Damn, if Doug doesn't understand, then I'm optimistic that the cops
won't be able to figure this out.

Doug, I know there are many hard-working and effective organizations in
this movement. Most of us understand how they work. What I'm alluding to
is the decentralized network that disseminates news and information
quickly. This network also makes organizing fairly cheap. One of its
names is the Internet, but it has other manifestations. The best example
of how this network works was manifested on June 18, 1999, when actions
against capitalism ocurred in dozens of cities around the world,
catching the capitalists and police asleep.

INTERNATIONALISM IN PRACTICE

An American soldier in a hospital explained how he was wounded: He said,
"I was told that the way to tell a hostile Vietnamese from a friendly
Vietnamese was to shout ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ If he shoots, he’s
unfriendly. So I saw this dude and yelled ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’
and he yelled back, ‘To hell with President Johnson!’ We were shaking
hands when a truck hit us."
