Comment to the critic "Reclaim Power" demo on COP 15

Depend from the point of view. Yes, from the physical point of view we field. It was expected. They have guns,equipment,laws etc.and we have just our self and bare hands.But we have also determination and knowledge that there is no other way that victory and one day capitalism/system have to fall in order to save the planet/future etc. So those days would come. We will bring them, because that what the history and next generation are expecting from us.
From the other point's.COP 15 protest's wasn't just battle for Bella Centre, but many other successful actions like 100.000 demo "System change Not Climate Change" or described by You "No Borders"Demo and other more or less successful actions.
Even "Reclaim Power" was success if You look beyond the police line. Official negotiations failed,all the world get to know that there is conflict, that "green capitalism" that just another green wash with fake solutions. Many politicians, scientists, ngo's,delegate's took our side by living the negotiations. Our people were inside and they expressed our demands to the world. The police violence towards activists and delegates is just showing to the world real face of "democracy". We, tausends of people met together, act together, talk to each other, made contact, connections, exchange experiences, tried the best...
For me the biggest victory what we achieved that this that we reclaimed our life. For me that was the one of the most active,productive,inspiring,mobilising 10 days in my life.
We learn a lot and next time would be better. The Climate Justice movement is young, but the situation is expecting from us that we will grow up very quickly not just with numbers but also with the quality and variety of tactics. Of course, we still have to learn a lot, of course we are making mistakes...but we should never give up. They can bit us, spray us, arrest us, but they can never conquer us because it's about our common future.

"Are we serious?
This was my first, and quite possibly last, international summit protest."
You answered Yourself clearly

"The point is that you can't cobble together satyagraha in a few days. Reading the history of the Gandhian movement in India, or, say, the civil rights movement in the US, what can impress even more than the achievements was the process -- dedication, preparation, psychological and organisational training -- involved."
Exactly. We had together with people who we didn't know, with different point of views,tactics, we had to manage something in few days.
You didn't even boder to come for a meeting to said Your proposal of strategy.
 "Gandhi talked of the satyagrahis as a well-disciplined "army". Even when practised on a small scale, non-violent direct action that puts bodies at stake calls for serious discipline -- cf. the intense training of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) before the freedom rides and lunch counter actions. As for successful civil disobedience on a mass scale, it's as rare as unicorns -- indeed many of Gandhi's attempts collapsed or broke down into plain old fashioned riots"
So look at that as process(There is no way to freedom. Freedom is the way)
For me it was big step in the building of the movement on many surfaces. To compare "Friends Of The Earth"spend a lot of money to spread their message, we with small budget "Reclaim Power" achieved much more that can be expected. Never Give up!
