Thanks for “fixing” my comment! LOL

It was amazing how fast the anti-war movement during WWII shifted to full tilt pro-war - the very second Hitler attacked their beloved “Uncle Joe” Stalin.

My little sister was a freshman in college and went to an “anti-war” rally. She came back saying “Those people are NOT anti-war and they are NOT for peace.”

Amid the communists, Arab agitators, and antisemites - it was hard to find a single person actually for “peace”.

Above: Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov signs the Nazi-Soviet Non-aggression Pact while German Foreign Minister Von Ribbentrop and Soviet leader Stalin look on under a portrait of Lenin, August 23, 1939. News of the Pact stunned the world and paved the way for the beginning of World War Two with Hitler assured the Germans would not have to fight a war on two fronts.

Many of the participants of the large so-called "anti-war" rallies are typically naive dupes of the commie left organizers, or so bloody stupid they don't even know why they're there.

Bob Dylan has strong Judeo-Christian beliefs. He played a concert for Pope John Paul II but did not convert to Catholicism.

Dylan holds a lot of conservative views: pro-life, pro-2nd amendment(with protect your castle sensibilities), never has been a pacifist, each war should be judged on its own merits, is concerned over lack of border security, very pro-God, prefers America to be a melting pot with inhabitants , citizens and immigrants encouraged to unite under our flag,......
