I resent this comment, Gil! The U.S. is not a dictatorship, it is an Illusional Democracy, one in which we all have an opportunity to participate in the Dream of. (McKenna, of course, was fond of refering to Tennamen Square as an 'outbreak of Democracy that frightened all the governments of the world.' I assume that the powers that be saw Seattle as another outbreak of Democracy. Much of what has happened to human rights since 9/11 may be related to the control concerns that these events have caused among the ruling elite.) -Allan
