While I could attempt to come up with a plausible explaination for this optical illusion... I'd rather join the crowd and say "WTF?!"

The diagonal lines give the appearance of waves and your eyes try to balance it out by making them move. Its an optical illusion.

And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

Well, it's the brain's visual cortex that's being used, not the eyes. But yeah, it's basically a simple illusion caused by your brain attempting to correlate and order the information it's recieving from the eyes, hence the "movement".

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."
