Throughout Europe unholy alliances are being set up which are being coordinated by the misnamed International Socialist grouping. In Britain the so-called Stop the War Coalition presents itself as the organisers of the biggest march in British history whilst at the same time having on its platforms open defenders of the capitalist system, albeit Keynesian and not so Keynesian representatives in the era of declining global imperialism. The likes of the leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jesse Jackson (Democtas USA) and Ken Livingstone parading on anti-war platforms is extremely nauseating when in fact they each in turn supported the bombardment of ex-Yugoslavia.

In Greece the Stop the War brigade allied itself with the ex-Eurostalinists of Sinaspismos who also had a despicable position on Yugoslavia. The fact that the globalists of the SWP have no other policy than to straightjacket the movement back into normal bourgeois politics shows they have absolutely no politics other than further globalism. In response to millions who want another world the SWP offers the existing one with bankrupt bourgeois politicians as 'crowd pleasers' when in reality faced with the oncoming conflict the aim is to silence the militant left, from spreading militancy.
