Well, with the current line-up of far-left and pro-Islamic groups supporting Occupy Wall Street, it was only a matter of time before allegations started flying that renown anti-Semite Louis Farrakhans Nation of Islam was joining the fray.
ABC reports that on Saturday, Woodruff Park in Atlanta is slated to morph into a battlefield of principles as Occupy Atlanta protesters attempt to reclaim their encampments. In the days leading up to Saturdays effort, online reports have emerged claiming that OA has requested the help of none other than the Nation of Islam. Occupiers, however, deny the claims.
We have not asked the Nation of Islam to provide protection for us, Tim Franzen, spokesman for OA, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
But ABC reports:
Rumors of the collaboration began from within the Occupy Atlanta camp. In one such report by the Midtown Patch, movement representative Mandie Mitchell is credited directly with providing the information.
I think that will make a huge difference, protester David Smith added to the Midtown Patch on the matter.
Occupiers now claim that if NOI members do attend Saturdays efforts, it will be of their own accord.
If they show up its because they chose to be there, not because we invited them, said Franzen.
Given Occupy protesters track-record of anti-Semitism and the Council for Islamic Relations participation in the movement, it is not difficult to imagine the Nation of Islam is the latest in a long-line of controversial supporters.
I don’t know but you can guarantee Rev. Wright is.
I'm gonna have to drag a lawn chair and a big bowl of popcorn down to Los Angeles city hall and get myself a front row seat.
At least the cold will keep the smell down a bit.
Or a full blown inner city taxpayer funded islam indoctrination centers set up under our own noses?
I certainly hope so.
Anyone know where I can get some bean pies to use as practice targets? Keep your powder dry.
When are we going to call them what they really are? Some live in upscaled neighborhoods and some like michael moore, gunther, the hollyweirds and the union thugs have even gotten rich off capitalism.
How long would TP people been allowed to ‘occupy’ anything before the ‘T’ would be shouted 24/7?
At least TPers know what they would be protesting and they would not be
acting like these brats.
