So now it's "cop like" to denounce reactionary murderers? Afraid you might smear a future Mumia by speaking the truth? Wouldn't want that on your conscience, I know.
Look, I oppose this war, but have no trouble denouncing those who deserve to be denounced. Much of the "left" could care less about al-Q, we see that here on a daily basis, and save for a few passing words about Saddam, they pretty much leave him out of the picture. I have no idea how to stop what is sure to come, and neither do you. But I would make my differences plain regardless, and acknowledge that this isn't Vietnam or Nicaragua, and that old slogans don't apply.
