Hey, I think these people are on to something here.
However, iit will only work if all parties concerned agree to it. They should immendiately dispatch groups to protest similarly in Baghdad
Why do they need to protest in Baghdad to get our troops out ? They
never had civil war or open sectarian fighting before the Boy Moron invaded. Hussein kept Al Queda out and a repressive lid on the
different factions. Get US out now.
