At least three of those signs look like they support the war. That's just plain weird. They were protesting, right??

yep, apparently the British Communist party was at the peace march in London. Both of them.

Captain Mike, none of those images were photo manipulated (I'm no good at that sort of thing, I can barely manage to crop images). They are all real signs... held by counter-protesters who "infiltrated" the protest.

Glad to hear it, I thought I was really missing something, which may still be true.

That I believe. I don't think that Anti-war protestors would be that dumb enough to allow these signs in their protests.
But the question remains, did those guys find out about those signs during the protest? And secondly, did those Counter-protestors even make it out alive (a counter-protestor was seriously injured during a labour protest in Ontario a few years ago)?

I don't see what communism has to do with Iraq.
And if liberating Iraq is going to make every Arab woman stop wearing a burka, then I guess I owe them a coke!
Those poor misguided little idiots.
I just finished reading The Sum of All Fears. damn, the movie just doesn't do it credit. I could barely sit through the Movie, same with the first half of the book. But the second half was really good. The end was so suspenseful.

They're anti-war full stop. Workers of the world unite and all that. I didn't know there still was a Communist party; they haven't held a seat in the Commons since the 1950s and I doubt any of the Lords were especially enamoured with it.
