No War But The Class War

No War But The Class War (NWBTCW) has been used as the name for a number of anti-authoritarian[?], anti-capitalist groups. This name originated as a parody of the Muslim saying "There is no God but God".

The first NWBTCW group appeared in London during the 1990-1991 Gulf War. The group dissolved after the war stopped.

The second NWBTCW group appeared in London during the 1999 Kosovo War. This to dissolved after the war stopped.

NWBTCW#3 group appeared in London following the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in October 2001. Efforts, particularly by the Communist Workers' Organisation[?], to turn this into a network of groups across England failed. It transmuted itself into the No War But The Class War Discussion Group which dwindled away to nothing.

The name was taken up by a group in the San Francisco Bay Area. This was endorsed by the Anarchist-Communists of Berkeley[?], the International Makhnovist Support Apparatus of the Einsteinist Tendency[?], Kevin Keating[?]'s Mission Yuppie Eradication Project[?], the Black Hat Bloc[?], the Aufheben Reading Circle[?], Provos Action[?], and the Internationalist Communist Group[?].

No War But The Class War has been a slogan used by people not necessarily linked to any of these groups.
