Chuck,

Yes, even Doug Henwood was impressed with the Eugene anarchists.
http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Seattle.html


"Yesterday's Seattle Times had an article on the delegation of
anarchists
from Eugene, Oregon, who are being blamed for most of the violence. The
Eugenians - playing the always-useful role of outside agitators -
published
a manifesto denouncing the unions and NGOs protesting the WTO as "part
of
the glue holding a rotting order together. It's time to create a new
world
from the ashes after the ruined one. Fight back and don't get caught."
And
they didn't; almost all the arrestees were doing nothing violent, while
the
window-smashers seem to have skipped town unhindered. Before leaving,
though, the Eugene anarchists amazingly flattened the tires of eight
police
cars and spray-painted them with the circled A that symbolizes
anarchism.
Doing that takes amazing nerve; getting away with it is stunning."
