8. Their strategy is to strike in the middle of the night when many people have already left.

They learned that attacking peaceful US Citizens in the middle of the day didn't make them look good.

Reminds of the 'Night Raids' the military does in Afghanistan and Iraq. Our police departments are so militarized it's frightening. Especially since they have such an adversarial attitude towards the American people.

OWS should start changing its strategy also. Making sure that large crowds remain throughout the night with lots of coverage. If they want to handle this like a military operation then the protestors will need to be more creative about foiling them. The goal is to crush the movement obviously.
