To this regard, the analysis on the video podcasts of Electronic Intifada, particularly of John Elmer, on the actual war between Israel and the Palestinian resistance is very helpful. One can get a sense of the way the resistance has built an infrastructure (through its sophisticated tunnel system and utilization of the bombed out terrian, etc.) to continue to fight and put out timely propaganda, and totally maintain its functional capacity 76 days into the war. Through this analysis, one can imagine the types of urban resistance infrastructure that urban movements in our local metropolises can start to think about as the political situation leads to further polarization, breakdown, and crisis. Check out this video for an example, particularly the second hour.
