Most I have met support our troops and love our country, but is marching for peace doing more harm than good?

Never has. There are always so many who are on the fence, feeling timid, intimidated, or just not sure, and when they a mass demonstration of people like themselves expressing disapproval of their governments policy, it inspires many to get up and express themselves as well. Usually those that seek war are a few, and we are a multitude, so when we speak up, the few most often go back into hiding.

Yes. It is aiding and abetting the terrorists and their supporters. Osama bin Laden must clap his hands for joy every time the news here showcases a 'peace' march.

When there mostly paid activists it does more harm than good. You cannot support our troops and not support the mission. They go together. You can't love the country either when your actions embolden the very enemy we're trying to defeat!

I have always been amazed at the idea of fighting your own country for "peace."
It just seems like the war is going to be fought, regardless, so why not find something constructive to show support to the troops?
Of course, it is free speech to protest, but makes the protesters look like they don't care about our troops.

The only way marching for peace can help is if the marches are held in Tehran, Damascus etc. We want peace, they don't.

Kind of like trying to relive Woodstock.
