What is the significance behind the date November 17th and why the "Mass Movement to Resist Austerity" on today's date? What is N17?

Is this what Obama meant by "help me Fundamentally Transform this nation"?

Revolutionary Organization 17 November - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:
Revolutionary Organization 17 November (Greek: Επαναστατική Οργάνωση 17 Νοέμβρη, Epanastatiki Organosi dekaefta Noemvri), (also known as 17N or N17) was a Marxisturban guerrilla organization (characterized as a terrorist group by the Greek state[1] and the United States[2] and the United Kingdom) formed in 1975 and believed to have been disbanded in 2002 after the arrest and trial of a number of its members. The group assassinated 23 people[3] in 103 attacks on U.S., British, Turkish and Greek targets
Was the Marxist Terrorist group disbanded or have they just been sleeping? Do the useful idiots in OWS understand they are rallying to the cries of a Marxist terrorist Organization?

N17 was a bloody terrorist movement from Greece filled with assasinations. Is this what OWS is rallying behind?

Yes, an international Communist movement modeled after a terror organization that bombed and assassinated people. This is the face of OWS!

Last we checked it was the OWSers with weapons and making terroristic threats.

Apparently the far left doesn't like their intentions exposed. We do have a number of trolls/thread hijackers don't we? Maybe the moderators will jump in and enforce the TOS since several posters refuse to abide by it; eh Tempest, Visvaldis & Fox Terrier?

The only exposure is of narrow minded views that the protesters are commies.

Read "The Starfish and the Spider".

We are at the beginning of a paradigm shift.

The establishment can no longer control the masses.

Can't wait to see what folks say when Obama comes to get their guns. Can they find common ground with the folks at OWS who are saying Goldman Sachs can't control the monetary policy?

For many americans a commie is everyone who isn't a decent, religious, conservative.
I doubt if any nazis (American nazis?) are protesting. What would nazis be protesting against? They would be the ones wanting to shoot the protesters.
Check out post #4 - there's plenty of reasons for the crowds to gather.
