Thanks for those Ghandi quotes Ian, very interesting. Jensen's as well. Wrt armed resistance in the west, it seems to me that Murray is dealing in abstractions that have no relevance for the actual world, one in which the state's capacity for lethal and non-lethal violence, subversion, coercion and surveillance has no historical precedent. I think Hedges, who is no pacifist, is much better on these issues, and he's reported from the ground on uprisings, revolutions and mass movements all over the world.
