Crooked Timber: Those demonstrations: "liberal hawks are asking rhetorically why there were no demonstrations against Saddam Hussein, or against other tyrannies.
(I think that last question is pretty easy to answer: people usually demonstrate because they are angry at their own government (or its associates) rather than at someone else’s. Even anger at yesterday’s bombings in Turkey wouldn’t translate into demonstrations because there would be no point in marching against Al Quaida.)"
