Not many there were there?

There were not many there were there at the so called mass rally against the war? I have become skeptical about the whole anti-war movement. Why shouold we pull our troops out now when the result will only be civil war and chaos for the countries of Iraq and Afghanistan. Surely it would be better to wait until things are settled over there before bringing the troops home.
