Despite peace activists being so violent and issuing threats & vitriol against those whom they disagree with politically, the Gathering of Eagles rally took place without incident this past weekend on the National Mall in D.C. to show support for the troops & their mission.
Also in attendance were Eagles UP, Move America Forward and other pro-troop organizations in an effort to counter the media darling, far left / anti-troop rally staged the same weekend in Silver Spring, Maryland by winter soldier II, the IVAW, Veterans for Peace and other assorted anti-war groups.
I'm sure the MSM is all over this one. A big TY to Gateway Pundit!
Plus, via MM, from Byron Dazey, who attended the pro troop / counter-moonbat rally in Tacoma, WA! this weekend. Dazey has an excellent photo essay and reports:
The fifth anniversary of the Iraq War is coming up, and so the usual gaggle of communist front groups came down again to “shutdown” the Recruiting Center at the Tacoma Mall on March 15th, 2008, but this time they had a surprise waiting. The place was already packed with military families and supporters.
