I look for the dynamics & ramifications of social revolution to neutralize any threats from the Al Qaeda movement to the social revolution. I do not consider Al Qaeda Islamist or Islamic fundamentalist, I consider Al Qaeda Moslem extremists. & I consider the Al Qaeda movement an extremist movement that happens to be made up of Moslems. On a individual/personal basis I share the marginalization, disenfranchisement, alienation, isolation & repression which is typical of a Al Qaeda member. In a more general sense a question is how to protect a social revolution from non state extremism, which goes to the structure of social revolution, & that these concerns are at the fore of social revolution. We are careful how we interact with each other, we are careful with whom we interact, & we are careful where we interact with each other. I want to build on all of this. I will use myself as a example, I do what I can in a practical sense to support this social justice work, & in social justice activists working with me as a focal point of this work. This makes for social, political, & structural security, as these are the parameters in which I work. Beyond this we have to look at what conventional security structure best suit us, which is a defensive security posture. I put forth a non-technical focus on human security capabilities. My focus is on internationalist human rights laws reinforced by universal or natural laws. There has been a historical domestic reversal of race, where now a segment of the white middle class is the most progressive, & there has almost been a historical international reversal of race, where now a segment of the international white working class is among the most progressive. This is one of the broadest opposition fronts, along with the Arab Spring, Al Qaeda & opposition states, taking a lesson from domestic anti police brutality campaigns. Going forward with public social justice activism is very narrow & very confrontation, & this sort of activism should not be done in isolation, & this activism should not be done without being widely exposed. This makes activism such as sit ins much more difficult, but it also facilitates activism such as walk outs.
