Last year about this time, I encountered a "peace" march (whose members were waving the Iraqi flag) and felt compelled to shout out a few supportive slogans:
"Hey, leave him alone! Saddam's not raping my sister!"
"Give the UN 12 more years!"
Now, it seems apparent that at least some of those marchers might have actually thought I was trying to help. Check out the photo choice in this anti-Americanwar article.

Just in case you're not aware, that sign is from protestwarrior.com.

Yes, thanks.
My favorites, however, were Jim Treacher's entries in an "anti-war" poster competition, which the open-minded, tolerant, free-speech loving competition judges removed. This was shortly after the fall of Baghdad: "But everything's not instantly perfect!" and "Come on, people, those goalposts aren't going to move themselves!" Unfortuanately, the archive link seems to be totally bloggered.

I remember that. It must have been linked of LGF or something. I really, really loved the "goalposts" one.
