Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2011 10:23:02 -0700 To: vfp-israel-palestine@googlegroups.com From: Gordon Sturrock <gs@veteransagainsttorture.com> Subject: [VFP--IP] recommendations re Conference Call Attempting to conduct business over the phone, with no documentation trail and no accountability, is beyond foolish for a group like this. Jack is extremely naive to base his efforts to conduct group business over the phone on the absurd notion that this group is a "normal" group. There is NOTHING normal about this group. As long as the chair's continue their unethical rule, the rule of the "white man" or the "good o'l boys" network (just like the Empire uses), as opposed to a REAL "democracy" which includes "openness" and being "respectful of others", we'll be a COMPROMISED workgroup. Workgroup legitimacy precludes posse tactics on members by biased Chairs as much as it would preclude them by biased Zionist Chairs, or biased Reich Winger Chairs. All members of this group would serve honesty and VFP's general membership better by making sure no "group" statement is released. If such a statement were released, regardless of what it said, it would have greater impact as target for critics than accomplishing anything positive. That doesn't mean the members of this group can't cooperate and continue to contribute towards peace, just that nothing should be in the groups name. If new chairs are fairly elected and they support VFP's Statement of Purpose while being respectful of others, then mabey, this workgroup might actually become something. Until then, we're kind of spinning our wheels here, to some fairly large degree anyway. We can do this forever, or Jack and Eduardo could resign. How many months has this been going on? How long are we willing to wait for this problem to go away? I would recommend that all support for Eduardo and Jack be withheld, until they resign. This list seems to serve fairly well as a sounding board. At least it can claim to be an "open" one on a national basis, a first for VFP National. The bar is pretty low folks. Anyone besides me wondering why? Gordon |
