On paper they are. In practice they spent the past several years attacking Nationalist Anti-War demonstrations and volunteering to join the PKM militias in Syria trying to overthrow Assad.

It did happen during Clinton’s phony Kosovo War.

Of course he did. Why do you think so many neocons and warmongers supported him? The Democratic Party, or at least the deep state-connected wing of it Biden belongs to, is not anti-war. It just pretends to be when politically convenient. And it often claims to support different military actions than Rs, but blood and treasure are still being spent and money is still going to the pockets of certain people, so all is still good from their perspective.

They want a war, because it’s the perfect excuse to bring back Wilson’s Sedition Acts.

How so? I didn't see anyone on either side protest that war.

A few years later I saw Janeane Garofolo talking to Bill O'Reilly.

She was talking about how antiwar she was and O'Reilly asked her about protesting that war. She embarrassedly mumble that it wasn't a popular war to protest.

Next thing you know, John Bolton will be invited to join the Biden Admin. as a way of ,wait for it, ‘reaching across the aisle to the GOP’. And my bet is John B. will take that position immediately!

War with Iran will not happen because it would produce $200 oil & sink the US economy into a depression.

They only protest wars and interventions begun by Conservatives.

(Where has Cindy Sheehan been lately? Haven’t heard anything from her in years. I guess Obama - and Trump - put her out of a job. She’ll probably have the opportunity for a comeback soon, but she won’t take it.)

Well when China invades Taiwan next week we might need some hawks. So they can squawk at the take over.
