Gathering of Eagles Has Antiwar Organizers on the Run!

Gathering of Eagles ^ | March 8, 2007 | GOE

[tgslTakoma]

The communist, pro-terrorist group International ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) seems to realize they are facing a hot LZ on March 17.

ANSWER has made significant changes in their plans since their initial announcement that they would hold their ‘antiwar’ rally at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Last week they changed the location of their rally from Constitution Gardens (East side of the Vietnam Memorial) to a park one block west of Memorial on Henry Bacon Drive.

Yesterday, ANSWER announced they are only going to use the Henry Bacon Drive park as a meeting point for their march to the Pentagon, rather than holding a rally there.

This does not change our plans at all.

While the Gathering of Eagles has put these communist terrorist lovers on the run, the danger to the memorials from ANSWER’s fellow travelers is growing. With each passing day, we are receiving reports of threats to desecrate the Vietnam Memorial and other Memorials. We pass this information to the Park Service for investigation.

ANSWER is asking their supporters to start arriving near the Vietnam Memorial at 8 a.m. on the 17th. They plan to start their march to the Pentagon at 12:30 p.m.. That means their people will be milling about for hours with nothing to do and may try to cause trouble.

It is imperative that the Eagles start gathering as early as possible Saturday (0700/7AM) morning and plan to stay all day.

Being that ANSWER has forsaken use of Constitution Gardens, the Gathering of Eagles has applied with the Park Service for a permit to use Constitution Gardens, an excellent location, as our rallying point and base of operations from which to spread out to protect the memorials. The Park Service should be able to tell us tomorrow (Friday) where we stand.

The anti-American left will be scattered around Washington on the 17th. The Fidel Castro groupies and Jane Fonda lovers at Code Pink will be meeting near the World War II Memorial Saturday morning before they join ANSWER’s march.

Another leftist group has plans to rally at the Lincoln Memorial near the Korean War Memorial.

When ANSWER’s march to the Pentagon is over, many of their people will be heading back across Memorial Bridge to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. We cannot let our guard down all day.

In addition to applying for Constitution Gardens, we have also applied for demonstration areas along ANSWER’s march route. Please note that we have advised the Park Service and the Pentagon that we will not be counter-protesting at the Pentagon. We would just be in the way when the leftists start trying to tear down the protective fences and the CS gas starts being used by law enforcement at the Pentagon parking area where the anti-war rally will be held.

Our plans have been slow to announce because ANSWER abuses the Park Service’s permit process by preventing other groups, like ours, from being able to obtain permits in a timely manner. Rest assured that all will be settled soon and we will soar like Eagles on March 17.

Please review our Mission Statement on www.gatheringofeagles.org to refresh the principles that under-gird Gathering of Eagles event…we hold the high ground but will be resolute in protecting our Memorials from desecration, damage,and dishonor.

Eagles Up!

I'm not a hat person. I never have been able to carry it off. They just don't look right on me. And I love hats. Cap is a good idea though.

Will be in the area on business -- just delayed my flight home til Sunday.

I'll be there from Japan!

"Let us understand: North Vietnam cannot defeat or humiliate the United States. Only Americans can do that." --Richard M. Nixon

NIXON was right....But Today?-More precisely; Only the " democrats " Can do that today.And DON'T TRY tell tell me otherwise! any of you Present day democrats who THINK you will EVER find any of the " Old Reagan democrats ANYMORE With the LEADERS the democrat party has in charge!--those who Stand AGAINST what REED/PELOSI have been saying have LONG had "their Chance" to correct matters! But haven't.

There IS no More " democrat " Party in America anymore; only TRAITORS to America & the PAST TROOPS-PRESENT TROOPS- and IF they had their way-we'd have NO FUTURE TROOPS Either!

And If this all this Anti-Americanism/Anti-American TROOP Rallying was going on back during our AMERICAN REVOLUTION (After , of course, any Torries hadn't LEFT for ENGLAND)- they would have been Tarred n Feathered- and THAT would have been the LESSER of what would have happened to them! yet THESE TRAITORS continue on here, today,untouched.

See ya all at the Wall

I'm gonna search around and find us a very patriotic shirt, all 5 of us.

I should wear my, 'you don't speak for me cindy' teeshirt I got in Crawford but I'm saving that. Besides, I hear it's gonna be chilly in DC on Saturday.

The latest I heard so far there are 125 of us attending and about 15 trying too.

[seanmerc]

I'll be there!!!

Connecticut has answered the call!

Zelig and I cancelled the plans we had for March 17... we WILL be joining you at The Gathering of Eagles on March 17. Plus, we convinced friends of ours from Montreal, Canada (who are actually dual citizens of the United States and Canada) to fly to DC for the Gathering. We see them once a year at CPAC. It is actually kind of a big deal for them to take time off work and return to the DC area within just a couple of weeks, but they are very eager to take part in the Gathering of Eagles.

I'm sorry to be a pest, but I must ask about some specifics... I did read the Gathering of Eagles Mission Statement and the information tgslTakoma has posted at the top of this thread.

The Gathering of Eagles isn't a rally or counter-rally, correct? Our only purpose will be to protect the Memorials from desecration, damage,and dishonor?

The "rally location" or meeting point for FReepers will be at Constitution Gardens, which is on the East side of the Vietnam Memorial (Wall). This is where the DC Chapter will have a check-in table for FReepers?

What to bring: American flags and signs? Are wooden and other poles OK for the flags and signs? I'm asking this because we were very restricted in our NYC rallies... our signs had to have cardboard "sticks" believe it or not because of the permits there.

Signs for March 17 should be i.e.,: "God Bless Our Troops" or... something "stronger" targeted to the moonbats? If you'd rather FReepmail me with sign ideas, please do so!

Thank you so much... for ALL that you do! :o)

[beansox]

Wish I could be there with all of you!

Sending prayers from LA!

I heard these losers were going to try to attack the new WWII memorial as well as the "wall".

Glad to see they are tucking their tail and running. Sort of reminds us of the rest of the democrats. Maybe some people will get it!!

As of a few days ago, my informal count from the Louisville, KY area is at least 50 (based on some emails I've gotten) and quite possibly a lot more. FReeper SheWolf and I will be linking up with the DC Chapter at WR on Friday night.

Being the battle hardened vets that the GOE organizers are and with the assistance of the DC Chapter, the plan we execute next weekend will be efficient and devastatingly effective at countering the anti-victory Left. I dare say that this will be history in the making. Never before has the Left's protests been met with a sizable opposition. This will be so large that the MSM will have to cover it.

Once more unto the breach, dear FRiends. The Mother of All FReeps is in EIGHT DAYS!

The RESOURCE Thread (Latest Update Here) is keeping everyone up to date as much as possible. Keep looking there.

Also, let Just A Nobody know you are coming. She has a list of FReepers that she pings undates to.

But knowing the Mall is close enough for now. We'll be within sight of the Vietnam Wall no matter where we finally get permitted. Please be patient. Thanks.

Hopefully we'll see you on Friday because there is going to be a lot of people there on Saturday.

Even having moved their assembly area, there is nothing to stop the Jihad Sheehan bunch from attacking The Wall - nothing except us.
Even if they manage to block permits, I intend to be there to pay my respects at The Wall. I haven’t needed a permit the last two times, and doubt I will need one this time.
