Dissident Voice reports:
A mass mobilization in Washington, DC from November 14 to 18 has been announced to begin the next stage of the campaign to stop the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
[...] "At its root, the TPP is about modern colonialism. It is the way that Western governments and their transnational corporations, including Wall Street banks, can dominate the economies of developing nations", said Margaret Flowers, co-director of Popular Resistance. She continued "The reality is that without trade justice there cannot be climate justice, food justice; there cannot be health justice or wage justice. That is why people are mobilizing to stop the TPP."
[...] The groups will begin their protests [on Monday morning, November 16] at the US Trade Representative building on 17th Street with the message that the TPP betrays the people, planet, and democracy.
This will be followed that evening by a protest that begins at the US Chamber of Commerce and White House then marches along K Street and ends at the Reagan International Trade Center.
The next day, the groups will have an international focus protesting at multiple sites along Embassy Row to stand in solidarity with people around the world who are fighting to stop the TPP.
On the final day, the groups will focus on Congress.

Fortunately, "they" don't have the skills to carry their plans into action, not even remotely. They depend very much on people like those in this community to shut up and follow orders. They rely on these to figure out the "how" of their "what."
We've all seen with Snowden what a tremendous difference it makes when even one of us determines not to play along anymore. Imagine what could happen if a thousand Snowdens stood up and said flat out that TPP is not going to happen. Even if they did nothing more than straight out leak the secret conversations and emails of those foisting this secret treaty on us, it might be enough.
But imagine further if they actually began throwing spanners in the works. What would happen if all the secret bank accounts in the Caymans suddenly became "unavailable?" What if all the lights were to go off in Wall Street, Westchester, and DC? What if the travel plans of every one of the Illuminati (or Masters of the Universe, or Powers that Be) suddenly were to be published online for interested parties to buttonhole them for a chat about their support for this catastrophe?
If the Illuminati feel menaced enough they'll retreat to their bunkers from whence they'll mean to order martial law. That's when the rest of the world they mean to shaft with the TPP back up the cement mixers and seal them in, dig into & sever the fiber connecting them, and we all sit down for a polite and productive conversation about fixing what they have broken.
Washington DC delenda est.
