Why not, Demand UN administration! Democracy for Iraq! or something that is not so faux-populist isolationist? This is all the brain-dead sloganeering that failed in the first place.
And where is all the Afghanistan agitation now that the US is wimping out on promises to provide funding for the people there? Did the antiwar movement give a damn about the people of Afghanistan, or is it all just agitprop, where the attention span of the antiwar movement is the same as the government, each moving on restlessly to the next battle to score political points, not giving a shit about those countries left behind?
I've been against both wars but can't really think of myself as part of the antiwar movement, because it is so morally bankrupt in its slogans. This is not a peace and justice movement-- it's an America First isolationist movement.
