OCCUPY LA: 'END THE FED MOVEMENT HAS TIES TO DOMESTIC TERRORISM, MILITIA MOVEMENT, NEO-NAZIS, ANTI-SEMITES

No Ron Paul Recently Ron Paul came out supporting the Occupy actions across the country, but as this compilation courtesy of Occupy Los Angeles shows, there’s a bit of a question about how that is received. See there’s this pesky hatemongering that goes on that we have covered a number of times with the “End the Fed” crowd that isn’t being ignored and…well…that’s a problem…

Occupy Los Angeles

Criticism of the Fed seems fair enough. However, the call to abolish the Federal Reserve and central banking entirely has come solely from the far-right of the American political spectrum. As we know, with right-wing extremism comes violence and racism. Unfortunately, the general public is not familiar with convoluted economic issues, and less informed Occupy protestors have been duped into supporting this pro-elite red herring. To fight this, word needs to be spread about the dark history of the “END THE FED” movement, one sprinkled with anti-Semitism, neo-Nazis, anti-government militia extremists, and even domestic terrorists. We need more awareness of the violent and racist elements that “END THE FED” brings to OWS.

“It wasn’t long after its creation under Woodrow Wilson that the Federal Reserve System became a central fixture in the world of right-wing conspiracy […] No one did more to promote anti-Fed hysteria in the early years than automobile magnate Henry Ford, who in the 1920s penned a multi-volume, anti-Semitic conspiracy opus called The International Jew, in which the Fed plays a starring role.”
