The only purpose of this article seems to be to associate non-violent movements with (potentially) vioolent ones, and to associate the federation of labour with the anarchists.

It's a cheap and despicable tactic that very much misrepresents the scope and scale of opposition to world corporate government. Thousands of groups - not just an handful - represent the opposition to corporate globalization, and cherry-picking a handful is yellow journalism at its worst.

Known by the company they keep.

I'm pleased that those 3 old loonies who firebombed a bank to protest are being dragged through the courts right now.
