Anti-war Movement's Big Moment Arrives

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Jules Crittenden frames it as Chickenus Dovus Asniniensis ...

... the anti-war crowd, most of whom didn't even manage to not shield Iraqis in the first place, have channeled their indignation into demands that anyone who supports this war enlist and go to Iraq. They've also been incensed that anyone who didn't go to a war that they didn't go to 40 years ago should suggest the United States needs to act in its own self-interest and self-defense. They call these people "chickenhawks."

Now, American soldiers may be asked to fight a rearguard action, dying for the disengagement the anti-war movement has demanded. Now is the time for everyone who supports this to enlist. Go to Baghdad. Place yourself between the hapless GIs and their attackers. Strap yourselves to the bumpers of Humvees ... better yet, jog ahead of the convoy and jump up and down on anything that looks suspicious.

Be sure to read it all ..., and check out Jules' Chickendove bibliography.

As one of the "card-carrying military veterans" that went to the war that these Chickendoves didn't go to, and with a kid in Iraq that's there for the umpteenth time (volunteered each and every time), I have a particular disgust for these naive, Kumbaya-embracing, yammering propeller-headed nitwit chicken asses (borrowing a few terms from links at Jules post)!
