[ Presenting plain-text part of multi-format email ] The anti war movement knows that they will gain nothing from injuring or hurting anyone as part of their protests. Acts of violence never win increase in support from the public. All the marches and protests I have attended have been peaceful. Even with the 2 million on February 15 in London, everyone was well behaved and civil. The government has spent much time and money on preventing terrorism at home. That is why we are told we are going to war. To hunt down terrorists and prevent Iraq becoming 'a supermarket for weapons of mass destruction.' It seems that time and money does not appear to have been effective in securing safety. My view is that pro war MPs using security as a reason for not appearing in public are using a fig leaf for not having to spin the government lies about this war. These MPs are becoming sitting ducks for well informed anti war activists and are being exposed as having little independent thought and reasoning outside of Downing Street propoganda machines. So keep up the good work all you CASI activists! Their spinning is no match for our truth and justice machine.
