Brian Becker Protests Israeli Aggression

[conniefabres]

I thought this was a peace rally? These animals just show what hypocrits they are.

And the only non-Arabs supporting them are anti-Semites who don't give a shit about the poor pitiful Pallies. They just want to go out in public and denounce Israel just for the fun of it.

[CajunCommie]

So, in your words, these people are racists who are self centered and mean spirited. I love how conservatives project themselves onto others.

It must be much easier dealing with your ideological enemies by labeling them selfish and vain instead of thinking that people different from other people can actually have empathy for their plight, and white people aren't by default the good guys,

Israel left Lebanon in 2000. Maybe he should educate himself before speaking such nonsense?

Vote for Ron Paul in 2008!

ANSWER is not the ANSWER to war...stop the racist authoritarian "commies" who have co-opted every movement they join and support brutal muderous dictators such as Stalin and Lenin and Mao instead of standing with the people! It is time to take back our movement from ANSWER and UFPJ and WCW and TONC and fight against all fascism left and right!

[Anokpoet]

Also they were chanting rah rah Hezbollah a group known for terrorism and they seem to support Iran which just had a racist holocaust deniers confrence and as well support other middle east countries that have horrible human rights especially for women just so long as it is not Israel and that is wrong we must stand against all countries of the Middle East and the U.S. and any country that cannot treat people with dignity and respect, we must work to tear down borders!

[CajunCommie]

Oh my lord, you don't know any history, do you?

[Anokpoet]

Oh your lord what? Do you not know anything about ANSWER...I was a member of ANSWER I know them inside and out and I have studied affiliated groups I also have been to many of their protests and protests they have bene at I also know a bit about the middle east (I am not an expert I know this but I know enough to get what is going on and how fucked up it is)

[CajunCommie]

So what do you find objectionable about them? They do amazing work. I'm proud to be affiliated with the PSL and everything that's done in ANSWER.

[Anokpoet]

Ahhh...I get it you have been indoctrinated into the cult. ANSWER is authoritarian, supports murderous dictators, puts a burden on other communities and activists with no respect attached, they have also assaulted me for standing up for APOC (anarchist anti authoritarian autonomous people of color) they have also said things that were supportive of racism and racists and terrorist groups (not groups on the left who are called terrorist by the terrorist government but those who kill for fear)

[CajunCommie]

If you don't know, someone should tell you anarchist have a tendency of joining left wing political parties and clubs for the purpose of dismantling them and have historically fought with socialists and attacked them for maintaining "statism," that is daring to coordinate revolution via anything other than spontaneity.

Also it's insulting to both of us when you attack someone ad hominem. These issues are too important for that, we both know this.

[Anokpoet]

If you don't know, someone should tell you your information is wrong. I don't go into left wing parties too dismantle them, I joined up with ANSWER because at the time they invited me too come to meetings and get involved and I was younger and more immature at the time and stupidly joined. I have fought with some socialists who believe in authoritarianism and supporting violent dictators but I have many socialist friends who are anti authoritarian and do not support dictators.

[Anokpoet]

I never attacked you ad hominem, I was atttacking ANSWER if you want to take that as an attack on you than go ahead I won't lose sleep over it. ANSWER is hated by a lot of people on the left and you should dump them and find a real communist group not dictator supporting nuts who will latch themselves onto any movement and ruin it.

[Anokpoet]

Now I have got too ask because looking at your profile pic the face does look familiar did you grab someone at an ANSWER rally in D.C. on the 21st of March?

As far as revolution you can coordinate a revolution but doing so with leaders and authority is not a real revolution but fascism it is how hitler took power he started a revolution and declared himself authority and got people on his side revolting with him but with him as the leader. Real revolution is by the people as the people...

[Anokpoet]

...for the people meaning no leaders or authoritarian council but preferably consensus based meetings and if need be an emergency council elected by a consensus based meeting or some proper form of direct democracy. But usually a riot which can turn into a revolution is trigged by an event not by a leader and can be random and spontaneous but eventually take some form but as a collective. There are anarcho-commies one such group is NE Federation of Anarcho-Communists (NEFAC) check em out online

[CajunCommie]

You are very correct about that, but without people who are educated in theory and practice, dedicated, and far seeing the revolution will very much peeter out or be coopted by right wing opportunists.

How do you expect to coordinate the month to month or year to year goings on of an advanced economy soley on the basis of direct democracy? Why couldn't councils beholden to immediate recall work? Participatory Economics has a viable coordination system built on councils you should check it out.

[Anokpoet]

They are also ineffective and do nothing to stop the war or racism or anything they claim to be about. They have also attacked my friends and prevented them from marching because they did not fall lock step with the answer goons. Not only that but in the past ANSWER called police on protesters (most notably anarchists) if not using the state's police they use their own thugs and goons. Their version of communism is oppressive and authoritarian something I cannot get behind.

nuke israel

[FreemanZee]

No, he need not represent the majority propaganda position. He can speak in opposition to the dominant paradigm so that you can be in the correct middle. Are you?

[hueyot]

why does this guy not take issue with terrorism directed against israelis from certain palestinian and lebanese groups? talk about hypocrisy. if he really wants peace, he should condemn EQUALLY all acts of terrorism from ALL SIDES.
