Because Saddam being in power would have meant no war. Again, they marched to keep him in power, but not marched to support him. (although if you go to sites like www.protestwarrior.com you'll find people who marched that did).

People wern't marching up to the UN demanding he be removed and tried like Milosevic was. People were marching to prevent a war. The only action that would have removed him.
