What If You Held An Anti-War Rally And Nobody Came?
It’s tough getting people to show up to an anti-war rally in North Dakota.
I suspect that it’s getting tougher to get people to show up at rallies against the war in Iraq in general these days. With it looking more and more like the war is going to conclude with Iraq being a sovereign and democratic US ally where there was once an oppressive, terror-sponsoring, belligerent rogue state - and with the media unable to find many negative stories about the war to sensationalize - the entire anti-war movement just seems a bit pointless, doesn’t it?
After all, it’s hard to indict Bush as some sort of monstrous, bigoted war monger when by all appearances Bush is going to leave office with Iraq and the middle east in general in a lot better shape than it was when he entered office.
