I think the anti-capitalist movements understand the difference between tactics and strategy. There were plenty of black blockers at last night's anti-AIPAC demo, yet they didn't do anything confrontational. Of course, the cops got real nervous whenever small groups of them walked down Connecticut Ave. [which almost got me arrested]
After Genoa, a group of us anarchists in D.C. decided that we had to make some adjustments for the late September protests against the World Bank meetings. This prompted us to organize an occupation of D.C. General Hospital, which was the last public hospital in D.C. before being closed down.
Of course, 9-11 really fucked up our plans. :-(

"...ironically, perhaps, the best organised dissenters in the world today are anarchists, who are busily undermining capitalism while the rest of the left is still trying to form committees."
