Unigolyn, a great blog from Estonia, posts an excellent essay asking the protesters why they oppose this war with the things we are seeing. Read the whole thing, but here's a taste:
"Now tell me how Bush is 'just as bad'. Please inform me of even one thing that George W. Bush has ever done that is nearly as evil and monstrous as this.
And if your argument isn't that, if your argument is that Saddam can be dealt with otherwise, then let me know how he can be disarmed without war? You simply cannot send in 'ninjas' or 'special forces units' to take him out. He is harder to kill than the US president, and no US president has been killed since 1963. Not for lack of trying. And even if you somehow do take him out, Qusay the Butcher will take his place, or Uday, or any number of the other sociopathic monsters he has surrounded himself with."
