The video appears to be clickable from the very top of the UK IMC website, labelled reports 1 and 2 ...
See item marked: Update 5:50 GMT First video reports [report 1 | [report 2] ... they are the same item ... the system was reporting that the file had failed to upload, so I uploaded it twice.

Who knows where things will go, but you have nothing to gain from not speaking out and keeping a positive attitude.
I sometimes think about the anti-nuclear activists in the 1980s. Those folks started out in tiny numbers. But eventually, there were more than 1 million people in Central Park at the biggest event and the movement had an impact. Yes, the world is still as nuts as it was then -- in different ways. But it had an impact then and the movement is coming back, now that the United States has an open doctrine of global empire (believe it or not, open debate about "our" empire is now in the US media from time to time). Part of that "neo-conservative" doctrine includes the insanity of first strike tactical nuclear weapons planning and total domination of space by the US. So, the vanguard over here is really beginning to see how war-driven the US system is and is slowly organizing.
It doesn't take more than 10% of any national population to have a major impact and create substantial change. With the way things are going in the US (the repression that people will eventually begin to understand and the fact that megacorporation capitalism and organized crime politics are whacking the middle class), I wouldn't be surprised to see 10% or more of the American population mad as hell in a year or two, and that's going to bring a dialectical process of change, whatever the "synthesis" will be is unknown as of yet, but things are definitely in a state of flux and ripe for improvement. The movement may not be strong enough in time to stop military action against Iraq, but the movement is growing, and it's going to address the even bigger issue of US policy on global empire.
Violence (the probable subtext of your comment) is not a logical option (sorry to all you folks on the FAR left, but "the state" is just way to big and 100% non-violence WILL WORK).
