John,

>the time for protest was before military action started.

And that's what I'm doing. AFAIK the military action is still to start in Syria, Iran, Lybia, Sudam... and the bloody massacre will continue.

Meanwhile, it's my opinion that the brutality of the massacre of innocent Iraqi people should be loudly condemned.

Also think that for the sake of my conscience I should voice what I'm feeling.

PS. BTW, watching last night images on TV I could see that Sadam's palaces were in reasonably good shape when the US military arrived Baghdad. I wonder were all that incredible rain of "inteligent" bombs had fallen (civilians?).
