And you don't find that significant?

First of all, there is no "war" on Iraq.

Correct. We are bombing them, and they aren't fighting back.

Not yet. But there will be. Or are you the only three-year old on this planet who is not aware of the imminent war???

These are anti-Bush protestors, and anti-US protestors.

Since it is Bush pushing for war, anti-war is obviously also anti-Bush. However, the demonstrations in question were not anti-American, as evidenced by the overwhelming American participation in them. Or do you think people of other nationalities arrived by thousands from other countries to pose as Americans?

Who ever heard of anti-war protestors before there was a war?

Has any war been so well advertised before its arrival? You have to be completely clueless to NOT see it coming and completely stone-hearted to wait until the first thousand civilians die to demonstrate against it.

And where were these people when the US went into Bosnia and Kosovo?

This may be a bit complicated for you, but when you grow up, you will see that not all wars are the same.
