Look at the protestor's signs. It's international cheap shot day.

I'm certain we could find signs that say a great variety of things. And I gather the various newspaper articles which note how "nuanced" the views of the marchers were mean little to you.

But none of that is how it will get read. It is simply a massive, perhaps, as some newspapers are writing, the most massive demonstrations ever. Invasion in the face of those demonstrations will push those flames ever higher. You and I had best put any European or, for that matter, international, travel plans on hold for some time.
