Last night I went out to Dupont Circle to ask a few folks on the street what they thought of the latest grim milestone in the Iraq War. The video is below. What struck me is a sense of mystification. The respondents all were against the war from the beginning but were also mostly against pulling out immediately. They were instead looking for a responsible end to the war, without knowing where that may come from.
Nice work.
Why are all those people making so much sense? Don't they know they're supposed to be evil neo-colonial bastard Americans and the root of all that goes wrong in the world?
Really, if you can't trust that, what can you trust?
