NOTICE! This is a call to arms for all Passive-Aggressive demonstrators. There is a right that is being wronged and we need to meet and demonstrate and see that justice is done.
A small minority is in danger of losing their homes and habitats and the politicians who think they can run roughshod over the little people have to stop their scurrilous plans.
Oh wait, maybe I should start at the beginning as sometimes that helps to understand a problem. In America we usually don’t bother to understand long term consequences of political action but this isn’t an American problem --YET!
In the land of fire and ice, the fields offer a spooky landscape in which anything might lurk, stories abound of the “hidden folk” – thousands of elves  making their homes in Iceland’s wilderness.

So perhaps it was only a matter of time before 21st century elves got political representation. According to an AP story of December 23, 2013, “Elf advocates have joined forces with environmentalists to urge the Icelandic Road and Coastal Commission and local authorities to abandon a highway project building a direct route from the Alftanes Peninsula, where the president has a home, to the Reykjavík suburb of Gardabaer. They fear disturbing elf habitat and claimed the area is particularly important because it contains an elf church. The project has been halted until the supreme court of Iceland rules on a case brought by a group known as Friends of Law who cite both the environmental and the cultural impact – including the impact on elves – of the road project. The group has regularly brought hundreds of people out to block the bulldozers.”
So, you can see that we people here in the USA/Canada and you people over there in Europe and Oz are not the only ones who have trouble with environmentalists. However, it would be good to point out, in case you were asleep when you read the previous text, that the environmentalist have some mighty powerful allies. Anyone who has seen Lord of the Rings movies know that elves are not the kind of beings to fool around with. I have always been a fan of elves, so I have considered going to Iceland, and forming a protect the elves lobby. This is where you come in as we need to form a large group.
Now, for you people who have never studied elfdom, let me point out that the hobbit movies have slightly mis-characterized them. Most elves are not as tall as human people but are rather of short stature more like Wolowitz in Big Bang Theory. According to thousands of years of history elves can be very unfriendly to humans. But they can also help humans in many ways that most people do not even know. Fortunately, there are many people in Iceland who believe in elves and are willing to help them.
Now I think it would be a terrible thing to destroy their homeland and their homes just to build a road for some politician. I also think it may be very dangerous for that politician whose house is at the end of that road, which, if I understand correctly, is what this is all about. Now I am not one to say politicians take advantage of their office. We all know that in the United States, Congress is made up of mostly millionaires. Those few who are not millionaires at this point will be millionaires before they leave. Amazingly they will be blessed with the same “good luck” but if they should fall into disfavor with a block of political sprites, who knows? They may have to ruin their careers and do what is best for the people rather than the non-elfin super-rich lobbist.
\r\n But those politicians in Iceland may have met their match. Elves have been known to cast spells and turn people into frogs and other slimy creatures. The problem with turning someone into a frog in Iceland is there are no frogs in Iceland. It would not be a good thing, to build a road which destroys the home of many elves and then be turned into a frog and then be put into a small pond which will freeze solid during their winter. Remember their winter stretches from about September  to  June.
Iceland has a population of only 320,000+ people with about 120,000 living in Reykjavik, their capital. That is less than the city of Tulsa (394,000). My guess would be that whenever a call for a protest goes out the people can easily get friends and family out.  Just 3,000 would be 1% of the total population. That is good as the elves need help.
But the politicians should look out - the elves may call out the dwarfs and then they would be in big trouble.
