A sad and pitiful sidelight for anyone who doesn’t already know — Kathy Boudin had an infant son at the time she went to jail for the murderous Brinks robbery, Chesa Boudin. He was then raised by Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn to carry on the next generation of communist revolution. So far he seems to have stayed out of terrorist activities (so far as we know) but he is a fervent propagandist for the cause. He has even written a book proclaiming the greatness of Hugo Chavez. Somehow he was awarded a prestigious Rhodes scholarship, by a committee headed by a U. of Chicago Prof. of ConLaw, which makes me very curious about the interralationships of that guy with Obama, Dohrn, and Ayers:

Chesa Boudin has said of the activities of his four parents, “We have a different name for the war we’re fighting now. Now we call it the war on terrorism; then they called it the war on communism. My parents were all dedicated to fighting U.S. imperialism around the world. I’m dedicated to the same thing.”
There is an excellent, well written piece of emphasis on that in this press release from the March 8th Times Square protest. There was also a message board we were all following excerpted below it:
http://blog.newyorkcitycommunity.us/2008/03/06/gathering-of-eagles-times-square-march-8.aspx
For immediate release: TIMES SQUARE March 8
The Gathering of Eagles, a patriotic organization dedicated to the public support of all Military persons, active duty or veteran, announces a patriotic rally in front of the Times Square Recruiting Station in New York City, NY on March 8 from 1PM to 4PM.
The Police have allowed us a rally at the Times Square Recruiting Station Island, 43rd Street and Broadway, to hold a patriotic rally as a show of encouragement for our troops and our recruiters in New York City.
The action of trying to destroy public property and place the lives and safety of Americans in jeopardy just to make a political point must be answered with the firmest response from Patriotic Americans. In times past, these actions were considered abnormal and best ignored. The actions and national responses to the bombings and protests of the 1960’s and early 1970’s and the failure of Americans to rise up and demand an accounting of those who engage in criminal acts under the false banner of FREE SPEECH led to a national embarrassment at the end of the Vietnam War, and eventually to a Military pullout and subsequent deaths of a Million People when the North Vietnamese broke the Paris Peace Accord treaty and invaded South Vietnam in 1975.
This criminal action against the recruiting station in Times Square has the potential of leading a national downturn in the minds of those who disagree with the war.
It is imperative that Patriotic Americans demand a show of force by law enforcement and Patriotic Groups in calling these acts what they are: cowardice and criminal.

If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves. WINSTON CHURCHILL

I want you to read what Jame Bancroft wrote again in his above press release, please.
Now, below I have pasted chatter of this event from an anti war/lefty message board. If any press people or investigative type people want the URLs of these messages, I will gladly provide them. I don’t want the URLs on my blog though so I’m omitting them.
This is how they view the bombing of the recruiting station and they are calling for more events:
Copy:
More results of the bomb blast
I got into work this morning and someone was playing the radio. Bloomberg was giving a speech about how our armed forces were protecting us, and protecting our
AmeriKKKan freedoms and so forth. After the billionaire finished his propaganda statements via the corporate conrolled radio station, pig commissioner Kelly came on and I then perked up. He was looking for rats to come forward and finger the male (according to them) who early this morning placed a bomb at the Times Square Armed Forces recruiting statement and who then buzzed away on his bicycle.
News also reports that the police began stopping cars around New York and questioning the drivers...no, I am just kidding. The news does actually report that police began stopping those beatnik, gas-hating people riding bicycles this morning and questioning them.
Unlike the bombs the US Armed Forces drops on brown people around the world, this bomb hurt no one. It just makes our Keystone Kops and the “FBI New York Joint Terrorism Task Force” look silly, incompetent and impotent. The boys in blue will be scratching their heads and downing their donuts trying to crack this caper for some time to come I’m sure.

It was ONE station in ONE city and got minimal coverage.. And the coverage it did get was places next to what’s happening with insugency in Iraq. This paired along with the arrest of the fellow in AZ with ricin or whatever... Does this help or hurt? I will suffice to say remember the Paris commune.
I agree, property distruction is not violence, but please- if you are going to destroy I just hope your doing more then traveling around the country in box cars. Community devopment needs good heads. We need people working with youth and creating sustainable co-ops to do it- transience doesn’t help. Prostesting doesn’t help.
Community development does, talking to your neighbors and organizing in your primary area and maintaining relationships does.
The pump don’t work..

“It was ONE station in ONE city and got minimal coverage..”
Wonder how much corporate media coverage the M19-20 protests will get?
Meanwhile, loose lips sink ships.
