. One thing I offered up was just what the White House Protocol on BuZh's apparences actually is . which is .. no signs or placards are encouraged. That is interesting to note is it not? And that explained why the security barrier was put up. That way the signs and placards and teeshirts cannot be seen. Interesting how the 3 cops CLEARLY have no issue evident on their clothing, or holding signs or holing signs or anything! I woulda been suspicious of them, just for THAT!!!
I felt, and continue to feel, that goverment agents were also placed inside the local organizing committees, as many of the places that the 40 supporting demonstrations took place made absolutely NO sense from a strategic point of view. WHY?
Now whether or not the FULL STORY of government involvement in wiping out the real issues to the maximum extent possible will ever get exposed .. I doubt it .. but I noticed that CTV ran the SAME clip of demonstrators over and over and over again . never showing how many people attended or showing any placards at the demonstration, instead ONLY focussing on those who took part that have an antiwar issue - not the job loss issue, the give away of gas, oil and water issue and so on. I took exception to CTV calling the executives inside "top" executives and being very elistist thoroughout the coverage. I tried to call to complain; they did not take calls and did not call back. So much for media transparency, too.
This issue was put front and forward today by maisonneuve.org's mediascout, a handy dandy roundup of Canadian news, as an item called THOSE ANARCHIST PUNKS IN THEIR POLICE BOOTS. The video was released on YouTube Tuesday can be found on th elink
And you can BET it will be front and forward tomorrow as well. There is nothing remotely POLITICAL to posting about this; the entire country is posting about, including some influential MPs.
Quebec Justice Minister Jacques Dupuis was made aware of the news, but a spokesman from his office said he will not comment on the matter either.
“Two hundred protesters went nose-to-nose with riot police outside Chateau Montebello’s main gate yesterday afternoon, but while serious violence was avoided, police employed tear gas and pepper spray.
In response, protesters in gas masks, goggles, and balaclavas hurled rocks, tomatoes, and bottles filled with stones at the police.
“I’ve heard it’s nothing,” shouted Prime Minister Stephen Harper over his shoulder to reporters as he waited for his U.S. counterpart. “A couple of hundred? It’s sad.”
Media coverage of this event was the WORST coverage I have ever encountered; I found out what was happening on a Chinese UHS channel!!
See:
CBC follow up article
CTV followup article
Very good article detailing how Washington lays down its’ law and deals with protesters.

AEUB spying case spills south of border
Jeff Holubitsky, edmontonjournal.com
The AEUB is the Alberta Energy & Utilities board and they are being accused of using paid private security to infiltrate public hearings and spy on land owners. Now Montana Public Service Commissioner Ken Toole is “concerned that Montana citizens were spied upon." The Public had to watch proceedings on closed circuit TV.

When I grew up, it was said people would live TOO long. The system wouldn't be able to take care of us BOOMERS.
Well, Big Pharma has an answer. Have us get sick, to to the doctor, and then take pills that will make our whole immune system OR organs give out. As Henry Kissinger said of us: we are just useless eaters. Yeah, right.
So NewsTarget comes along and let us know what is really happening. I have made a vow NOT to publish whole long articles here any more UNLESS I write them, or they are missing from the fundamental "analysis" needed to become a true planetary healer .. and you do want to become one, don't cha ..?
So I am only posting the teasers here, but BEG YOU to go to the link and read the whole thing. The fighting in CONgress over who has the right to heal and who has the right to prescribe and what rights WE have to be WELL are being trampled; the last two weeks of wrangling did precious little good for US, the people and that is in CANADA, too.

Part 1 of Byron Richards' "Understanding the Threat to Dietary Supplements."
Your right to have free access to safe and highly effective dietary supplements is under an intense multi-pronged FDA attack. On May 14, 2007 the Supreme Court sided with the FDA by deciding not to hear the case of Nutraceutical v FDA, letting stand a federal appeals court ruling that permits the FDA to use drug-related risk/benefit analysis to determine if a nutrient is safe. This is the exact same point the FDA is trying to get put into law through Senate bill S.1082 and HR.1561, which consumers have flooded the Senate on over the past few weeks. And it is the same point the FDA is seeking to help implement on an international basis through Codex. The Supreme Court denial to hear this case is a dramatic turn of events that means there is very little time left to act to preserve free access to dietary supplements.
The first part of this article explains this issue in depth so that Americans can understand what is taking place. The second part explains the steps Americans need to take to preserve their health freedom.
*SNIP*
You may find it hard to believe that the FDA would follow this path when so many people are in need of natural and safe health options. Yet, the FDA is already working with Codex on an international basis to help establish risk analysis (toxicology) for dietary supplements.
*snip*
We must educate our legislators and get them to help us preserve our right to have free access to helpful dietary supplements. Coming soon -- Part 2 (the take action plan).

Many communities televise the meetings of their municipal governing
bodies on local cable stations. You may want to go to a meeting,
regardless of whether it is televised, and ask your elected officials
if the local government is purchasing products from ExxonMobil. If so,
please ask them to use some other supplier until the company makes a
statement calling for a withdrawal of troops from Iraq. If the
officials don’t have an answer immediately, ask if they can let you
know at the next meeting.

MEDIA RELEASE
Leaked document reveals bulk water exports to be discussed at continental integration talks
– The leaked document of a prominent Washington-based think tank
obtained by the Council of Canadians reveals that government officials
and business leaders from Canada, Mexico and the United States are
scheduled to discuss bulk water exports in a closed-door meeting at the
end of the month as part of a larger discussion on North American
integration.
Titled the “North American Future 2025 Project,”
the initiative being led by the U.S.-based Center for Strategic and
International Studies, the Conference Board of Canada and the Mexican
Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas calls for a series of
“closed-door meetings” on North American integration dealing with a
number of highly contentious issues including bulk water exports, a
joint security perimeter and a continental resource pact.
According to the document, a roundtable on the “Future of the North American
Environment,” is planned for Friday April 27 in Calgary, and will
discuss “water consumption, water transfers and artificial diversions
of bulk water” with the aim of achieving “joint optimum utilization of
the available water.”
"This is just the latest in a series of closed-door meetings that grant the business sector privileged access while shutting out the public,” says Maude Barlow, national
chairperson of the Council of Canadians. “The document is damning not
just because it outlines a process that lacks transparency and
accountability,” says Barlow, “but also because of what is being
discussed by governments and so-called corporate stakeholders.”
The document also reveals that “trilateral coordination of energy policy”
and the development of “North American security architecture” are being
discussed by high-level government officials from Canada, the U.S. and
Mexico.
The Council of Canadians is demanding that the
Canadian government cease all further participation in such talks on
North American integration until there is parliamentary debate and
meaningful public consultation on the issue
