-So your criticism is meant to be translated as: your movement won't do -anything, so don't even bother to make one?
My criticism was of the tactics used fighting the Vietnam War, which were largely a failure, so I don't think we should be taking lessons from the SWP's strategy back then.
On the other hand, I have great confidence in our ability to challenge the current war fever, as I wrote. And great confidence in the current new generation of activists to try new better tactics that actually promote positive alternatives, rather than just a "no" strategy.

Execution of what?
