They have narrow view of human nature and are practically psychotic in their belief that if you refuse to fight, war will end. That surrender and enslavement, and even death, is preferable to fighting for anything.

"War is an ugly thing, but it is not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made so by the exertions of better men than himself." -- John Stuart Mill    

"Where the choice is between only violence and cowardice, I would advise violence." - Gandhi

"I would risk violence a thousand times rather than risk the emasculation of a whole race." - Gandhi

The only thing they risk violence for is the destruction of "capitalist America" -- they were heavily involved in the WTO riots in Seattle (they were a main planning location for the anarchist violence at that event).
