Perhaps it's time for the citizens to go and visit the classrooms...(I know of one HS here in the area that has at least one teacher who is anti-war, was a protester and tells the students that he was and is, is actively telling the students his views of hating Bush, and the Administration, etc. We're working on that now.)

That sounds like a mistake. Are you saying teachers can't have views? And can't talk about those views? Surely you don't mean that.

We went in, with troops, no UN decision as to yes or no...the folks in the Balkans had not struck the US nor US citizens, no oil, and people being tortured and killed. Didn't see any peace marches, or anti-war protesters at that time.

Because there a wide swath of the globe was concerned about the Bosnian situation; because the Clinton folk handled the diplomacy far better; because we were perceived as saving lives, not taking lives; etc.
