I'd rather have domestic socialism than foreign imperialism any day, but I'd prefer to have neither.

Would your prefer Stalin over Queen Victoria?

This antiwar group seems to be connected to Socialists. Be careful.




The United National Antiwar Committee (UNAC) was formed at a July 23-25 Albany, New York national antiwar conference of 800 antiwar and social justice leaders and activists from 35 states.

The video seemed to be more "Long Live Palestine" than "Down With U.S. Imperialism." Not that the two are mutually exclusive, but there are other victims of U.S. wars besides Palestinians.

These long marches can't easily be fit into a regular time slot. The networks have to make room for them by fitting them in where (and when) they can.

This video has been placed the queue. It will be shown sometime shortly after the reports of the Ron Paul March on Washington 2008.

Please bear with us as we strive to keep you updated and informed.

Stalin was a foreign imperialist AND a domestic COMMUNIST. Victoria was just an imperialist.

Socialism is a little different than communism.

I can't think of a pure socialist, non-imperialist.

Maybe modern Sweden...

Frankrep, the same thing happened with Bush war in the UK there was socialists/ communists trying to make an anti-war stance.
