Lessons need to be learnt from anti-war campagins when Afganistan was being heavily bombed (I think it might still be the case though press attention has died down). Despite two major rallies in Hyde Park, the Stop the War Coalition never manged to stop this, and now Afghanistan faces an uncertain future once more. I now think that we need to take more direct action, along the lines of what Tony Been said last March. I am talking about thowing a generous quantity of sand into the cogs of the capitialist machine that makes this war possible, rather than just shouting at it, and causing normal life in this country to grind to a halt. Such action inculde: Blocking petrol depots, Blocking the supply to power stations, holding RTS style rallies (Critical Mass and the like) on major roads and motorways. Pesuade trade unions to take industrial action (even a general strike), should this war start.
