You must not realize that there are many veterans that are against the war including a friend of mine that was also at the rally. You are not very well informed....or maybe you don't think their opinion counts. |
Sure their opinion matters. But they don't represent the vast majority of the military by any means. And they also know that when they sign up....it IS all volunteer, you know----that they may have to go fight a war somewhere. That's their job. They are NOT the Commander-In-Chief or the Generals who make those kinds of decisions and have far more of the big picture than they do to base such decisions on.
I'd venture to say that most of the people there were NOT veterans, but the same people who attend every other protest or march. When I visited Washington D.C. last year, there were some protesters in front of the Supreme Court protesting abortion. They come quite regularly. It's America and everyone is free to express their OPINIONS.
