CSPAN said there was only a couple of thousand anti war/troop protestors......
Those are all noble causes!
If Group A attacks Group B, A should be arrested and charged with assault.Originally posted by Cherokee:
Group A attacks group B.
Group B beats the dogchit out of group A.
Group A screams "LOOK! They want to kill us because were Muslims" while sending people strapped to the gills with explosives to blow up a bus.
Yep that’s noble alright…

Now the speaker is talking about ending the occupation of Palestine...What the **** does that have to do with the war in Iraq?
Do you see the signs saying "9-11 was an inside job," ? These people are ****ing nuts, I wanted to choke that terrorist supporting bitch who was talking about the so called occupation of Palestine, someone ought to tell her that Palestine is a fictional land kind of like Oz, which was made up by Islamic Fascists to excuse their murder of Jews.
If it was about oil why aren't we getting any?
Well lets see.....who did all the contracts go to. Certainly not the Iraqi people. Isn't it their oil. Oh...I see ....the obscene profits go to the oil conglomerates.
Can you provide a link (Not moveon.org or Michael Moore) where we are taking oil from the Iraqis?
Oh and as far as the haliburton thing goes your hero Slick Willie hired the same people for the Balkans and they are still there...........Maybe it was becasue Haliburton is the only company that could actually do the job.....:roll:
Come up with some new talking points will you.............The Oil and Haliburtons ones are old and stale........
The key words in this whole shebazz are "anti-war groups".
Seems to me that any intelligent person would want to know who these people are, what they stand for and who they represent before throwing in their own support. Would people join a rally organized by the kkk? How about Nambla or Peta or any other group with extreme agendas?
In the case of the anti-war movement, the main organizer of the movement is a hate group that goes by the name of A.N.S.W.E.R. This hate group is so virulent that it refuses to allow Jewish speakers to speak if they so much as support anything short of the complete annihiliation of Israel. It's leaders are openly supportive of Hamas and Hizb'allah, and it is just a front group for the WWP and it's wacko uberleftistists who are in bed with Ilamists only because they both hate the same people. A.N.S.W.E.R rallies aren't just about opposing the war. They are about supporting those who are warring against us, and that is the key element in whether or not poeple should support them.
THis current anti-war movement is not just about opposing war. The message isn't just "get our men and women home". It would be an honorable thing if it were, and although many here see the world in such binary that they cannot distinguish between the two stances, if the movement were more like the movement in the middle sixties -- grass roots and concentrating on just its stated purpose -- then it would be worth respecting even if one did not agree with the stance. Sure,there were notable exceptions then like Jane Fonda, and Noam Chomsky, but Chomsky was obscure and not influential, and most in the antiwar movement were as appalled by Fonda as those supporting the war. By and large, The anti-war movement in the sixties was not about supporting the Viet Kong or communism -- it was about bringing our troops home, a large percentage of whom were conscripted against their will, and so they would stop dying for a war that had going on for years and with no clear exit strategy or well defined purpose.
There is a big difference between not supporting a war and supporting those with whom we are at war, and today's antiwar movement has crossed that lline that separates the two positions. Just look at who organizes the rallies and the rhetoric on the signs being waved about (like the one Cherokee showed). It's a rally for a whole panoply of positions rather than just one, and in the process, people are rallying for the destruction of Israel, the support of Islamist terror, and all the other positions being promoted by those who stage the rallies.
Again, would people rally for the KKK? THe term "useful idiot" really does come to mind here, because A.N.S.W.E.R has an agenda that isn't just anti-war. It's anti-American.
Thats funny....Palestine is a made up Country....and I suppose that you think Israel is not?
I'm sorry, did you say something?Originally posted by Cherokee;

I watched the whole thing and I did not see one American Flag.......
They did not have one creditable person there..Just the usual hate mongers and far left whackos.......
I did see on picture of the podium and they did have an American Flag there, I haven't seen any in the crowd but stand to be corrected.
Another completely untrue and unvalidated post that contains zero evidence to back up your rancid accusations.As usual the anti war/America crowd sides with enemies of this country. They don't know a terrorist they don't admirer and support, esp if their main target is Americans.
