Code Pink Protests 2000 Too Many

by No to Mass Murder Thursday, Oct. 27, 2005 at 7:10 PM

2,000 young U.S. men and women have died, and 150,000 Iraqi civilians, as a direct consequence of a war that never should have been.

Code Pink Protests 2...

Above: One protestor lights a candle for another.

This protest occurred tonight, Wednesday, 10/26/2005, at the L.A.. National Cemetery, at the foot of a monument extolling the first U.S. Imperialist War against the people of the Phillipines. Of course, it was not called the U.S.-Phillipine war; rather, it was called the Spanish-American war, as the people of the Phillipines were seen as pawns, not worthy enough to be true opponents.

Here was are, 107 years later, protesting yet another U.S. imperialist "adventure," with many tens of thousands of corpses to show for it, and still no end in sight. At least, this is called the "Iraq" war, which is perhaps more of a testament to the fact that no European nation was crazy enough to get mixed up in it than to any increased U.S. respect for non-white peoples.

So, we showed up once again, we protested, the cars roaring by honked their horns in support, and everyone agreed what a horror it is and was. Now what? How do we get the bombs to actually stop and the troops to come home? So far, no one has come up with an answer, but we are keeping up a presence to prevent the illusion of support from being falsely put forward, to prevent our own isolation, and to preserve our right to resist this outrage until such time as a viable strategy can be found.
