I'm no expert on the subject, and I'd be happy to learn from those 
who know more about it.  One thing I do know about it is that a 
number of women came out and created a new space for dissent: Las 
Madres de Plaza de Mayo in Argentina, Women in Black in Israel and 
elsewhere.  We do weekly Women in Black vigils every Friday, 5-6 PM, 
at the corner of 15th Ave. and High St. in Columbus, OH; one of the 
regular participants is an exile from Argentina, whose husband was 
arrested and imprisoned during the Dirty War.  The Columbus Women in 
Black did a vigil to commemorate 9.11.01 as well.
