    So: blankly anti-war activists should condemn Putin? He should have tried harder to avoid war? Archived Message

    Too many fluffily anti-war banner-wavers fail or refuse to thoroughly research the geopolitical root causes that precipitate war. So they can't distinguish truth from lies.

    So instead they just vaguely and fluffily tell us how lovely peace is compared to wicked war.

    Yeah. Make Love not War, man.

    What they need to be aware of, opposing and "anti" are the policies, policy-makers, decisions and actions that precipitate war. And likewise condemning and protesting against our cheerleading US-serving media that facilitates, endorses, fails to oppose those decisions, actions, and refuses to expose lies, false claims etc

    And for the past 75 years or so it is primarily America's and NATO's war-precipitating policies, decisions and actions that so many Peace-is-Lovely campaigners should have been pre-emptively "anti" - as in protesting vociferously and pre-emptively opposing and exposing them. And by constantly doing the necessary irksome geopolitical research. And there's the rub.
