Hi Sohrab. Thanks for all your Occupy Wall Street videos, they are great.
I think you would like my song. It should be the theme song of Occupy Wall Street. Hope you love it.

Occupy Wall Street: CNN iReporter Paul Richards reports from Time Square (NY) & Jello Biafra praises the OWS and gives the demonstrators some advice!
Text by Sohrab Saadat Ladjevardi
My friend and CNN iReporter Paul Richards aka Shaky Jones, on October 15, 2011 (Report 2) reporting from Times Square (NY) as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement (OWC). The below two videos are telling things which I also observed last Saturday. There is one thing I would like to point out, is that the OWC is not only a protest movement, but also a movement which wants to confirm with a loud physical voice that wrong doing has been happening for a long time. It’s about enough is enough. Do they know how to correct all the misdoings? At this time no, but I think if this movement gets bigger and spreads through the whole country, somebody will come out and become a spokesman and leader of this movement.
Occupy Wall Street – again another victory!!!! And music was an important part of it!

Today, October 15th, was a special day for this movement: International Day of Action – Massive Global Uprising…here in NY city, in America and abroad (Italy, Japan, Canada, etc.). Read more about this unspoken revolution in http://www.occupywallstreet.com.
DooBeeDooBeeDoo was at Times Square in Manhattan when thousands of locals and tourists gathered to demonstrate their dissatisfaction about anything. Today our interest was to find out whether music was a positive force in this big rally. And YES it was! Music was everywhere. Either people were rapping slogans, singing folk songs, playing all kinds of instruments or even when discussing things, you could hear and feel music. – Personally I was very happy when I saw this sign (watch below video).
Congrats: “Occupy Wall Street” won this morning!!!!

I got up this morning at 5:10 am. Turned the TV on to find out what was happening with the Occupy Wall Street movement downtown at Liberty Plaza or Zuccotti Park. This morning at 7am Mayor Bloomberg wanted to clean Zuccotti Park, and use a new set of rules (including no lying down and no sleeping bags) which were designed to end the Occupation of Wall Street for good. NY Channel 1 reported that nothing important had happened. So I got the feeling there was no reason for me to hurry. To arrive at 7am sharp was good enough. I prepared breakfast for myself and my wife. When I finished brushing my teeth, charged my Iphone, got into my jeans…got on the 1 at 79th Street. Changed to the 3 at 72nd Street and arrived at Wall Street at 6:55am and 7am sharp, I was finally there.
