I suppose it's one thing to be part of an anti-globalization riot, where you are lost in the mass of rock-throwing mask-wearing anonymity. But when the media focus is like a laser-beam, then anarchists get nervous.

The Suicide Pilots, the band for which Jeff Monaghan plays the drums, has issued a statement.

Main Story

The statement appeared today just before lunch:

The Suicide Pilots Official Statement

The Suicide Pilots do not promote or condone terrorism or violence in any way shape or form whether it is in protest or otherwise.

www.thesuicidepilots.com will be back up and running soon.
