Very important progressive argument.

IMO the peace movement must avoid pacifism. That requires articulation of 
appropriate demands for global governance.

Obviously there will be a response to terrorism, and people expect this. 
Therefore the only campaigning strategy that can weaken US hegemonism is 
one that recognises this fact, but proposes a more appropriate global solution.
