March 27th, 2002: American pop-punk band Green Day announces it will be splitting up indefinitely, as they feel that: "We've effectively told our message and have nothing else to say that hasn't been said." Though some die-hard fans mourn the loss of the group, most are not phased, having believed the group had been in decline since they released Warning.
March 30th, 2002: Former Governor of Texas George W. Bush states in an interview with Rolling Stone that he is: "Appalled by President Gore's refusal to take action against Iraq. Just because we won in Afghanistan doesn't mean that we can ignore the problems in the other parts of the world." Immediately, controversy erupts, with many conservatives backing Bush's views, as they agree that: "The job isn't done". Soon, protests start erupting across conservative college campuses demanding that the President commit to war in Iraq. A controversial image of a swarm of college students holding up signs such as "GET THE HELL INTO IRAQ" AND "MAKE WAR, NOT LOVE", is dubbed "the anti-Woodstock".
