The Associated Press today reported that the two main groups organizing the antiwar protests on Iraq. ANSWER Coalition and Troops Out Now are associated with the communist World Workers Party.
Of course, some of us have been on to this for a while. Which isn’t to say that these protesters should be silenced or anything like that. But it would be nice if the media let readers, listeners and viewers know that nearly all of these fools who flood the streets to castigate the President and oppose the war spend most of their free time feeding their Che Guevera fetish and being active apologists for totalitarian madmen like Hugo Chavez, Evo Morales and Fidel Castro.
These people aren’t protesting because they think war is wrong, per se. Few of them are pacifists. Rather, they’re protesting because we aren’t fighting a war against the right enemies. Which, in their minds, are corporations and things like that.
