We're working on it, although the Iraqis seem to have turned the tide today against the U.S.

Hello? Obviously you haven't spent any time in the latin american solidarity movement, where one of the primrary activities was eating rice and beans solidarity dinners and getting educated about U.S. intervention in Central America.
Yeah, I'll grant that the rice and beans were pretty good and it's good to promote education. But we didn't achieve much in the results department. Perhaps if the Internet had come along in the 1980s we could have put together a better solidarity movement that would have made the U.S. think twice.
