Disagreeing, I can understand & respect. Actually taking the side of the enemy is beyond reason. Would these people prefer Iraq as it was?

what is the story behind the picture, if it's jsut a protest, free speech, etc. no problem, but actually conspiring withe the enemy is totally wrong.....in this case (just standing up for the freedom fighters in france, during WWII, they didn't all run away)
 
Those are protesters in London...considering what they are emulating it almost leans to sedition over protest.
 
more of a protest, sedition would have toe start with them pulling there own leader down, and even then it's a far cry to sedition.

if anything is lese magisty, which most counries have stricken from their law books.

going slightly off topic, I'm upset bush cancelled some of his appearances because he (he meaning him, his aides etc.) where afraid of being heckled, or walked out on, it's not a security risk, let him defend his actions, it's what a strong leader would do.

Where in the world do you get sedition from that picture?

I think you must be using a very different definition than the one I'm familiar with.

Sedition is an act of assisting or comforting the enemy, especially with overt overtones against your own government. Granted, these are British in London, but the sentiment is the same.

Still, not sedition.
 
Gotta go but I'll leave you with this...are not the Ba'athist party members & a few terrorist cells finding comfort in this...waiting for the Vietnam-era curse to rear its ugly malformed head? Much of this is deja-vu all over again. And the final question still remains

I don't think the protest will reach veitnam era size, people are jsut expressing there distaste for this war

I think that's stretching "aid and comfort to the enemy" a couple of thousand light years past the breaking point.

1. Not the point.
2. Not the reason we were given.
 
police say 100,000 people turned out on a thursday afternoon to protest bush's being here. i don't buy the sedition line as any protest could be construed as 'giving comfort to the enemy' by its very existence.
that being said there are always some who take the thing too far [it's usually the socialist worker wankers with their misguided rhetoric].

you forgot one key element: oil


but my post was meant to say what they are saying its for.
Oil is money. 100 years ago it was have been gold. 100 years before that it was tea. Cause and effect doesn't really change.

Oh, and I understood you freako, I wasn't trying to contradict you or anything. :)
