Waging Peace: The Art of War for the Antiwar Movement
by Scott Ritter
Book Description: Scott Ritter, former Marine and UN weapons inspector, argues that there is a growing despondency amongst the anti-war movement. Ritter proposes the anti-war movement seek guidance from sources they normally spurn that one must study the enemy in order to learn the art of campaigning and of waging battles when necessary. They need to understand the pro-war movements decision-making cycle, then undertake a comprehensive course of action.

I have great admiration for Scott Ritter. He's one of the few who got it right about the Iraq War. I watched the 9/3/07 C-SPAN interview of Scott Ritter and his passionate presentation of his latest book. He takes the Anti-War Movement to task for its failures and offers a plan to correct their mistakes.
Naturally, the Establishment makes fun of Ritter and his book---just as they've always done while ignoring his warnings about going to war in Iraq.
I'll have to look into this book. I didn't even know about it. Thanks bee
There has to be a rallying point before the public (and anti-war movement) can get their act together, re Bush's war. Something more personal, such as a draft.
