[Marxism] World-wide demonstrations Friday against Iraq war



Would like to hear about other demonstrations
against the Iraq war and the attempts by the
US to sack Fallujah. It does more and more
seem like a mixture of Dresden, and Tet.

Only the lack of nuclear bombs make this
not yet into Hiroshima. And in Tokyo:

Hundreds of Japanese protestors gathered in
front of the Japanese Prime Minister's home.
Here at the Prensa Latina site you can see
a sign saying "Koizumi, why don't YOU go
to Iraq instead of the 3 hostages."

I went to the Federal Building in Westwood
in Los Angeles where an very spirited rally
took place. Great photos below at indymedia.

500 at Westwood anti-war rally
GREAT PHOTOS LINKED BELOW

Some 500 people participated at the April 9th, Westwood
demonstration against the U.S. occupation of Iraq. The
demonstrators lined Wilshire Blvd. with signs and banners,
receiving enormous positive response from those driving by
the scene. The crowd was made up of Asians, Latinos,
African Americans, Anglos... basically every community was
represented. Favorite signs read: "So many things to
protest, so little sign.", "U.S. out of everywhere!", and
"Stop the 9/11 cover up." There was no violence and no
right wing hecklers, but a protestor was arrested when he
placed an anti war sign on the war memorial stature on the
corner of Wilshire and Veteran.

At around 7:30 p.m., the crowd had dwindled to around 70,
but it was decided to hold a march through the Westwood
Village area. Chanting "Hey Bush - what do you say - how
many kids have you killed today?!", and "U.S. out of
Iraq!", the marchers snaked their way through the Village,
disrupting the Friday evening complacent scene of movies,
cafes, and cheap entertainment.
