I've been wanting to say this for a while, though I am worried that I'll be treading on thin ice, so before I begin allow me this:
This forum is a fantastic source of actual information and has certainly exposed me to things I would have not otherwise.
That being said, there is no motivation or evident challenge for the average web surfer to stay with the forum, other than hate for islam or a thirst for knowledge, which is necessarily complemented by patience and the willingness to keep looking.
The other issue is that all you can know of a person is from their posts. As a matter of fact, without them they are nobody here, and with a single one, it defines the attitude others will have towards him, because all of him that exists is what is just said. Some people might be wrong about most things, but have some information of use.
As for useful information "a disorderly mob is no more an army than a heap of building materials is a house". The first part was addressed though limited, through I'm sure fantastic JTF meetings and banning muslims and libtards, but this information here is a heap of building materials that need to be organized and hammered together to create something that really does something for anybody.
Proposal: Create editable charts, lists, and historical texts from forum information, that anyone can edit (though they must still be banable).
This includes "enemies of America" "enemies of the American way" "anti-Israel religious groups", catchy essaies/ historical texts such as "the sixth Israeli war known as the "peace-process"" and give a historical shpeal about it, a list of those involved, those who opposed it and the catastrophes of the expulsions, etc. Categorizing and exposing beliefs of each muslim group would instantaneously refute the cries of "racism" against JTF, because its scientific now, not just "saying the whole group is bad because one bacha bazi was sodomized at 10 before being busted out of the mental hospital to blow up a maternity ward", which of course is easy to refute, but liberals run when they're told they're wrong, so they need something to come to these conclusions on their own.
A big one for me is a dedicated section to post, expand on, and debate Kahanist policies. There has to be a place where all our political debates will have any use, rather than being endless conversations that few read after the first day. They of course first need to be listed an debated upon as to resemble the policies that Kahane held, and then perhaps made to fit with the current political situation (or explain how they will be applied in it), and other points added if necessary, such as what would be the relationship between a Kahanist government and farmers, silicon valley, or heavy industry (that last one clearly tax incentives would be given to encourage, from his speeches).
Kahane said that this is primarily an ideological movement, and I understand this, because if his facts were understood by all politicians, they could still be devoutly left or right or any party and still address the concerns that people would have. Hiding, like saying "oh, if the liberals also knew we wanted to do this, they would do their best to stop us from earning power" is insane. They will try regardless. Kahane, may he rest in peace, wouldn't just want journalists and commentators as his followers. We could together write a book of the modern political atmosphere that the best writers today couldn't pull off, and the money could fund more work. I think the television broadcast you had before brought a lot of credibility to the movement, but T.v. isn't the only place to be heard, and certainly not the right place to search for people interested in ideology or any thought at all.
This place could easily, with not one word added, be used to create a list of irrefutable statistics, historical documents, and profound pro-Western & Israel books. Stats and history can be editable by non-members, a great way to make newcomers feel part of JTF, and books by older members. Forums have a habit of being racist, geek forums, or just a general waste of time, and certainly the reputation they have in the minds of newcomers will not encourage them to see this as a movement, but just a forum. They were also much popular in earlier days, but have made room for wikipedia, facebook, and blogs.
Facebook is a great but disgustingly controlled area, and nobody takes blogs seriously, or do so with a serious grain of salt, and don't consider it to be viable information, so books and stat-backed charts and lists are the way to go. A list of Muslim companies/ groups involved in subverting America, how, what and why they do it, and the names off key persons and dirt on them goes a lot longer than even a book saying "muslims are trying to take over America", because more people will read it, and is also easier to point things out in and discuss them.
Some people posted and discussed the MM video about bad colleges. Academia is still good. If you don't like what liberals are doing with it, write the history of left-wingism from a conservative, or even neutral, if you bring up all the gory facts, position.
If people gain prestige from publishing through JTF (who can maybe do it through WND), there will be extra reason to join.
When listening to Kahane speeches, the one thing that saddens me, is the unshakable feeling that he had so much more left to say, that you can almost tell he wanted to. Lets be that voice, but not a lost one in the cyber-space desert.
