Vietnam anti-war movements were primarily the result of the military draft. Another words, about 3/4 of the protests were actually anti-draft protests and riots; "H-ll no, we won't go!" & and nation wide (televised) "Draft Card Burning" acts. Iraq protesters were similar to all the rest of the protests that occur normally; (WWI & WWII had protesters, but not as publicized), Operation Desert Storm in Jan/Feb 1991 had protesters, and that campaign only lasted 45 days.
