It’s different this time – very different. Back in 1967, it was another place in history. Some of us were mad at War itself. Some of us were mad at our System. Some of us were mad at the Warriors. Some of us were mad at our Parents. And some of us were mad at the Administration.
This time, we’re not mad at War itself. We’re not mad at the Warriors. If anything, we’re fighting to get our System back. For many of us, our Parents are either dead or marching with us. We’re mad that our Government has been taken over by a group of people who have taken us into the Wrong War – not a war against our enemies, al Qaeda, but a war of conquest.
And, we’re going to put a stop to it. We can’t fix the harm we’ve already caused, but we can stop doing more of it.
I sent a email to the Washington Post editorial staff about the outrageous editorial about it was the right war but that it’s been executed poorly. I told them it was the wrong war and that if they want they and their family should join up and fight in this war. I was livid. If I didn’t have reposibilities to other I would have marched in Washington yesterday.
