Mind you, it isn't a communist thing to oppose attacking Syria. It's certainly a legitimate subject of debate. And opposing an attack on Syria doesn't make you a communist any more than it makes you a racist since President Obama is proposing to do so.
But the communists have always liked to jump in front of a parade and hope to quietly direct and lead for their own purposes the far larger normal groups of people who oppose something. They did it over Iraq. They did it in the whole stupid 99% clown show. And now they are doing it about Syria.
Normal people don't start protesting so early in a crisis. It's the Labor Day long weekend, for Pete's sake. School is starting. College football season is beginning! So when I saw someone named Brian Becker being interviewed at a protest march as just some normal guy upset at President Obama's direction, I had to look him up. (Note to viewers: When a sign says "Hands off [evil country]!" it's usually a communist writer.)
Wait. What? Brian Becker was ANSWER's national coordinator at one point?
Fancy that. It could be a coincident name-wise. In fact, I thought it was possible that the person interviewed was a Connecticut state legislator. But they don't seem to be the same guy at all. Funny enough, Iran's Press TV had no problem identifying Becker as an ANSWER operative. He's still quite active in the cause.
This is what Act Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER) does. It is a hard core communist group that still loves North Korea and stands up for any thug ruler that opposes America.
Of course, this has to be tough for ANSWER drones. They want to stop the American war on Syria (that "end war" part). But opposing an African American president who wants to wage war is racist isn't it (what about the "end racism" part?).
But opposing racism by supporting a war waged by an African American president starts a war.
But opposing an African American president's war is racist.
Please explain! Please explain! Illogical!
The (American) press never explained who the organizers for these events generally were. Will they start now when the target is their Dear Leader? Be prepared to see lots of smoke coming from ears over the next week.
UPDATE: Get out of here! No way!
There's been a lot of talk about the absence of a strong and visible anti-war movement, the way there was during the George W. Bush Presidency. While there are protests against intervention in Syria, in general the movement seems to be a lot weaker under Obama. If you guessed that this had something to do with the fact that Obama is a Democrat, you'd be correct!
Check out the chart. And gosh, just what might that "third party" be anyway? For Marxists, even President Obama is unacceptable.
