[Seattle-editorial] hiding and Erasing from Cache.....

[anarch3m]

Though this issue was worth all being aware of.  Its over, the solution was "temporary"  but it is a precedent.  

Do we, Sea Ed collective, have interest in making a response, as per thius was good, this was wrong, this is a good way for the future...??

In other words, let me know if their are any "issues" this brings up as to being amenable to ..ah, i think the word here is , again, SOLIDARITY.  Does this resonate or not with our free open wire position?

Hey Kevin what do you think of running a global feature on this? It's a
tricky issue. We don't want it to be an attack against greenpeace, but at
the same time it's important to look at the way some ngo's run them selves
in the same evil ways of the corporations we are fighting.

For those of you who don't know, you can read the feature on the 
ontario
site at http://ontario.indymedia.org/

in solidarity,
evan
