What do the anti-war protestors want?

The Cindy Sheehans of this world make no sense whatever. Where were they in the months leading up to the invasion, when every sane person outside the government was screaming at the administration to back off? Where were they when tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians were being massacred daily, first by US airstrikes and later by insurgent bombings? About the only true statement that Colin Powell made in the leadup to the Iraq invasion was to state the Pottery Barn principle: You break it, you own it. For better or for worse, we own Iraq now and we have to fix it, or Iraqis will hate us for generations to come.
