They hope to draw attention to a particular war or conflict. There were thousands of Vietnam War protesters and their unyeilding resistance and protests did help to end the war. Due to the large and vocal protests about US involvement in Iraq, troops are now being brought home. Protest works.

Anti-war protestors want to create a wave of support to eventually cause politicians to end war and focus on peace. They were a big force during the Vietnam era, as hippes were a very strong presence and many dodged the draft.
