Well, in recent decades, this movement hasn't been so much anti-American as it's been anit-REPUBLICAN-American. Note the lack of concern or protest over Clinton's wars, and the canonization of Jimmy Carter by these so-called peaceniks.

Absolutely right! I am somewhat surprised that the author of this article didn't state that. I'm also surprised that he didn't bring up the "useful idiots" phrase. I thought Stalin had originated it, but perhaps it predated his foray into the peacemovementgame.

I agree with Alas Babylon. When America entered the Croatian war there were no protests. This occured during Clinton's administration. The Serbians aggression towards Croatia was for as much the same reason as Irag's aggression towards Iran and Kuwait. I had no problem with our involvement during the Croatian war. Croatia was under attack and could barely defend itself. If I'm remembering correctly the French, Russians, and even Germany was against the Serb's aggression. And also sent in their troops. It's funny however a militant exploiting tyrant such has Saddam Hussein can be seen as less offensive than the Serbian leader. The Serbian leader was allowing inhumane acts just the same as Saddam Hussein as been doing for decades. Yet Saddam is still allowed to run a country with more accounts brought up against him than the Serbian leader. Yet we have protests against the UN getting Saddam Hussein out of dictatorship and held accountable for his cruel actions. That's what should have been settled back in 1996 when reports after reports and his denial to accept UN resolution. Saddam Hussein has been a threat for decades. A man who would kill to get in position, has no safe state of mind nor a conscience. If it were Bill Clinton making this call back in his admistration , would there have be any protests? I seriously doubt it!
(To read upon the Serbian aggression I got some info from : 'Causes and Dynamics of the War in Croatia' by Mladen Klemenic publ. in the ACTA Geographica Croatica, vol. 28, 1-245 Zagreb, 1993)
