"They" may, in fact, think the war will be a huge mistake for American interests in the Middle East. Come to think of it, aren't many of the protesters saying exactly that?

That would be a reasonable view to take - but I didn't hear any of the speakers at Saturday's demonstrations take it. They opposed an evil war for oil and capitalism. I didn't hear anybody say, this war will harm America's interests. Did you? Every speaker I heard was not on the same side of any interests that included the government or the present administration.
