Dear Yannis,

Given that I saw you lead the attack on the anti-war contingent on Saturday, 
this is a subject on which you would have been well advised to keep silent. 
Why weren't you and your so-called 'safeguards' protecting the front of the 
demo from the police rather than punching women and knocking down people 
like Petros?

                            Best wishes,
                            Alex Callinicos
