Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the point of a public demonstration to be seen so your message gets out? Wouldn't obstruction end up being counterproductive in that goal? I suppose there's an argument to be made that causing irritation might convince some to acquiesce to alleviate the irritation, which might work for domestic or local issues, but is less than useless when it comes to foreign policies. If anything, people are becoming antagonistic to the protests due to negative coverage. If you can make yourself look like the victim instead of an agitator, that'd go much further in your goals.
