Out in Berkeley, California the city government is trying to run the Marine recruiting office out of the city. Code Pink has been illegally blocking the entrance to the Marine office. Last Tuesday there was a peaceful protest by citizens supporting the Marines. The World Can't Wait organization, a communist group, recruited high school students to attack and break up the peaceful protest. The Police did not interfere with the attackers.

Below is an excerpt from an article by Kelly-Anne Shiver

World Can't Wait is an organization started in 2005 to actively thwart the American war effort. Its founder, Charles Clark Kissinger, is a Maoist and longtime leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party, who has stated his intention to organize "people living in the United States to take responsibility to stop the whole disastrous course led by the Bush administration." By "disastrous course" he means the war, specifically.


And of course, Code Pink's most visible spokesperson, Medea Benjamin, says her idea of heaven on earth is Castro's Cuba. Benjamin, readers may remember, is the patriotic American who spearheaded the effort in 2004 to hand over $600,000 in cash and supplies to the terrorist "insurgents" in Fallujah, Iraq. Why isn't that an act of treason? I must be too unsophisticated to understand.


So, we shouldn't be surprised when shameful un-American tactics are used by these people, as they were Tuesday in Berkeley.


But when a civil authority, such as the Berkeley Police, stand by while people are abridging the First Amendment rights of other citizens, then there is a huge problem.

Communists such as Charles Kissinger are not pacifists, but rather intend to harm the United States of America, just as the Communists did with the anti-war effort during the Vietnam War.
