Who's a-Comin'?

After reading my last post, or even before, please consider being a part of this:

Congress will not end the war, and marches alone are not enough. That's why this event comes at the end of a week in which it's time to "occupy the occupiers." No more business as usual. UNITE to demand TROOPS OUT NOW!

Just a thought after going to the DC Protests a few weeks back... As much as I love the dynamics of massive protests.. its not as easy as literally pulling out now... its like telling the Iraqis "oops sorry we messed up, good luck dealing with all the chaos that we caused.." Unfortunately the US got involved in a mess without thinking things through... we ourselves gotta learn their lesson and think of new ways together that we can better the situation and replace violence with constructive actions. I am not advocating further war... I'm just advocating a change in the ways we approach a means to end it. .

I agree.
Unfortunately such mass protests have the tendency to blanket itself with a theme like pull out now.
I prefer 'peace in the middle east' with a solution resolving the lack of infrastructure, sovereignty, justice, law enforcement, trade regulation bureaus, education, and foremost BLOODshed.
We broke it, therefore we must fix it.

Despite this pull out now attitude, i plan on going with my guitar and a blanket to sit on.

Cheers.
