SMALL quiet demo 31st May
25.05.2005 22:56
Instead of wasting your time making a noise at EDO, have a quiet anti-SmashEDO demo of your own by staying at home on 31st May and reading "Iraq: Setting the record straight" on www.newamericancentury.org/iraq-042005.pdf - you never know, you might just learn something. Besides, you'll at least save your bus fare and the price of a veggie burger.
While I'm on the subject, I do love the disclaimer statement on the Smash EDO website. "We are not responsible for the actions of others etc.." I suppose you felt that calling yourselves 'Smash EDO' was suitably in keeping with your "non-violent" philosophy and wouldn't be construed as inciting any forms of violence (eg: To Smash!). I preferred BOOB myself, much more appropriate.

The arrogance of those who contribute to IM is always fun to behold.
Reality check - those who Troll on Indy are bored students and the IM kollective trying to stire up controversey because the newswire is at an all time low of visitors.

Ever heard of the saying, "there's no such thing as bad publicity" ? So far, contracts lost due to Smash EDO generated publicity = 0, awareness of EDO MBM amongst the UK business community = enhanced. So thanks for that.
You may be loud, but at 6.05pm all will be quiet, and at 8am the next morning EDO will be working again. Don't kid yourself that you make one jot of a difference.
I noticed you make no comment on the removal of Saddam. Must be a bit of an embarrasment to you, after all if your protests had been successful before and during the war he might still be there, dishing out his special blend of social services to his oh so gratful subjects.
Anyway, I don't have time for this rubbish, so I'm signing off IM for good. Here's looking at you kiddeees.
