OWS: Occupy Wall Street learns from Julius MALEMA "Juju"

With winter fast approaching and authorities whipping up popular sentiment against the Occupy Wall Street movement, the organizers of the cloud-like protests have taken a lesson from a master politician, South Africa's Julius Malema, a.k.a. "Juju".

From Oakland to New York City, and many major cites in between, protests have been going on for a couple of months now against what is perceived as the high handed ways of the rich, and the growing divide between the rich and the poor. The faltering economy does not help the situation either. And financial institutions that were bailed out with tax payer money are still refusing to make loans to small businesses thus preventing them from hiring. 

Authorities have accused the protestors of illegally occupying public areas, using unauthorized power sources in restricted areas, and generally behaving in a way that may disturb public peace. In order to have the Movement slow down, they have surreptitiously sent in homeless people to join the protests, and even some drug addicts and other criminal minds, according to reports from New York City.

To ramp up the rhetoric, coalesce and bring their case to Washington, the Occupy Wall Street Movement will be coming to Washington D.C. They plan to leave Liberty Square in New York, and march about 20 miles a day for two weeks, and reach Washington DC just about when the "Super Committee" in Congress that is reviewing tax cuts will be meeting.

 Their tactic echoes the recent march in South Africa initiated by the ANCYL (ANC Youth League) president Julius Malema. He dubbed it "The March For Economic Freedom". About 10,000 youths converged on Johannesburg, then proceeded to march, with Malema in the lead to the Union Buildings which is the seat of the South African Government in Pretoria.That was just about two short weeks ago, on October 27th 2011.

The march had widespread media coverage and showed the power 30 year old Julius Malema wields in South African politics.

Walking from New York to Washington DC in a day and age when global warming is playing tricks with the weather can be treacherous. May Washington heed the call of the Occupy Wall Street Movement, and prevent any unnecessary injuries or worse, loss of life. Afterall, the taxes these people paid bailed out the Fat Cats on Wall Street!
