Frank, over at IMAO, says this, which dovetails nicely with what I said a couple days ago in the post below.
But there has to be more that people can do than blogging. Anti-war people "protest", pro-war people blog and call in to various talk-radio shows. Who gets the media coverage? The anti-war people, of course (although some might say that a pro-war "demonstration" also would not get media coverage because of bias in the media - but I'll hold off judgment on that issue for now).
Are there any pro-war demonstrations going on? Any people marching in support of our troops, in support of our fight to protect ourselves, in support of our struggle to prevent another 9/11? If there are, then why haven't I heard about them? If there aren't, then why not? Do we not feel passionately about our support? Or are we trying to help in other ways?
Aristotle said that if you give him a lever and a place to stand, that he would move the moon. Is it possible for us to stand and move in such a way that we strengthen our resolve? I'm not exactly sure, but I feel this need to try...
