My boss tells me, "Don't come to me with a problem unless you also have a solution." Here are the "solutions" proposed by the so-called anti-war crowd. Pinning these people down by asking them point-blank questions throws them for a loop, because they are so used to spouting empty slogans.

Twenty phone calls later, here is the entire list of “peace plans” suggested by “peace activists”: pray; pray; hope the Islamo-fascists just stop killing us; negotiate with Osama bin Laden, then pray; close our borders to “bad” immigrants (caller wasn’t sure how to find the “bad” ones, but didn’t want to stop Arabs from coming to the United States); surrender — and no, the caller did not have a French accent; fly every world leader to Baghdad to ask Saddam to leave; focus our mental energies on peace as we enter the “Year of the Sheep” (I swear I’m not making that up); and finally, invade Israel and force them to accept whatever the Arabs demand in order to stop terrorism.

Thanks for sharing.....this was very enlightening

Scary that one person's plan is to invade Israel instead of Iraq. The left has become so anti-Semitic

Looks like the media can no longer ignore the abject stupidity of these socialists marching for "peace" all over the place. Hopefully the exposure will continue and shift the attitudes of those who are still sitting on the fence about killing Saddam.

They are typical of leftists America-hating peace protesters everwhere. The left has been devoid of ideas for years.

It is their own fault because the left attracts people who let their emotions decide their course instead of their brains. Which they never learned to use BECAUSE THE LEFT CONTROLS THE SCHOOLS where the mission is to dumb down America!

Well, that certainly tracks with my experience. I've taken to asking the "War Is Not The Answer" crowd with "OK, you got a better idea?" The only one I've asked so far - of maybe twenty or so - told me earnestly that international sanctions could take care of it. That would have been more persuasive if I hadn't recalled her saying only last month that sanctions have killed 500,000 Iraqi kiddies...
