I'm just getting back into my student like ways again after an absence from the education system. :P
It also seems to me, over 1/3 of those were protesting with very little information. They just heard a war was going to happen, and decided that no good can come from war. Little do they realise that it was the only way to get Saddam out.

Eh? Surely it was the people who supported war that were arguing with very little information? After all Tony Blair had just presented a fictional dossier on non-existent weapons of mass destruction, claiming that Saddam was on the verge of blowing up our troops in Cyprus with ebola filled nukes. Our leaders lied and tricked their way into war, feeding misinformation to the public and scaring them into supporting an illegal, foolish and unnecessary war.

I don't think so. This is a quote from someone more eloquent than I, but it pretty much sums up my feelings on the matter:
"Administration officials continue to claim that the only alternative to maintaining the unity of the UN Security Council is to send U.S. forces to Baghdad. That is wrong. As has been said repeatedly in letters and testimony to the President and the Congress by myself and other former defense officials, including two former secretaries of defense, and a former director of central intelligence, the key lies not in marching U.S. soldiers to Baghdad, but in helping the Iraqi people to liberate themselves from Saddam."
Guess which well known communist said that?
Yes, I can see how that would have worked.
But, anyway, take it up with the guy responsible for the quote.
Lets face it; anyone who is still pro-Dubya after listening to Bell 'debate' in his favour is probably never going to deviate from the pro-War path.

Bwah ha ha haaaaa! Showing your love of freedom again Bell?
I dunno why you're so down on dictatorships; everything you say stinks of the desire to exercise absolute power yourself...
