So, "majoritarianism" doesn't make you right.  That isn't exactly headline 
news, Sarah.  However, your insinuation elsewhere that people who oppose the 
war are in the minority (which I dispute, by the way) begs the question "does 
being in a minority mean you're wrong?"

For someone who professes so much knowledge of this area, I'm amazed at how 
many of your posts revolve around tendentious statements and links to opinion 
pieces written by loud-mouthed rent-a-gobs like Davids Aronovitch.
