	Antiwar_Movement
		The antiwar movement against Vietnam in the US from 1965-1971 was the most significant movement of its kind in the nation's history.
		This movement against the Northern bombings, and domestic critics in general, played a role in the decision to announce a bombing pause from May 12 to the 17, of 1965.
		One problem of the antiwar movement was the difficulty of finding ways to move beyond protest and symbolic acts to deeds that would actually impede the war.

		In Alex Cockburn’s Counterpunch, John Walsh complains that United for Justice and Peace, the old-line leftie antiwar umbrella organization, excluded anyone hostile to the Democratic party from the platform of its latest (and smallest) Washington demonstration.
		It is this playpen atmosphere that keeps the “official” organized antiwar movement almost comically irrelevant.
		It seems to me that utilizing the information superhighway — and the apparently massive antiwar sentiment out there that the “official” movement never even thinks to reach — is the key to developing new paradigms of protest.

	Report on the American Antiwar Movement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The march was large—some 20 to 30 thousand—and the antiwar movement was solidified on the basis of non-exclusion, self-determination for Vietnam, and mass action; and it was launched by a section of the student movement breaking from the tutelage of reformism.
		Antiwar sentiment had expanded considerably and combined with the efforts of the antiwar movement, the effect by Thanksgiving, 1966, was to convince more of the old line peace groups to participate in and mobilize for antiwar action.
		April 15 was a demonstration by the antiwar movement of the breadth of mass opposition to the war and the possibility of organizing it.

	SWP: The American Antiwar Movement (August 1969) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The antiwar movement has been a critical factor in the growth of these social conflicts, for the mass character of the antiwar actions enables them to affect broad layers of the masses and spur protests among youth, GIs, labor, and the fl movement.
		Our central tasks in the antiwar movement are to continue to build the mass antiwar demonstrations that are dealing hammer blows to American imperialism and to recruit from the growing numbers that have begun to move in a radical direction as a result.
		Although the main weight of the antiwar movement continues to center in the civilian population, the opposition to the war which has developed within the present conscript army has added a new and extremely important political dimension to the forces involved in the fight against the imperialist war-makers.

	International Socialist Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The antiwar movement, rather than forcing the issue of the war onto the table, permitted Kerry to take it off the table, thus narrowing the political debate on the war to one over how to pursue the war and not whether or not to oppose it.
		The damage done by the hawkish Kerry campaign, however, was augmented by the fact that the antiwar movement for the most part ceded the public stage to Kerry, willingly giving ground on the issues of occupation and the war on terror.
		The primary responsibility of the antiwar movement is to remove the occupation so that the people of Iraq have the same rights any other people should to determine what their lives, their society, and their government look like, free of bombs, bullets and American dictates.

	The Anti-war Movement is Not Progressive -- And Thats a Good Thing
		The range of antiwar opinion is reflected in the scope of the lies that the administration, with its Republican and Democrat and media allies, felt compelled to deploy to justify war.
		To attempt to fit the antiwar movement with a particular candidate or party with a progressive agenda is to limit its appeal, undermine its power, and fail to realize its democratic potential.
		The antiwar movement should focus not on candidates but on the underlying decency of the vast majority of Americans and their moral superiority to the ruling, war-making class.

	The Antiwar Movement Takes Shape
		Today, the movement still barely has room for Ed Hamm, yet the guy pulled $170,000 out of his pocket and used it to make one of the most radical condemnations of the drive to war to be heard anywhere, if by “radical” we mean fundamental and not merely frenzied.
		This is the one opening that could fuel the antiwar movement and give it the broad character it needs to spike the neoconservative project of an all-out global war against the Muslim world.
		Among the antiwar left-liberals, the UN has the status of a sacred totem: it is the deus ex machina of their little morality play, always an unconvincing plot device that may necessitate a surprise ending.

	Who Will Lead?
		An antiwar movement is stirring -- an overdue fact and a necessary one, as the Bush crowd lick their chops and the odds of war with Iraq rise by the minute, against reason, against allies, against American doubts.
		What a smart movement could do is put out the markers, create the organizational networks, and establish the foundation on which a more substantial antiwar movement might later be built.
		The leadership of the current antiwar movement is building a firebreak around itself, turning the movement toward the bitter-end orthodoxy of the Old Left and away from the millions of Americans whose honest concerns and ambivalence might fuel it.

	International Socialist Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		To be sure, the movement as a whole as yet lacks a clear framework for building opposition to the coming war on Iraq, and—formally, at least—is politically to the right of last year’s movement.
		By definition, therefore, the movement must be open to all opponents of the war, and it must be genuinely democratic—representing all the forces involved in building it.
		The antiwar movement is still in its early stages—as is the “war without end” that Bush and Co. have pledged to carry out against the rest of the world.

		The international antiwar movement will look to the U.S. for allies--and we would be judged harshly if we were to ignore the Palestinian struggle.

	Swans Commentary: A Plea To The US Antiwar Movement, by Joe Davison - joedav11
		It is not enough to have a movement comprised mainly of activists and adherents involved as a result of moral choice, important as that involvement is. At a certain stage a strong, determined, and coherent movement requires people who are involved as a result of material necessity.
		During the Vietnam War the left wing of the US antiwar movement succeeded in pulling the entire movement left, supporting unequivocally the National Liberation Front (NLF) and successfully linking the war with the fl struggle that was raging at home.
		As such it is high time that the US antiwar movement came to their aid with more than the usual tired round of permitted marches and demos which offer little except a temporary palliative to the consciences of those taking part.

	Mainstreaming the Antiwar Movement?
		It was at the time of the October 26 antiwar rally in Washington--where tens of thousands of demonstrators heard speakers oppose war against Iraq and demand the destruction of capitalism, the end of Zionism, the liberation of convicted cop-killers Mumia Abu-Jamal and Jamil Al-Amin (a.k.a.
		So it was no surprise that the antiwar message--which, according to polls, resonates with at least one-third of Americans--was accessorized with the demands of the fringe far-left.
		There may not be enough time to derail precipitous US action, but before the antiwar movement even has a shot at preventing or curtailing a US first-strike, it must grow much larger.
