During the coverage of the anti-war protest in London, with around 1 million people at Hyde Park, the channel 4 news crew interviewed an Iraqi woman who couldn't believe that anyone was out protesting against the fall of Saddam Hussain.
She said the people of Iraq were hoping for an attack on Saddam (which doesn't mean the cost of every Iraqi persons life) from the U.S. or whatever other country. She understood that Iraqi lives would be lost, but that lives are being taken every day under the current regime and that the cost of war would bring a better future for the people.
This is what Tony Blair stressed today in his speech, it's not about killing every Iraqi person in sight, but simply to get Saddam out.
The protestors on about saving lives, how the fuck would they know what it's like over there. Like you and me, they go to work (some of them) go home, and that's about it. We don't see anything on what really happens and we certainly don't have their problems.
That's why compairing Bush to Hitler on other threads is a joke.
Like someone else said on here, when your own troops are over ready for war, the last thing they need is to hear how their own country is against them. Sheeesh...
