Thank you for this article. It is extremely helpful to call out those that are siding with the war bringers and sustainers. Yes, moveon is playing a dangerous game at the expense of the deaths of hundreds of US troops and tens of thousands of Iraqi deaths. They are a thorn in the side of progress. They muddy the waters, and keep their members in the dark. OK, maybe it's not completely dark with all those candles. While traditional faxing and calling reps is still needed, here is an alternative to holding a candle in the wind: The Occupation Project - a campaign of sustained nonviolent civil disobedience to end any additional funding of the war http://vcnv.org/project/the-occupation-project and an analysis that is similar to what is offered here by Sheldon Rampton and John Stauber by a person with the Occupation Project. http://vcnv.org/node/794 And here is a link to a video of a recent "haunting" action that constitutes what I believe will become a next step taken by a small but highly dedicated portion of antiwar groups: Video: Protest Targets Representative Ehlers' Support of the Iraq War http://www.mediamouse.org/features/031907video.php
