That was dangerously misleading hype.
Guerrillas bear weapons and attack people.
During the Seattle protests, protesters were unarmed and attacked no other human being. The media barely mentioned the peaceful 8,000-person demonstration by representatives of all the world's major religions, or the 60,000 person demonstration by environmentalists, labor, farmers and students. Vastly more importantly, there has been virtually no coverage explaining what all the aspects of world civilization had come together to Seattle to protest. Certainly it wasn't trade. It decides disputes among nations.
