No. They didn't want us to invade Iraq. Bsirske said,
- "On Day X as many people as possible should take to the streets and show that they are against the war in Iraq. We call upon all members to take part in the actions.”
“Let us set our protest against the warmongers, the protest of millions of people in the entire world, our dedication and our strength, the strength of the international peace movement!”
Nothing in there about wanting our troops to go home. I would wager a lot of Germans -- even Germans who opposed the war in Iraq -- are grateful that we defended their country for so many years and would like us to stay for reasons to go beyond the local economy. They can feel that way and still oppose the war in Iraq, hard as that may be for you to comprehend.
Perhaps you know something more about Mr. Bsirske, etc. -- I'm only reading the blog you linked to.
eta: No doubt, around the world there are misguided leftists attack our policies and our military because they cannot or do not distinguish between the two. It's sad when conservatives are blind in the same way.
