black block debate

DOUBLE STANDARDS

If we can applaud militant resistance in the Intifada, why not in Europe, why not against the EU and the G8?

Or are we saying that violence is too uncivilised for European proletarians?

When a comrade has been shot, murdered, crushed under a jeep,by the state,how then can we turn around and look for someone to blame- say "the black bloc"- for causing trouble?

Or are we saying he was asking for it?

Given that the police and paramilitary arrive at demos heavily armed, why is it that violence is blamed on protestors?

Or is a demo only non-violent when the working class is disarmed?

Capital's war on humanity must be met with resistance.

It is bizarre to condemn the destruction of a McDonalds whilst millions upon millions upon millions starve, sweat and suffer.

The only issue is whether militant actions are a useful _tactic_ at particular times. It is in this context that we should approach the issues.
