okay, so how do we deal with this shit then? do we go to the next UFPJ convention en masse and change the whole structure? or do we start our own anti-war network based on direct democracy, anti-authoritarianim, horizontalism, direct action, radical feminism and inclusion? whether we integrated these things into UFPJ or if we started our own, it would have a LOT of support throughout the movement - the above sentiments are by no means isolated. everyone from anarchists to librarians to palestinian activists have been saying these things, particularly around the sept 24th deal. start talking about how to deal with these fucking problems, and the "answer" can't be to simply have a breakaway march and smash some windows, or to call for a "day of decentralized actions" that fizzlie out to nearly nothing (not to bash the tactics, just the way its been executed thus far).

the war isn't going to end by itself. back in 67, plenty of folks thought vietnam would be over in a matter of months. next thing people knew it was '72 and millions were dead. get it straight: imperialism leads to colonialism, colonialism leads to resistence, resistence leads to repression, back to resistence, and so on. yeah, it'll end eventually, but it'll be in 2015, and the USA will look a lot like Iraq (and New Orleans for that matter) does right now.
