peace is a product of war, when fighting a enemy that use woman and children has sheilds on the battle front peace is the farthest thing in thier minds so we must do whats neccessary to keep ours
WOW, did you guys come up with that "Give Peace a Chance"?song.....how original. Go take a shower,wanna be hippies. Your 9:55 min are up. God help us if Clinton or Obama get to the White House.
I want you to realise something it's fine and dandy to have an opposing veiw point thats the beauty of democracy. Our generation has never faced what our grandfathers had to we have been thrust into a global war. The honorable president bush has to live with the deaths of our troops how do you think he feels sending our troops to die for a worthy cause of a better world.
damn that really sucks that i missed this, but on the other hand i remember when it was 2003 and how much i wished you guys would've done something then
i would but i don't own a 5,000 pa system, i don't run a network of hundreds of people, and i don't have any connections to regionally famous preachers. if i DID, you can bet this demonstration would have happened in 2004
That's OK, "something" could be as small as forwarding information or not backing down when you're faced with the usual warmonger rhetoric. You have to counter it with the truth. There are a lot of people who are afraid of speaking out and when somebody does, they feel a little more comfortable with voicing their own opinion. Calling Senators and Representatives on a regular basis is a good start. Your frustration is shared by many of us - just let it out. Thanks for what you can do.
I'm not one of the "why bother with activism it's all pointless" types but with something that takes place at such a high level as war do you think letters/phone calls really matter? They're probably looking more to opinion polls to see if they can get away with it without causing civil war than paying attention to the activist community right? The New York protests set records & got almost no media coverage. (looking more for encouragement than argument if you're wondering)
Me, too. Calls and letters to your representatives do matter. Especially if they get a lot. They can't ignore them. I'm in the Viet Nam generation and didn't have a clue till my husband got drafted and went over there. It ruined him mentally for a while. I got active and went to my first march in DC in 1971 and was amazed that so many were against the war when everybody at home was so pro-war. If they push us into Iran we'll be seeing the draft again - you can just about bet on it.
LOL you should've seen the support the troops "rally" back in 2003 --we're a very conservative town and there were like 8 people shouting on Roan Street..
Wow look at all the hippies.Maybe you should Learn freedom isn't Free. Wait til another attack happens and you'll see, but same thing happened right after 9/11, once we were everyone was all lets go get them! But after the war(war being war on terror, which includes Iraq) goes on for so many years, morale goes down. You peace activist may think love can cure all, but simple fact is, Love does not stop bombs.
the attack happenend why? because 1. our goverment is corrupt as hell and would benefit from it happenend
2. numerous warnings went left unanswered
3. our help to israel.
Now we kill innocent people and think we're creating freedom? you mean creating terroists for tomorrow. the london bombings the madrid bombings etc etc all happenend because of IRAQ.people will always want revenge, your not macho to think bombs is the answer ur dumb
Is the Taliban for peace? Is Iran for peace?Peace rallies do nothing but encourage and embolden terrorists. You must fight for peace, it doesn't come for free. Oh, and by the way, we tried giving peace a chance. The Taliban and Saddam said "NO". Wake up liberals and help save your country, terrorists will kill you just as fast. They DO NOT CARE!!! Peace is a dream unless you are willing first to fight for it. Help us defeat this AMERICAN enemy and then you can truly enjoy peace.
This isn't about the Taliban. This is about US. This war has as much to do with the Taliban as the color I painted my bathroom. It has to do with our "leadership" wanting to make massive fortunes for themselves and their cronies. Talk about someone who DOESN'T CARE!!!! You do not make peace with bombs, other than the peace that will be when we have destroyed each other and our selves. Peace IS a dream, but this war is a nightmare.
The Islamic fundamentalists, including the Taliban, declared war on us years ago. A fact of simple observation. Under Clinton, he did nothing when the USS Cole was attacked and killed 17 of our American sailors, the '93 Trade Center attack, the U.S. Embassies in Africa, etc. President Bush is the only one who has stood up to this evil. Remember 9/11. We will defend ourselves with or without you.
Wow, that seemed a little abusive. My prior post gave you the facts of several events and you call me ignorant. I thought liberals beat the drum of tolerance? I guess only if you agree with their viewpoint. Are you sure I'm ignorant? I wonder why Sandy Berger stole/destroyed classified documents from the National Archives and then refused to take a lie detector test about it. You may want to stop watching Communist News Network (CNN). They certainly aren't going to push this story.
Who would Jesus kill??? How about you to start with. The question is who would your friends "the muslims" kill'"???
