The 3 that are being held are/were security guards taking a calculated risk that didn't pan out.  If I were being held, I would hope my family would be stronger and not give the bastages what they want.

The demonstration was promoted by the families of the three hostages.

Only "peace" flags have been waved during the demonstration.

No political slogan, no political flag, nothing against italian or USA Army.

Is this disturbing you armchair generals or warboys?

I find it disturbing that terrorists would demand a peace demonstration or else they would kill their hostages.

Well I'm with gofaster too. I'd hope my family wouldn't do it.

That's not to say I don't sympathize with those families, and it aint even to say that I wouldn't consider doing it myself if it meant saving, say, my brother's life.

But it's ridiculous. The fact that these folks are demonstrating for the only reason that terrorists are forcing them to is a really pathetic spectacle.

Tough one...

The terrorists demanded a demonstration against the italian and US governments. A demonstration to obtain the retirement of italian army from Iraq.

Actually, those families and ppl are asking for peace and the release of the hostages. Among them there were even leftist politicians but not even a word has been said against the troops or governments.

I can understand there is a *subtle* difference between demonstrating for peace/sons and for terrorism. But indeed there is. And it is very important. I'm sure you can understand it. Hmmm, can you ... ? Wait, yes, maybe understanding differences is difficult.

For example, there are differences between fighting communism and:
- supporting the butcher fascist Pinochet,
- supporting other central/south american dictatorships,
- supporting the young Saddam Hussein,
- supporting the young Bin Laden,
- supporting the bloody Saudi Arabia,
- supporting and financing thousands of bloody covert ops in South America and South east Asia.
- ......
For example, there are contraddictions between being the mighty defender of world's liberty and:
- support Putin in Cecenia slaughter,
- close both eyes in front of Kurds slaughter,
- blindly support and finance Israel in his colonial policy,
- ......

"Same old Europe" understands these subtle differences and apparent contraddictions and still supports USA. Can you please understand us? Please ...  :rolleyes:

The fact that leftist (im assuming opposition parties) politicans took part obviously makes it a political event.

However it's a tough spot for the families.
