Anonymous sets its sights on Wall Street
HACKTIVIST COLLECTIVE Anonymous has called on its followers to descend on Wall Street next month and occupy it.
The group has joined an existing campaign that is being promoted by Adbusters and Culture Jammers under the S17 banner, and has asked its followers to attend with tents and portable kitchens so that it can set up a barricade.
The date for the occupation is 17 September, and on its poster Anonymous said that it had one simple demand, which is "Bring Tent". We expect it will have others to make of Wall Street itself however.
Adbusters was pleased by the groups joining and welcomed it on its own web site. The flood of attention could also help it carry out other 'occupations' in other major cities.
"Simultaneous occupations of financial districts are now being planned in New York City, Madrid, Milan, London, Paris and San Francisco. With a bit of luck, this list of participating cities will grow," it wrote.
"If we can pull together just the right mix of nonviolence, tenacity and strategic smarts, S17 could be the beginning of the global revolution we've all been dreaming about for so long ... wouldn't that be lovely."
Anonymous announced its support earlier this week with a video, but has increased the campaign with a poster as the event draws closer. µ

It is about time that working people stood up to power and demanded change, I personally Cant wait for Anonymous to occupy Wall street! The ordinary people must stand up for their rights against the criminals in Wall Street who have destroyed the worlds economy and plunged the working people into poverty. While innocent people are put out of business these criminals are still rich and employed and will never ever have to face justice because they have friends in high places. Lets hope people turn out in force and show the big shots who’s the real boss. Remember if their is one thing these people fear about the public it is one man one vote! we should use our vote and destroy them ! Power insults justice all the time Just look at the Facebook -V- Pail Ceglia case or the Strauss Khan case , where the innocent victims are being discredited and denied justice because they had the courage to take on the establishment!
I thought they were doing Parliament Square in London, are they under the impression that... haven't they heard of the geographical separation of Church and State? :-)
