Bush &Co. and their followers like to paint a negative image of who is out there voicing opposition to this war. They have tried very hard to make it appear like the protesters are radicals, anti-American, anti-patriotic, anti-everything and a threat to society.
Anytime there is a war, politicians put this spin on it for the media. And when you have something so evil as war, there will be ghosts and karma that come back to haunt you.
Look at the composition and make-up of these anti-war groups and demonstrators throughout the U.S. and world. They are made up of loving and devoted mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters and concerned people of the community who happen to be very patriotic. In fact, many of them come directly from military personnel, where their own kids died in this rotten experience.
Cindy Sheehan was not the only mom out there to mark the third anniversary of the start of the Iraq war. Among those outside the war memorial was the mother of 21-year-old Lance corporal David Banning, who was killed in Fallujah in November 2004. And another whose child came back blinded in one eye and his arm blown off in a roadside bomb.
God Bless America!
