Being an Iraq War Protester is the Most Important Thing Anyone Can do. The War is Fought for Profits and Globalist Control; Innocent People Are Dying for NWO.

Now that Obama is in office instead of Bush, it’s a lot less cool to be an Iraq War protester.

Many seem to be abandoning the cause, allowing that now that Bush is out of office everything is going to be okay.

Obama has made promises, and even though they are just as vague and undefined as anything that ever came out of Bush or Rumsfeld’s mouth, somehow, just because it’s Obama things are going to be just fine.

But wait… just because a different butt is warming the seat in the Oval Office doesn’t mean that anything has changed for the soldiers on the ground.

They still don’t know when they will be coming home, the war still costs a fortune with no clear accounting method in place and the local folks are still blowing up Humvees and convoys on the move throughout the country.

It may no longer be the leading headline, but the war is still very much on and the problems are still very much the same.

Any Iraq War protester who wants to see real change will need to hang in there a little longer and continue to protest against the ongoing presence in Iraq.

The economy and Afghanistan may be very meritorious distraction, but distractions are all they really are to those who care about putting an end to the Iraq War and ongoing troop presence in the area.

Flagging Attention

Five years is a long time for an Iraq War protester to continue picketing, marching, speaking out and getting attention.

Especially when the attention span that one is trying to attract is about 15 seconds long, thanks to sound bites and video games.

The public is tired of hearing about the war, especially since there is so much else that is depressing vying for attention on the nightly news.

However, the public is not half as tired of the war as the soldiers are, and even the soldiers are not half as tired as the Iraqi public.

Yet the Iraqi public isn’t getting much of a voice in the whole debate, and neither are many of the soldiers who are dissatisfied with the way things are going on the ground.

For this reason, protesters in the U.S., who do get some media attention, need to keep up their work.

Accept no Substitutes

The other thing an Iraq War protester needs to do is accept no substitutes from the government when it comes to ending the war in Iraq.

They can change the name of the War on Terror as many times as they like, but calling a horse a bicycle won’t stop it from eating grass when it gets hungry.

Word games and appeasement memos about thinking about maybe considering possibly opening up to the idea of closing Guantanamo aren’t going to be acceptable to a real protester.

The government needs to listen to protesters instead of going with public relations appeasement efforts to shut them up.
