  • LOS ANGELES, September 25, 2006 -- A coalition of faith based groups succeeded in closing the army recruitment center in Hollywood today. Early Monday morning a group of about 50 marched down Hollywood Blvd. to the recruitment center and proceeded to block the entrance. They were prepared to risk arrest but it did not come to that. Police monitored the group but did not interfere. It is believed that the center knew in advance of the action and closed because of the demonstration.

    About 25 people set up an all day vigil at the front doors to make sure the recruitment center did not try to reopen. One of the people who took part, Ann Bishop, said of the action "We may have saved a few lives. Somebody didn't sign up, and maybe having a day to think it over they won't sign up, and they won't go some where and be killed or kill any body".

  • Thousands of Peace-Loving people marched through the streets of Hollywood today demanding an immediate end to the US military occupation of Iraq. The war in Iraq began three years ago when Mr. Bush, in a blatant act of aggression, ordered the US military to invade the sovereign nation of Iraq.

    As justification, Mr. Bush cited knowledge of Iraq's possession Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). No WMD were ever found in Iraq. Three years later, the US military continues to occupy the nation of Iraq, despite polls which indicate that a majority of Iraqis and US citizens want the US troops to be withdrawn. ...
