what were/are you thinking?

...what happened?

1,500,000+ etc. people march in London... biggest anti-war march ever in UK... a new dawn within democracy...a great example of social integration... so many celebrities endorsing... who is the funkiest samba band... blah fucking blah blah blah...

100 people sit-down in Picadilly Circus after march for act of civil defiance/solidarity/empathy...

...what's wrong with this picture?

hang your heads in shame people of the UK (and beyond)...

this is only the beginning BUT you must do better!

...and screw you Stop the War Co. (Inhibition) for endorsing your silly corporate ever so middle class brand of social darwinism...WAKE UP!
...you don't need Radio 4 coffee mornings anymore than the farmers of Columbia....

CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE EVERYWHERE NOW!!!

I completely agree- this is all great, but what will it acheive if it does not lead to action, and the eventual downfall of the capitalist/imperialist system? That has to be our ultimate goal!

On this side of the pond, most direct actions are timed to start the day after war is declared. Considering no blood has been shed yet, these rally numbers are phenomenal.
Also: you shouldn't tut-tut those who don't raise the stakes--many people simply cannot afford to be arrested or injured, even for something they strongly believe in. Just be happy they're giving us moral support.
