There is nothing like spreading freedom, democracy and humanitarian values around the world... Yeah.. just break out your banners and wave 'em at 1600 Pennsylvania. Where were you all when Milosevic was beating the hell out of the Bosnians?? Where have you all been while he's been spreading HIS form of Serbian freedom, democracy, and Serbian humanitarian "values" around Kosovo. Y'know, I don't have any problem with folks being anti-war.... what really disgusts me is their downright hypocrisy about who they protest against. For 50+ years, totalitarian gov't was being promoted around the world, the VERY ANTITHESIS of your stated goal of freedom, democracy, and humanitarian values. I certainly didn't see many of you protesting the violent overthrow of the Afghan gov't and genocide that was perpetrated by the Russians during the '80s. I'll have respect for anti-war movements when they show as much desire to rally against the cruelty and brutality perpetrated by non-democratic nations, as they currently display against the US. You're nothing more than lackies for the opposition, just like you were during the Vietnam war. Sorry George, but unless you can tell me that you have participated in any non-US targeted anti-war demonstration, I can't have much respect for your apparent fervor. Regards, Ron
