This is a good point. But to try to come at it from a different angle: 
I find I don't necessarily disagree with a lot of the 
Anarchist/anti-globalization movement's criticisms of multinational 
corporations. However, I do struggle with a lot of their tactics, as 
well as their rationalizations for violent protests. Unfortunately, I 
think their message gets lost with most people because of the way many 
in the they (meaning certain Anarchists) choose to demonstrate it.

Oh, and I found a well-written weblog from a revolutionary who is 
following the events in Genoa:

Guess it's back to work,
