Internationl A.N.S.W.E.R. Plans An Agressive War (be prepared for trouble)

Internationl A.N.S.W.E.R. Plans An Agressive War

By Juan Paxety
Sunday, March 02, 2003

International A.N.S.W.E.R. has set out it's plans for war in support of Saddam Hussein. The organization is a subsidiary of the Workers World Party, a Stalinist group.

ANSWER plans what it calls "An Emergency Convergence on the White House" on March 15th with concurrent marches in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

ANSWER also plans direct action against any US attack on Iraq. It is planning protests for 5PM on the first day of the war (the next day if bombing starts at night) in major US cities. On its web page, ANSWER advises protesters to pick a busy intersection or federal building for the site of each city's protest.

One of the organizers in San Francisco was more specific in a radio interview (NPR Weekend Edition today. There does not appear to be a direct link, but scroll down from  here to the story headed Peace Groups Plan Anti-War Demonstrations.) He says the goal of the protest is to bring down American cities by clogging rush hour traffic and blocking corporate buildings.

One protester says she personally plans to carry along tea and cookies to hand out to motorists stranded in their cars.

O.K. Let me see if I understand this. At 5PM on the first day of the war, I'm going to be in my car trying to drive out Butler Boulevard, which, as always is packed with more cars than it can handle. At the intersection with St. Johns Bluff Road - the location of the University of North Florida, the only place around her I've heard of any anti-war protests - the ANSWER crowd plans to have protesters causing even more congestion problems and stopping me from getting home.

I suppose the protesters will be carrying their "No Blood For Oil" signs and chanting. Feeling empowered by their bold opposition to the war, they decide to surround, scream at and, perhaps, rock an evil SUV. Inside is a Navy wife and her children. The protesters similarly treat a 4WD pick up containing what the protesters view as an ignorant red neck.

Then along comes a protester serving tea and cookies expecting smiles and thanks from the imprisoned motorists. I expect she's more likely to be greeted by pepper spray and firearms.

I predict big trouble unless ANSWER is very careful. Will there be blood in the streets? Will there be treason trials for the survivors, if any?

This is one blogger's reporting and take on the plans of ANSWER in the event of war. I think his prediction of trouble is accurate.

I recommend you go directly to ANSWER's website to see for yourself their emergency protest plans.

i think that answer should be given the opportunity to be human shields here as well. so far as i am concerned, they intend to kill me and my family or, failing that, to take away my liberty.

I am sure that there will be trouble if the protests start up as planned on Day 1 of the war. People will not be in the mood to have protesters in their face as soon as the conflict begins. That's a very jittery time anyway and having large crowds like that is foolish.

And don't you see that that is what they are counting on??? They, the so-called "peace" mongers are not the same..they want the confrontation so they can point the finger at US.

A simultaneous launch of war on their own country kind of says it all

You're right, the organizers of these protests are using people who honestly think they are being good patriots and Americans in their opposition to the war. Most people involved in these protests will follow whatever the organizers tell them to do, not realizing how dangerous it is for them.

Thanks for the heads up.

Bush should act! Clinton didn't give a rats ass for "protocol".

We have delayed acting to assuage Colon Bowels precious State Department's sense of international decorum. All this has done is give................

............the pigsucking Hollywood Leftists, safe behind their gates and security services in their mansions overlooking the Pacific ocean..............

............the evil leftover fetid dregs of the Kommunist movement, both here and abroad............

............the scumbag peacenik leftist Democrats in the US Congress and Senate, who play politics with the lives of the American people and the future of THIS country and our civilization..............

............the selfish, ungrateful back-biting Euro-weenies.............

............the usual constellation of cackling idiots and bureaucrats in the UN............

............time to organize and coordinate their efforts.

THANKS COLIN! You're a real pip.

They're going to "bring down American cities" by blocking one intersection or building?

How long til they realize they represent a tiny fringe element of our community?

The idiots touch my vehicle and there'll be blood, but it won't be for oil!

SUV and Glock - a winning combination!
