Several right-wing blogs have reported on an Insurgence Solidarity March in San Francisco and elsewhere. If these reports are accurate, I say these demonstrations represent the same kind of juvenile crap that persistently undermined the antiwar movement of the Vietnam era and maintained support for Richard Nixon. (And I will call it juvenile even though the fellow in
the photograph has gray hair.)
As big a mistake as I believe the Iraq invasion was, as long as our soldiers are dying at the hands of those insurgents, I will not be claiming "solidarity" with them, and I am disgusted with any allegedly civilized person who does.
If this same kind of nonsense goes on in the streets of New York City during the Republican National Convention, we can count on four more years of the Bush Regime.
