This article makes a very interesting point-that we are fighting against an evil so extreme that we can no longer afford to fight each other. That's why my own policy on ANSWER actions is hold my nose, watch my back, but show up anyway.
When we call out the WWP on its problems, we should do it in private and away from the media unless they trash us first or try something even worse like siccing the cops on us(which has NOT happened in this campaign. If they are not team players, no problem-we show up under our own organizational structure, doing something like the feeder march-but EVERYONE supports mobilization on that day and time because to stay away can be interpreted by the capitalists as voting for the GOP over the WWP.
Since it is the GOP that is willing to risk nuclear and biological war with Iraq, we have to be willing to risk working with less than trustworthy groups that none the less can get the turnout, making our own arrangements for dealing with emergencies and simply rejecting without going to the press any criticism of the separate structure coming from ANSWER's bosses.
I seriously doubt that when the black bloc was surounded by Ramsey's goons during the Counterinaugural that the were bothered by having the Democratic-party(even lesss reliable than the WWP)controlled Votermarch surround the cops and grant them victory. On that day, ANY enemy of Bush was a friend, and the same is true in the streets during a major test of wills between the war and its opponents.
No, I don't like the WWP's politics, and I don't trust them to keep any kind of secret or cover my backside, but BUSH and his capitalist backers are the main enemy.
