CALL TO ACTION:
Attention all radical and anarchist youth! We hearby call for a black bloc to challenge the US war machine and end the Iraq War. Meet at Logan Circle at 11am to shut traffic down, fuck shit up, and bring the city to its knees once and for all.
This call is in opposition to UFPJ's vanguardist and classist call for non-violent action. Violence begets violence and the corporate sponsors of mass killing and the capitalist system do not deserve this consideration. The UFPJ and sympathizers will stand by while corporate America continues to kill and maim undeterred. We will do no such thing.
Radicals do not stand by marching in circles while Iraqis continue to suffer and die. Meet up to stand for justice, not lay down for capitalist pigs and their spineless enablers. The burden of action falls squarely on our shoulders and we must bear it.
Take the Streets
Stop the War
Smash the State

Just FYI, the author of this
Submitted by Vallan on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 4:59pmJust FYI, the author of this post has posted as a police diversion, with the intention of concentrating and segregating "rock throwing anarchists" away from the other planned M19 events.
While perhaps well intentioned (it's been posited that black bloc direct action tactics are not congruent w/ the rest of what's been planned for M19) I think this action was idiotic on the part of the author as it will likely result in a slew of folks showing up, with no organizer present and thus no direction or cohesive basis and a consequent increased chance of arrest.
I hereby encourage anyone who's planning to attend to have a preconceived route and "point of intervention" list in hand so as to reroute this potential disaster.
It might, I'll posit, be proper to integrate ourselves into one or another of the M19 actions, as I personally am unconvinced that they're entirely incongruent w/ militant direct action.
In love and struggle.
