Marching Thru London won't stop war nor influence leaders

Ordinary People have the power to stop war in Iraq, but not by having a march through London every month, that will not change anything

It looks like war against Iraq is inevitable; the people in power in the US will get their way one way or another. Ordinary People have the power to stop this war, but not by having a march through London every month, that will not change anything. Peaceful resistance was tried in the 60’s, it may have had a major part in stopping the Vietnam War, but after the war ended the peace movement stagnated. Nowadays the people in power will have learnt how to ‘deal’ with ‘peace movements’ – they don’t have problems letting people march through a city once in a while because they know it won’t disrupt their agenda. Direct Action - the two words that strike fear into the hearts of the rulers and the power-owners. Only Direct Action can stop this war, it is not enough to get out onto the streets and march, we need to get out on the streets and show them that we mean business, it’s time to fuck with their agenda directly, it’s time to deal with the fundamental causes of the war – Capitalism and State!
