I think this war does helps a little for the unemployment rate. I read that one major reason for that rescued US soldier to joint the army was she could not find a job anywhere after graduated from high school. who knows how many people are like her?

The Judeofascist Crusade comes home to roost. Told you so... follow-up to my post #6440 (): Oakland antiwar protest gets ugly Tuesday, April 8, 2003 Posted: 0113 GMT ( 9:13 AM HKT) OAKLAND, California (CNN) -- Police used "sting balls," wooden projectiles and bean bags Monday to control a crowd of about 600 antiwar demonstrators attempting to block two gates leading to a large shipping company at the Port of Oakland. About 30 protesters were arrested, Oakland Police spokeswoman Danielle Ashford told CNN. Direct Action to Stop the War organized the protest against American President Lines, saying the company ships arms and supplies for the U.S. military and is profiting from the war on Iraq. Police were out in full force and some wore gas masks. Ashford said officers fired spool-sized wooden projectiles at the ground near protesters' legs and shot small bean bags directly at individuals to try to control the crowd. They also fired so-called sting balls into the air above the crowd. The sting balls were small rubber pellets, about the size of M&M candies, which were contained in a larger ball that exploded in the air, raining pellets down on protesters.
