 Liberals go home (and take your fascists with you) The so-called Anti-War Movements of all the countries dithering over /when/ to escalate the murder of Iraqis are a shambolic coalition of hypocrites and do-gooders. Until we sort out clearly that 2nd UN Resolution or not, Iraq should not be invaded, sanctions should cease and Turkey should be prevented from oppressing Kurds further, we are doomed to failure. We've seen clearly the pro-State policies of liberal groups like the Peace And Neutrality Alliance, the Green Party, the Labour Party and others. We've seen their willingness to savage the brave souls that are willing to engage in Non Violent Direct Action. Those groups and others are stating quite clearly that they do not support the US invasion of Iraq _if_there_is_no_second_UN_resolution !! This implies that they are perfectly OK with the murder of Iraqi civilians as long as the UN Security council can be bribed or coerced into supporting the US. Unless more principled sections of the "anti war movement" are willing to make clear http://www.counterpunch.org/giombetti03142003.html their opposition to this then they stand the risk of diluting their message and contributing to the lies and doublethink. |
