Man U Player Of The Century Eric Cantona Appeals For Peaceful Revolution Against Banks, Calls For Europeans To Pull Their Money
A few weeks ago we noted that December 7 is becoming a grass roots "banker mutiny" day, in which citizens across Europe will pull money from their banks and thus force a pan-European bank run on what is already a bankrupt financial system, which survives each day only at the expense of the continent's increasingly indebted citizens, their life of increasing austerity, and of course, the US Federal Reserve and its final backstop. In some ways we discounted the potential reach of this movement. Enter Eric Cantona - just ask any sport afficionado who the most entertaining, flamboyant and skillful football player of 1990's Manchester United was and 9 out of 10 times you will hear that name. The icon (both in England and France) whose on field antics were only matched by his kung fu skills, and who has a massive popular following, has been recorded agitating viewers (many of them), to enact a bloodless revolution against French banks: "We don't pick up weapons to kill people, to start the revolution... the revolution is really easy to do nowadays. What is the system? The system revolves around the banks. It's based on the power of the banks... so it must be destroyed starting with the banks. This means that the 3 million people with their placards on the street... they go to the bank, withdraw their money from the banks and these ones collapse. 10 million people and the banks collapse and there is not real threat, a real revolution. We must go to the bank. In this case there would be a real revolution. It's not complicated. You simply go to the bank in your country and withdraw your money. If there are enough people withdrawing their money, the system collapses. No weapon, no blood, or anything like that." A peaceful anti-banking revolution, brilliantly explained so that everyone can understand.
But comprehension is only have the battle. The other half is getting of your ass. Which is why this will never work in the US. As for Europe, we will find out in 3 weeks...

Whassamata witchu? That's EXACTLY the intended purpose. The more widespread the better. Why the hell else is it called "revolution!".
If everyone withdraws their savings from the banks there will be no major effect whatsoever. The central bank of Europe or the Fed in the U.S. will supply liquidity and the banks will carry on. If they run out of cash they will close their doors until the printing presses catch up. Banks do not need savers anymore. Savers expect interest. Banks like to create their own money and borrow the rest from the central bank at nearly zero interest. Most of the banks are held by holding companies that manipulate money through derivatives and naked shorts. If the banks sense a real rebellion they will short their own stocks and clean up.
If you want to make the banks sit up and take notice then withdraw all your funds and buy gold and silver in physical form and put it under your mattress.
The Fed unholy 12 hold physical bills and send them to the banks upon request. They also take in excess cash from the same banks. this, amigos, is a cold hard fact.
Unfortunately, this will do nothing of substance, except kicking yourself in the nuts and getting you on some sort of nefarious retribution internment vanDecamp list.
The only way to win is to stop playing with the banks game cards completely. This means, remove as much cash as possible now, take no new loans (or if you're wild go ahead and take as many as you are willing to BK), pay off old debts (if you believe the system will stay afloat permanently), go to PM's, barter, and become self-sufficient in every way you can.
Again, the best method to achieve this goal is to buy silver. Sell your detritus cars, furniture, equipment, cloths, trinkets, etc for FRN's and get Ag, trade a small percentage your Gold and buy Silver (when and if it returns to its inflation adjusted price vs gold) then re-adjust and distribute tangible/portable assets to locations outside the wire. Remember, TrannySA feel-ups and pervScan and there for more than just tyranny conditioning, they are there to disincentive capital outflow.
Running around and kicking a ball all over a field is not a mans game.
And the winner of the Missing the Whole Damn Point Award is....
The point is futile, like your hero's game of kick ball.
Attempt it on a mass scale and you will have your time wasted on a mass scale. Don't be stupid, do something constructive like learning ice hockey or real football.
On average, each game of american foofball is played for only 11 minutes. LOL.
The rest of the time they are watching the refs move a chain, or huddling, or TSA'ing themselves.
even the WSJ agrees.
Proving once more with aplomb what happens when one buries their head in the Wall Street Urinal
Here, educate yourself:
Association Football---http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football
Gridiron Football---http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gridiron_football
wikipedia: "'Gridiron' football developed in the late 19th century out of the older games of rugby football and association football (soccer). It is distinguished from other football codes by its use of helmet and shoulder pads, the forward pass, the system of downs, a line of scrimmage, more specialist positions and formations, free substitution, platooning - the use of different players for offense and defense, measurements in yards, and the ability to score points while not in possession of the ball by way of the safety. Walter Camp is credited with creating many of the rules that differentiate gridiron football from its older counterparts."
This was a note to all soccer bashers: You must at least own that fact that gridiron probably wouldn't exist in it's current form had it not been for association football (you know, the game where you use your feet to play). They just wanted a game where you can stand around for 30 seconds every time you run for 2. This staying active for 90 minutes was just too much.
spectators need time to purchase beer etc. and time
to consume. otherwise, what is the point? victory?
Tarzan, look up 'wonder goal' by this guy on youtube. The man is a goddamn gladiator!
Or, you can do something constructive like go on the internet and post meaningless blanket denials of the efficacy of collaboration between regular people towards a universally beneficial solution to problems effecting everybody in the world based solely on your own self-righteous understanding of the entire world system and/or omniscience.
It will work better if you join us, Tarzan. I love you!
Something not mentioned but extremely important:
Only about 3% of a currency is in printed form.
97% of a currency is digital.
If 3% of savings are withdrawn as cash, then that would be enough to make the banks go "tilt"!
I'm probably not the only one thinking this is infantile and dumb. I'll add and say after you can't get any paper money out you should also shred your printed checks and cut your debit and credit cards. The sooner the idiots starve into submission the faster we get to normal.
Are you prepared for a financial collapse? Will your children be ok? Your old parents? You'll get what you deserve.
agree
the devil you know ...
Yes, let's do nothing and like it...
Thank you sir may I have another!
/sarcasm
i am prepared for a financial resolution but i prefer to not use scare tactics like "collapse" it sounds too much like "mushroom clouds". i prefer to use words like "justice" and "integrity" and "morality". we need to let the bankruptcy system work. solving a problem with more of the same problem is illogical and doomed to fail.
will your children/parents be okay when the system collapses with far greater magnitude in a couple years as a result of the current "infantile and dumb" attempt to prolong it?
I don't konw, man. That is like asking the man holding you up if you can borrow his gun so you can shoot him. You're not going to fix things by 'letting the system work' when the system is owned and operated by those who crafted the collapse, or in your words, those who crafted the "justice, integrity and morality".
And with that attitude, the criminal banking cartels will carry on with the rape and pillage of our societies. This is exactly the mentality that TPTB depend on. Have you not yet figured out that they use your fear to their advantage? Let go of it. The world will spin on.
Today we are all living under ever-growing oppression, and no one is coming to our rescue. It's on us. The situation will only get better for us if we make it happen. People in positions of great power are generally loathe to see it diminished.
Will this bank run work? No idea. I think at this point it will take much more than that. I hope I'm wrong. But at least it's something, and it's worth a shot. Simply going along doing nothing is unacceptable. Just what, really, do we have to lose? Life as we now know it? Maybe. But change can be a good thing if we enact it on our terms instead of letting our oppressors make all the rules. It is, after all, the only way forward.
Under no circumstances should making a stand against injustice be derided or discouraged, no matter the chances of success. Taking any action to object to ill treatment deserves to be commended. Fear of change and the unknown is nothing but a self-imposed prison.
"Under no circumstances should making a stand against injustice be derided or discouraged, no matter the chances of success. Taking any action to object to ill treatment deserves to be commended. Fear of change and the unknown is nothing but a self-imposed prison."
Well said. Well said, indeed.
Fear of change and the unknown...
My friends, if *you* start a revolution but don't know what you will have once you get there be sure plenty of people, higher up, know exactly what *they* want.
They call you useful idiot for a reason.
When no longer useful, you are out.
You are, of course, confusing desires with actual outcomes. The "higher ups" may indeed know what they want. The key, however, is they do NOT know what will happen. No one does.
Nice try at divide and conquer, though.
No confusion. An army attacking without clear objectives will fail.
An army of rags without command attacking its own supply line, in the beginning of *winter* FFS, is beyond infantile and dumb: it is suicidal.
I'm dividing, yes, dumb and smart are not equal.
It's fairly clear that the first objective is to collapse the banks. If you want a 300 page manual on the 'processes and procedures to fix everything', I suggest you get to writing.
Let's start small. We get together and demolish you home. Yeah, let's do it!
Done! ... Huh, now what?
We build a new one right? Without a floor plan, no material at hand, not a single clue about what to do next. Who cares? We'll destroy it because we can!
Let's do it in December, just before the first snow fall!
---
Insanity. That's what it is.
If you break the banks, you also break the congressional cesspool of spending. The free market of entrepreneurs can then quickly build an efficient and job-rich replacement for the current socialist central planning system.
Only a dyed-in-the-wool central planner would ask for a complete plan to replace a failed central planning system. Sheeeesh!
Ah, the young years...
Best of luck to you, i-dog.
Non claim, it will not be fast in this paradigm's definition of fast.

Yeah, storming the Bastille was infantile and dumb as well.
If you like what you have then do nothing.
Yes, that empty symbol "Bastille". What was it, who of importance to the revolution was there and what purpose did it serve?
Go on, show us all you know of History. Or you are just parroting what you heard?
"Symbol" it was. Just a flashpoint. The "spark" as it were.
That's all it takes. One never knows what will foment the rage.
As I said, if you like the way things are then just hang in there.
Something tells me the French will actually lead the way here. After we are finished hoeing down a plate of "freedom fries", perhaps we'll join in......December 7th 2015 however.
the enemy is not the banks. it is the printing press. pulling your money out of the bank won't make a difference. they'll print more.
You don't get it. If WE take all the cash on one day, and your grandmother shows up to get $20 out with her ATM card -- and it AIN'T THERE.....
That's panic!
The only way this works is when people demand they get their salary paid in cash/silver/gold, that way banks don't receive new funds to create new money off.
And when the windows close on the 7th head back on the 8th and do it again, and again on the 9th ....
Too bad that most Americans think the only money that is real money are benbucks. Tragic.

That doesn't work here banks have no cash
Why do this when all you have to do is kill the right 1,000 officials
Never follow a jock
I have no idea where you came up with your number of a thousand.
Are you crazy or something?
Everyone knows the real number is 1003.
Use both your fingers and toes next time.
All you over-educated critics miss the point. This is a football legend reaching regular people with a message. It's a start. Better than all the howling on ZH. So what if the banks can print more. It's a start. Maybe 1% of the people withdrawing their fiat cash will buy silver. May 2%. Maybe then 5%. How much of that would it take. Stop bitching and do something constructive. Otherwise all you supersmart assholes are just that, and are also meaningless cyphers, by the way. Heads will roll ultimately, and the smartasses will be among the first on the block, way ahead of the quiet ones who are the real problem. You carping wiseguys make me sick.
I agree. I do expect that many who bemoan our current situation will find cause to jump aboard when they are called. For the rest - fuck 'em.
You said "jump" "bemoan" and "fuck" in the same sentence.
You must come from one naughty village
I was attempting to edit my post when you chimed in. I want to clarify my position regarding "carping wiseguys." I am fond of several carping wiseguys/gals on this site. I'll add you to the list.
I like your attitude...bet you have a mean right hand when pushed. Incidentally, I took care of almost 42,000 of you ZH big brain talking SOB's last week who didn't buy their measly 1 oz of PHYS Ag.
Damn I'm full of myself.
Get off your ass now!
Better be at the front of the queue then!!!
A quick check of the facebook pages for the attendees in the various countries - Germany and Holland have cancelled their events - no reason stated. Greece only has 152 members attending - perhaps they know there money is not there, why bother to show up. France is close to 11,000. Italy 8000 and the UK at 3000. This will collapse everything?
Depends on how much the total $$ withdrawn is, not how many people.
It's a start. What precisely have you done that qualifies you to discount 11K plus 8K plus 3K people. Do you have some secret plan you aren't sharing? Because if you don't then shut the fuck up.
Any discount off of 22k is a start. Try using coupons you will be amazed at the discounts.
are you making fun of americanspirit? If so, you are off my carping wiseguy like list. If not, carp away.
If implemented in any volume.
You achieve a replacement of commercial (leveraged) funds for primary central bank funds (into the hands). This will blow the leverage of the afflicted bank.
I am in, joining the bank mutiny day!!!
Bienvenidos El Capitan!
Uno mas, y uno mas, y uno mas.
Awesome! He is forgiven for playing for the northern muppets...
So I pull my money out, the bank's balance sheet is restored by the Fed, my money is further devalued. Sounds like a plan.
oh well...keep ur "money"n the hands of the bankers where it wont b devalued...thats a better plan...allows u to remain their bitch as well...win, win situation for a slave...cheers...
I agree something should be done, but there is a more intelligent solution for us serfs than a torniquet to kill a leech.
Well ... don't hold back, Baldrick ... tell us your cunning plan?!
You haven't been paying attention - buy silver and protect the value of your hard earned money.
So what then - do nothing because its all useless? By the way it's the ECB ( granted a gofor to the Fed) who will have to restore the balance sheets. But, then there's the 'buy silver' part of the plan. How is the Fed or the ECB going to restore them balance sheets?
I agree, as long as the legal right to own real assets remains intact, there is some wisdom in translating fiat into property rights. However, the power that manipulates fiat is not many steps removed from the ability to manipulate property rights.
I don't know about you, but I'm certainly not telling them how much Ag I'm holding!
Point taken, but if holding PM is illegal, are you willing to face the consequences of being a black market customer or dealer? Not sure I would want to do that. National guard and police would be compelled to enforce that law. That's not the side of the law I'd want to be on.
A preferred course of action is to regain control from leviathan of ownership of the political process that confers power onto the executive, legislative, and judicial system. A friend of mine in the US started a PAC called the Freshmen 50, which was intended to support the election of 50 new independents (of any political affiliation) to the House. It's a good idea, but didn't gain the traction we hoped.
I'm not bound by national boundaries or government regulations ... so, "illegal" doesn't enter into it for me. What I own is none of their business. However, IF the oligarchs succeed in imposing martial law in the USSA, I don't believe those who remain will be permitted to barter or use any currency other than a government smart card that is topped up with "social credits" each week.
My preferred immediate course of action is for each state to regain control of protecting its citizens from Washington ... and indeed to disband the Washington connection entirely. I don't see how electing 50 independent freshmen to a corrupt nest of 535 vipers in the house and senate would change anything. Indeed, as an anarcho-capitalist, I believe that democratic government has demonstrably proven to be an abject failure and should now be discarded in favour of true individual sovereignity and a free society.
We are basically on the same page, although I might lean more toward making the effort to salvage what is good about the existing rather than begin anew. A reasonable allocation of one's assets into physical (protected by US property rights) is sound. I understand the desire to abandon ship, but it's not like it's so great anywhere else. What, Costa Rica? Let me know what you think after you try a few years. I'll take Colorado.

Silver Koala .... sold out
http://www.perthmint.com.au/catalogue/2010-australian-koala-1oz-silver-c...
A whole bunch of their silver coins sold out.
Run on fiat is silly. Run on silver is best deployment of resistance resources.
By the way, I'm kind of fond of carping wiseguys under most circumstances too. But this is serious shit and I think even the most brilliant carping wiseguys need to know when to give it a rest.
no argument from me. carry on.
Sacre Eric!
And Tyler is right again, this won't work in the US, not because all have fat asses, but because less than 1% understand why they need to rise up and defend or be slaughtered, like sheeps about to be electrified in abatoirs.
Kick 'em to the curb Eric!
G'night all - my beauty sleep beckons. The road goes on forever and the music never ends.
In Amerika we have beer runs. Bank runs? Not so much.
Pretty sure even if (insert favorite actor/musician/sitcom person here) were to tell you to "Go withdraw your fiat and buy yourself some silver" Joe6 would a: have no funds to withdraw b: miss the date c: have no idea where to buy silver d: get drunk instead.
I'm leaning more toward option D.
where would you say does one get the best deal purchasing
silver?

Americans have an uncanny ability to get riled and then defeat one another at the first reasonable idea--even if it's just a start with no massive consequences.
It is part of the reason why we never get moving in any unified direction.
It's also a reason why a strongman steps in right on the verge of cliff diving.
I'm all for a bank run. Whether it works or not, it sends a message and if the message is sent and not received, another will be sent, more serious than the last. But I have to add that trying to upend the banks without violence is the same as the Fed trying to stave off depression by printing money.
You can go through all the Keynesian gymnastics you like, but the major cause of the Great Depression, just like our current Greater Depression is that malinvestments were not written down, or not written down quickly enough, because of government intervention.
The truth is that the government cannot control economic forces. The depression happened because that's the way the economic chips fell. Same thing this time. The government cannot stop it, the can only slow it down. They have no ideas that will turn things around until the banks are liquidated and sold off. Then we can restart.
But, the banks won't have that, nor will the government, so it's up to the people. Bank runs are a start, but eventually the banks and government will fall from force. They will use violence first, most likely, in fact, already have (OK, I will research some examples). But they will fight until the end.
So, defeating the banks and eventually the government will come down to bloodshed because it's the only way it can happen. don't be deluded into thinking that there will be a "bloodless coup." There will be plenty of blood, let's just hope it's more of theirs than ours.
I got a call the other night from some JPM solicitor asking if I'd like to open an account and recieve $100 free for doing so. After laughing, out loud I might add, and telling the guy what I thought of his employer... I hung up and could only ponder the state of that turd's reserves.
All we need is Sebastien Chabal, Michael Shumacher, Valentino Rossi and some famous dude who plays cricket with a sore spot for banksters and we got ourselves a party.
And if Ireland accepts the 38 billion euro credit card ?????
Let us think, debt on debt (all be it at a lower rate) when the push comes to shove they can't afford the one they have in their pocket at the moment.
If they do, we are done, forget the banks they are as much pawns as the rest.
38 billion euros not a penny less. Drink it Freddie Drink it.
Ireland if it takes a bailout better watch out for resurgent IRA type groups as this will be seen as a sovereignty nationalism issue and the Irish a pretty sick, after a few hundred years, of being other's sex toy.
Asia going red.
no one said anything about the December 7 symbolism.... the last time it was the CFR and central banks who won.......... this time we could take it back.

You want symbolism?
How's this for more "Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works" symbolism?

If all that symbolism doesn't do it for you, there's always the more straightforward "Kiss my full moon" aspect.

I'm getting my money out before then... just in case it works.

I reckon burglaries will be at record levels on the 8th.
Dec. 7th to do list:
1) Go to bank. Withdraw cash.
2) Go to coin shop. Buy silver.
3) Go to gun shop. Buy ammo.
so the banks just don't open on the 7th.
And cash they can print at whatever volume is needed. If reserves drop, they'll just borrow them from the ECB. The central banks have vast pallets of cash laying around.
This is not the way to collapse the banks.
A run on MMAs was doing it in 2008.
Trav! I was just thinking of that. A gargantuan run on MMA's to say the least. Strangely, no word on who these depositors were. Do you know the answer or have a plausible source?
Yes, everyone definitely should remove virtually ALL their assets from their banks. But then they should take their entire wealth and convert it into physical silver and gold. Be very careful to note here... we are not buying silver and gold, and this is not an expense, since we still have all our wealth. In fact, we converted the fiat, fake, fiction, fantasy wealth the banksers now hold for us into real physical wealth we hold ourselves.
We have not lost any of our wealth, we now have more wealth because we have real, physical wealth, not gangster bankster controlled computer bits in our names.
By converting to physical silver and gold, we also kick some of the worst banks on earth in the groin, for they have untold billions of dollars of naked shorts on silver and gold. They will wiped out, if any law or justice remains on earth. Since none does, the central gangster banksters will print up untold trillions to cover those losses.
This will destroy their fiat currency system at the same moment we converted our wealth into real, physical wealth in the form of silver and gold. The honest and productive of the world will have returned the world to a defacto gold standard, and the banksters can eat cake (then later, bullets).
I already took these actions myself over the past few years, and have zero regrets (note the "price" of silver and gold). Time for everyone else to join the party before December 11, 2010.
Lots of good comments as always on ZH, but I am a little surprised by the many people shrugging this off with the logic that the bank will just close for the day. There could not be a worse response. Empty the vault filling the cash orders of the 500 protest withdrawals in the morning, and then tell the hausfrau who doesn't know Cantona from Montana in the afternoon that she can't get cash? By the time she and her ilk finish screaming, there would be a line of 5,000 people waiting for the bank to open in the morning.
In that respect, I think it is a rather ingenious plan. You only need enough protest withdrawals to force the bank to freeze, if only for the rest of the day. Once word gets out, the mad logic of bank runs will be self-reinforcing. It doesn't matter how fast the ECB prints and delivers. The mob is faster.
Have none of these twits ever heard of online banking?
Wouldn't a run spread over the time between Turkey Day and Xmas be just as effective (i.e. can't we extend our bank run longer than they can afford to stay closed)?
I'd help out, but my money hasn't been near a national bank for more than a decade.
A run on digital dollars will be replaced by whatever "liquidity program" necessary to "stabilize" the banks.
They cant create physical out of thin air, also the shock value of a heaving mob outside a bank cant be beat.
Withdraw the money, and buy silver with it (or gold).

I can't believe this. WTF? I grew up in Manchester. Eric is a fucking GOD. The comments above are the dumbest shit I've ever read on ZH. If this gets mainstream in Euro land, watch out. Guess what will be liquidated to cover?
Problem is its still at 20000+ views, when that count hits a million then we'll see fireworks.
Wonder how soon google pulls it tho.
I am conficted about this planned action...
I agree with starving the beast (already closed my Chase account and moved the business to a local bank, then paid off early my BofA loan) but it seems that the really big banks have used the last couple years to scarf up failed local bank assests "on the cheap."
Staff at my local bank don't even understand the term "fractional reserve banking" when I bring it into a conversation.
In other words, why kick a little mule in a big mule train. The average mules view of life is the back end of the mule in front of it.
Over the last five years I have also converted >80% of my paper assests to PMs, so I am on-board with changing the system.
I think, unfortunately, that it's going to take hard times (like a couple generations) to have understanding Americans.
Apropos that BOA home loan customers received this 'gift' today in the mail:
http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/7547/boaletter11182010.jpg
Note the first listed fee, 'Mailing a Verification of Mortgage to a third party $15'. Interesting..
They can feel things unraveling and are exerting control through fear into the hearts of its customers slaves with a threat of unending fees that can be changed at any whim. I'm thinking that could be the best $15 I've spent in a while..
What a bunch of fucking pussies. Americans are the least rational and most rationalizing cock suckers on the planet. All the radical ZH bullshit comments day in, day out, and when someone in high profile comes out and takes a position, you all start hedging and explaining why it'll be a fruitless exercise. I realize no one will read this because I'm kickin' it on Hawaiian time (having 'gone dark' for real), but honestly, you fucking dildos make me sick. A proper hero sticks his neck out to at least try and make the banks sweat and you all explain how it can't work....then go back to 'trading' your fucking GM IPO and GLD bullshit. And your penny assed stash of PM's whilst paying a fucking mortgage, car payment and credit card bills!. Fucking suckers. No wonder the US populace can be so done over,time and time again. You're so fucking docile.
Completely accurate.
believe me the last thing what you want are bank runs or a silver nuke at the moment! scary stuff what I am reading here...
we are all full of scary way before anyone read this thread. believe me.

The Gary Null Show - 11/18/10I love Gary Null. I listened to him way back in the WBAI days. A true lover of Gods creation of the human body. A man who is in total touch with his soul. A beautiful man.
he's back on wbai at noon. est
I clicked on the link and listened to some of his archived shows. He has become more insightful and thoughtful than ever .His topics today are a fine balance between health and the state of society today. Thanks for the link. I will be listening to him every day. We need more people like Gary Null.
Said he wanted people to call with their opinions about WikiLeaks. Lady called started giving her opinion and he ended up turning the call into a rant about Israelis. What a punk. If he wants to rant about Israel, why not just do it instead of trying to disguising it as opinion gathering on WikiLeaks.
He was a fantasic player, and he is street smart indeed. If you havent seen the most fantastic goal gesture ever done, please have a look at the following clip:

Used to be only 6% of total money credit only existed in cash.Will "the Seagulls follow the trawler".Just been to my bank to see if a cheque had cleared used to be approx 3 days.Just told now 6 working days + 1.Quicker 20 years ago,pushing for total electronic system.Will be drawing out money on December 7th,banks deserve to fail due to greed and neglect of customers.Stuff "Globalisation" up their A****s.
i am going to sound a drongo here so please excercise forebearance: deposits collapse, credit (bank assets)collapses faster (via the reverse of multiplier effect)...money supply decreases, shouldn't prices tumble ?(ie deflation)...sorry for naive question
Unable to watch that vid after several attempts and the site is as slow as mollasses....
This might work; it might not. None of us knows with certainty (if so, may I borrow your crystal ball?).
However, adopting the attitude of "I'm not doing this BECAUSE it will never work," is precisely the mindset that TPTB want you to have. So, think of this like playing poker. Your most successful tactic is to do what your opponent does not expect. Since TPTB expect and count on your apathy, don't be apathetic, even if you think it won't work.
For the ignorant imbeciles who say Eric Cantona is a nobody and he has 'about 11 people backing him' up - you have no idea. If you believe this man is mentally deranged, and has no support, I dare you go "all in" on banks.
We need a revolution of ideas. We have become New Wave Slaves and it is time we stand up and make our voices be heard. It is a simple 3 step plan: Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out- Break the Banks

A bank run will not work. It will get headlines for a day or two. It must be more methodical to have real impact. Pass this article around. (perfect for ZH)
Rock On.
Tried to post this link to HP and they blocked me everytime
Objections to the proposed bank depositors' strike presume 2 impossible-to-meet expections, namely:
1) that if it doesn't totally overthrow the system it shouldn't be done, or
2)that doing it may have unpleasant repercussions.
Doubtless, had they been there, today's objectors would have raised the very same objections to demanding service at a segregated lunch counter, or to joining Ghandi's "salt march".
Understand instead, the proposed protest is peaceful, you can't expect real change in one pure and easy demonstration, nor can you expect no counter-blows from TPTB.
Principled actions make a point, and peaceful protests retain the moral high ground.
The media will probably ignore this. If they showed up the 7th early with news cameras they might have the banks stripped out by noon. They can print all they want - but they can't do it in a half hour. Things could get ugly by afternoon.
Great stuff, squeeze their balls. I prefer the "buy silver" action though. Because you end up with something other than fiat and the action is very specifically targetted to spotlight and exploit a specific crime -- market manipulation. It is elegant.
I guess the cash run on the banks is more like a general strike--it will end with banks closed and the economy effectively shut down.
A highly satisfying game of F*CK YOU!! will have what unintended consequences?
I'm looking forward to finding out.
If I were in France I'd be doing all my banking before the 7th... you know, just to avoid the big line-ups.
Maybe this "works" in europe and maybe it doesn't. If it causes a collapse or bank holiday there, it could spread to USA easily. Maybe the "crash JP Morgan, buy silver" thing "works" and maybe it doesn't. If JP goes down it could cause quite the "holiday" no doubt. Point is, good idea or not, both efforts are underway, and the timing is known.
Most here are probably prepared for possible "holidays", but how many have friends or relatives that aren't. It is a good time to explain the wisdom of cashing in some paper assets, withdrawing the fiat, and turning all but a few months expenses into silver coin at a semi-local coin shop if possible. Doing it sooner is likely to be more profitable if "nothing happens" than waiting for the assigned dates.
