Message from “The Organisers” of
Don’t Attack Iraq Demonstration

 Stay peaceful.
 Don’t think, just follow.
 Don’t do anything that might upset the plans to obliterate Iraq.
 Don’t upset our good relationship with the Government. Let us have a nice day out, go home and wring our hands and moan when the bombs start raining down on defenceless women and children. We will lobby our mass murderers/liberal politicians.
 Don’t damage property, property is worth more than life. If someone breaks this Commandment then we must all repeat in mantra “we oppose violence”. Then we’ll turn them over to the State.
 Don’t acknowledge that property feels no pain. As damaging property means our friends’ profits will be effected. We wouldn’t like that and our friends in the press will criticise us for not controlling you properly.
 Don’t recognise that our role has always been to sap the energy and anger of people and push them in more pointless, fruitless ways. Like walking around shouting slogans, waving placards, selling papers, writing letters, signing petitions and donating money to our coffers (I mean our charities/causes). While the slaughter and devastation goes on unabated.
 Do remember that people must not be allowed to take direct action to stop the devastation of the planet and the murder of its inhabitants. (proviso: unless the “direct action” is a pointless media stunt to bring more money into our bulging bank accounts).
 Don’t do anything that might give you empowerment and self-worth and might actually achieve something. Allow us to continue talking and making a living out of the catastrophe which is modern society.
 Allow us to do our role of prolonging the system. Which we achieve through manipulation, false promises, fake rhetoric and promises of an afterlife (i.e. wait, wait, wait, tomorrow, tomorrow). Through these ways we spread dis-empowerment by claiming to be “representatives”, taking people up dead ends of becoming “recruiters for the cause” (party/organisation), selling papers and following orders (political/religious doctrines). We remove hope that people can actually change things themselves. All our manoeuvring, compromising, sell-outs and elitist snobbery and moral self-righteousness means that the majority of people withdraw from any attempt to fight-back. Leaving the field open to us, to do nothing.
 Follow us, We will march you up the hill and back down again! Trust Us, we have had more than Two Hundred Years of doing this. We have been running this society (if not literally, then with our ideas). We are adept at destroying the chances for revolutionary change (e.g. 1800’s England & 1968, France), as well as actually killing them off, i.e. Russia, Spain, Cuba etc.
 Stick with us, our ideologies/religions, our worship of “Progress”, Industry & Technology and we guarantee to keep you in your work-consume-die existence. We promise that you will get monthly updates on our campaigns, allowed to come to meetings to receive orders, moulded into a cog in our organisational machine and given a sense that you are “doing something” while the planet is devastated and life destroyed.
 Mass murder? Genocide? Planetary devastation? We’ll discuss it in the next meeting. “Next Cause, anyone?”
