-Caveat Lector-
My strong suspicion, based on personal experience during the peace movement
years of the Sixties and early Seventies, is that elements both in the US
government and in the transnational business community have decided that the
anti-WTO movement represents a major threat to their hegemony, and therefore
must be discredited. In any mass demonstration like the events in Seattle,
no matter how strongly its organizers are to nonviolence, there will
inevitably be some idiots who feel compelled to resort to violence to make
their point. And just as surely, there are also provocateurs ready to
encourage the violence and fan the flames. The Oligarchy can deal with
violence. It *knows* violence, and it knows how to meet violence with
violence. *Non*violence is much more of a threat, especially when it
includes parallel institutions. To quote *Illuminatus!*,
They nailed Love to a cross,
Symbolic of their might.
But Love was undefeated--
It simply didn't fight.

frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
