No one that I know really has it in them to protest against the war. People do but it's like a re-enactment of the Anti War movement in the sixties and seventies. Or just private wise-acreing A friend of mine, a veteran of The Vietnam war, was against the whole conflict, he thought we' have Won (in Vietnam) if the Order came through, but instead the joint chiefs of staff screwed around and ultimately blamed their failures on the peace movement. Now-a-days, everyone that questions Bushes authority gets labeled a Hippie, commies or even terrorist. My friend actually joined the peace movement and marched on Washington with thousands of other vets(thats his picture among the thousands in life magazine). The Veterans had legitimate cause for concern; the war was out of hand and men were dying for no apparent reason. After the march My Friend dropped out of the movement. The peaceniks had their own agenda and they were exploiting the former soldiers whom they used as a cover and later spat on. The SDS and other "peace" groups were entirely infiltrated by 'agents provocateur' probably from both the right and the left, with the left trying to steamroller the protest into a larger conflict and the right trying to discredit the Peace movement.


The same exists today, every time a peaceful demonstration gets staged, anarchists show up with their own agenda, and the media show that. what about the masses who showed up here in Florida threatening the lives of the poll workers engaged in the 2000 ballot recount? dont they count as terrorists?
War on terror means war on Violence itself. people are willing to die in this conflict but they will not strike a blow. Other activists protest the Ogliarchy of the Bush family. With their ties to the royals of Europe, this all looks a bit like old grudges dating back to the crusades.

The CIA Director George Tenet has become the unlikely source of embarrassment to President George W Bush, undermining Mr Bush's warning of catastrophic threats from Saddam Hussein and exposing disagreements within the intelligence world about the nature of the danger.
In a letter to Congress, Mr Tenet said: "Baghdad for now appears to be drawing a line short of conducting terrorist attacks with conventional or chemical and biological warfare against the United States."
