It’s worth noting, as well, that the general attitude of peace activists I met was tension and anger. They were impossible to reason with...

And so I have become disillusioned, at least with the Leftists I met in Iraq. So noble in their rhetoric, they looked to the stars, yet ignored what was happening around them, caring only about what was inside their minds. So glorious in their ideals, their thoughts were inflexible and their deeds unnecessary, even harmful. In the end, they proved to me how dogma and fanaticism had transform peace activists into—lifeless peace “statues.”

That statement could describe the state of affairs with many of the lefties on SI.
