		<description><![CDATA[Climate Activism is not Terrorism

Non-action on climate change is ecological and social terrorism! Economic terrorism, too, because there is no healthy economy without a healthy, thriving environment.

&quot;Civil disobedience&quot; with respect to climate change is ecological and social obedience! The economic growth model is a failure so we&#039;ll continue to live in a failed system until we change it according to the REAL bottom line.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for all your great and continuing work, Josh.  And thanks for speaking out on this important issue.  It&#039;s one thing for all of us to be out fighting to make a better work possible by trying to stop global warming, but it&#039;s another to be faced with intimidation by the state for doing it and speaking out and going public regardless.  It takes real courage.

Things like this remind me of the words of Gandhi- &quot;First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.&quot;

Venceremos, Scott]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow Josh, that&#039;s absurd.  I never knew that you were a terrorist.  Do you remember when Professor Irish made Lynn Cheney&#039;s list of un-patriotic Americans and lots of other professors called to congratulate him?  Did you get any similar calls?  Did you ever find strange dudes going through your garbage or hear any clicking sounds on the phone?

Hope all is well with you despite your terroristy ways.  Keep up the good fight.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This response from the government should be an abuse of citizen surveillance.  It&#039;s certainly no irony, Josh, that you were working on building power to address an issue contrary to the wishes of the political administration.  If climate activists are being lumped into the terrorist category, then they are being deemed a force to be reckoned with.  

&quot;First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.&quot; -- Gandhi
If the climate movement is being fought by the powers that be, then we are that much closer to winning!

Thanks, Josh, for speaking out against this and addressing this with your valuable time.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[thanks for your work josh. 

surveillance, harassment, and even false imprisonment of activists in the US is an longstanding and ongoing issue that gets little attention, and if folks want more information on how &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Cointelpro&lt;/a&gt; type tactics are still used today against the environmental movement, check out &lt;a href=&quot;www.greenisthenewred.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;www.greenisthenewred.com&lt;/a&gt; (meaning green = the new red scare).

There is a lot that activists today can learn from the social movements that have come before us and how they have faced similar (and often far more serious and deadly) challenges, and how they have overcome them. The cointelpro link above is a great start.]]></description>

many of us are living day to day under obvious police surveillance, most of us having never participated in a violent act, nor would ever have the intention of doing so.  you are lucky to have been removed from the suspected terrorist list, many of your comrades are facing some scary realities right now.
