The article focuses on the antiwar movement in the U.S. An antiwar movement resulted from the growth of public consciousness and political intelligence. It is a response to the extremism of a long-unresponsive government and a stumbling and incoherent empire. It is a revulsion against official and corporate contempt for the will and welfare of ordinary citizens. Most importantly, it is a movement to reclaim democracy and to push it further. Such movement will likely be challenged by the right and onetime liberals who fear the costs of real peace and justice. It will be challenged by those who fear regime change.
