New York: Mayor Bloomberg Visits Occupy Wall Street Protests

Mayor Michael Bloomberg stopped by Zuccotti Park to visit with Occupy Wall Street protesters for the first time on Wednesday.

Bloomberg used the brief visit to address protesters, telling them to leave the park by 7 a.m. on Friday so it can be cleaned, according to the International Business Times. Protesters were "polite-ish" during the visit, Gawker reports. (Scroll down for video).

Some within the Occupy Wall Street movement have voiced concerns the call for "cleaning" is a ploy to push them away from Zuccotti Park once and for all. For instance, the city says demonstrators can't come back with "camping" materials after the cleaning is done.

Just a few days ago, Bloomberg said protesters could stay "indefinitely." Prior to that, he was not as certain in his remarks. Zuccotti Park is owned by Brookfield Properties, which recently complained to NYPD that cleaning is needed, leading to Bloomberg's latest comments.

Protestors who believe they are protesting in the name of peace and justice are only creating disorder and disturbance across the world as their mentalitiy is spreading to other parts of the world where riots and protests are occurring in the same vain as the “occupy wall street” protests.

The Holy Quran describes such people saying:

And when it is said to them: ‘Create not disorder on the earth,’ they say: ‘We are only promoters of peace.’ Beware! it is surely they who create disorder, but they do not perceive it. [Holy Quran, 2:12-13]
