Bingo!!
That´s why it is a political quetion as I emphasized here again and
again in my speech:
http://www.irrenoffensive.de/vancouver.htm

Speech at the protest rally against the WFMH on the 22nd of July 2001 in
Vancouver

Our struggle is a political struggle.

It is not a medical struggle,
It is a political struggle,

It is not an economic struggle against a drug industry
It is a political struggle,

It is not a psychological struggle
It is a political struggle

It is not a struggle for better social workers or better doctors.
It is a political struggle

It is necessary to emphasize that it is a political struggle because if
we misunderstand the nature of the struggle, we are likely to attack the
wrong enemy, using inadequate means, attracting hypocrite allies and we
would be unable to make true progress..........(see full speech at the
website above)
