David Unfamous and PE:
1,000,000 people out of 59,778,002 (July 2002 est.) in the UK is hardly the majority. Democracy is prevailing whether you agree with it or not.
What a spectacularly bizarre thing to say! Given that there were exactly
zero people on the
pro-war rally, then we can therefore conclude......?
I wonder what you did mean by this. Did you mean that the Government should only not attack Iraq if more than 29,889,001 people turn up for an anti-war rally (emphasis on "more than"
)?
Or maybe you thought that I was unfairly making the inference that 1m + people on the march (the biggest demo in the nation's history)
necessarily implied that the majority of the country was against the war?
Or maybe you thought I might not realise that 1m was less than half of 59m? That, of course, would be astronomically idiotic of you, though not entirely unfeasible.
Given your "democracy is prevailing" comment ("prevailing" against what exactly? "Evil"? "Terror"?) can I put my jdean hat on and extrapolate that you think "democracy is prevailing" in Iraq, also, where as you know Saddam had practically 100% approval at the last general election.
Its difficult to know what you mean or where you're going without any more of substance from you.
