Gates of Vienna News Feed 10/17/2011

Gates of Vienna News Feed 10/17/2011The news feed is light tonight, for some reason. One item that isn’t in the feed (because it’s in German), a comment at Politically Incorrect, claims that Geert Wilders has been shot. As far as I can tell, this is a hysterical mistake or a hoax, because nothing new about Mr. Wilders has appeared in the media websites all day long. If anyone hears any credible information about this story, please leave a link in the comments.

The Occupy/Indignados movement continues to stage colorful street events all over the Western world. More incidents occurred in the USA, and the cleanup after last weekend’s demonstrations in Italy will reportedly cost more than half a million euros. Meanwhile, the Iranian state media claim that the Occupy uprisings prove the effectiveness of Iran’s “soft power”.

To see the headlines and the articles, open the full news post.

Thanks to C. Cantoni, Fjordman, Gaia, JP, PM, and all the other tipsters who sent these in.

Commenters are advised to leave their comments at this post (rather than with the news articles) so that they are more easily accessible.

Caveat: Articles in the news feed are posted “as is”. Gates of Vienna cannot vouch for the authenticity or accuracy of the contents of any individual item posted here. We check each entry to make sure it is relatively interesting, not patently offensive, and at least superficially plausible. The link to the original is included with each item’s title. Further research and verification are left to the reader.

The protests across the world are all well and good ,but what is the aim?It is certain that the nwo will not simply capitulate in the face of a few raggedy arsed hippies complaining,so where does it go?Unless it becomes considerably "hotter"the whole movement will just peeter out,and the commited activists will be picked off ,one by one,with manufactured charges,just like edgar Steele.The ruling fascists are goading us into civil rebellion,hoping to "legally" impose martial law that we can never escape from,this is true in all western countries,so we may as well fight,whatever the cost.
