>From what I hear, no one has really identified the small cadre of persons
dressed in black who began the looting and pillaging, although some reports
say that they were 'anarchists'. If someone knows otherwise, please post
the info.
It is not unheard of for agitators to plant themselves into a protest for
the purpose of agitating a nonviolent action into a violent one, and
thereby destroying the credibility of the organizers. I hope that has not
happened here, because the WTO leadership had actually invited some of the
protesters to meetings during the sessions.
