A quote to give you the flavor:
But by taking the political path of least resistance - by condemning the Iraq war as unwinnable instead of inherently wrong - more restrained foes of the war helped to prolong the occupation that has inflicted and catalyzed so much carnage.
Norman Solomon's got this one right in my book.

"A major part of the protest against the war springs simply from the fact that we are losing it. If it were not for the heavy cost, politicians like the Kennedys [Robert and Edward] and organizations like the ADA [the liberal Americans for Democratic Action] would still be as complacent about the war as they were a few years ago."
same as it ever was, IMO. . .
you can bet if americans thought they were "winning", there'd be little "whining". . .
