Please, this is just posturing.  Garris has published some excellent material 
on antiwar.com.  It is precisely the fact that very good material was being 
published that seems to have triggered Raimondo's hysteria.  Maybe he will 
succeed in destroying antiwar.com.  On the other hand, maybe he will fail, or 
maybe he will change.  We'll see.  But remember, Raimondo helped create  the 
only website which provided information (admittedly mixed) for hundreds of 
thousands around the world, many of them involved in serious antiwar 
struggle.  It has had material effect.  The range of disagreement, up until 
now, has itself been a strength, for disagreement prompts thought.  

If people are going to be involved in real struggle, whether intellectual 
struggle or various kinds of practical organizing (or intellectual work 
geared to serving the needs of practical organizers, which is how I view my 
work at emperors clothes) then one has to work with people with all sorts of 
ideas with which one might disagree.  Maybe they'll change their ideas.  
Maybe you'll learn something new.  It's a lot healthier than pretending that 
"the left" is going to organize an antiwar movement all by its lonesome.

Best regards,
Jared
