    Politicians should read science fiction, not westerns and detective stories.

    Humanity has already woke up.

    Israel people are fighting their dictatorship government and making a mess to the government to end this financial tyranny. watch "they are us Israel Revolution"

    many people worldwide have watched the documentary "Zeitgeist moving forward" (also on youtube) and moving toward that, especially the young ones.

    spread the word. the change is coming. now is the time for rapid actions. the governments are losing, and they know so :)
