Define unilateral. Then explain to the families of the mopre than two dozen dead British soldiers how it applies to this situation.
Interestingly enough, my high school's marching band just went up to montreal for adjudication a few days ago and encountered nothing like that.
They were from Masachusetts too.

We played a few exchange games against Massachusettsers when we were kids (Boston and Montreal have a whole series of exchange programs going on).
We were 8-9 they were 11-13
IIRC we beat them by more than 10 points every game we played.
Even worse, while playing hockey their Canadian opponents told their American guests that "the U.S. sucks" and shouted other anti-American insults, the boys recalled.
As I recall, we said that too. And the kids we were playing against said the same sort of **** back...
Cry me a river.
Adults should know better. But I suppose it would be more fitting if one of the kids' fathers had just beat another one to death...

Anyway, kids shoudln't be put in a position like this. They can't handle it like adults. This does nothing good, even to anti-war cause. I mean, if they're anti-war adn against US policies, maybe they should give the kids something positive, or informative, but not negative things like this. This does nothing good.
Yeah, particularily the obscene gesture part.

The US wanted to attack Iraq, and made a decide on its own to attack, the Brits decided to support the attack.

hockey players are just nasty from the beginning!
Ya, terrors on ice.
Although the strange thing is a lot of the hockey goons that I know are the most peaceful people off the ice. It's like a Jeckle and Hyde (sp?).
Same thing with the pros. They get on the ice and they'll smash each other and do major trash talking, but sports say hockey players are almost always polite during interviews. Baseball players are apparently the worst.
So my theory is that people who play hockey burn off their agression on ice. So if we could get the entire world to play hockey, the world would be a more peaceful place.
And this has what to do with a bunch of 11 and 12 year olds?
These kids were probably in a typical greyhound-type bus. Odds are the protesters only saw the USA painted on the bus and reacted to it. They probably never noticed who was in the bus.
Then again, if the protesters knew it was just a bunch of kids then, ya, the protesters were jerks.
But I think it is more likely that the protesters didn't see the kids.

Then it wasn't unilateral. At the very least, assuming you want to (for some silly reason) ignore the Kurds, Australians and Poles, who are all contributing forces, it's bilateral.

Most hockey players are Canadian.

No, the US unilaterally decided that it was going to attack. It made its decision on its own. The US then went to other nations and said join us. The majority of the world said don't attack. A handful of nations offered support to the US attack.
The decision to attack was not a group decision. Therefore it was a unilateral decision.
