Nice pics & thanks for getting them up so quickly. RMN has an AP story about the rallies in Washington DC & San Francisco already, but nothing about us in Denver yet.

The Israeli aggression against Lebanon is a horrible war crime by the Zionist pigs aided and abetted by the Bush crime cartel. The news hides the truth from American people thanks to neo-zionist controlled media, this & the other wars in the middle east are a direct link to 911, which Bush & his butchers instigated, Absolute disgust is felt by the good people throughout the nation & overseas, these warmongering parasites are a disgrace to the world !!

"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget." - Arundhati Roy (weroy.org)

Boy George and all his family and friends are making big money by murdering anybody anywhere on a pack of lies.....

Oh, Did I call the War Monger Liar Bush, Boy George??? Boy George is much more of a man....

The whole cabinet should be arrested and tried for war crimes, along with the entire Isreali Cabinet.......

What is it going to take to stop these murderers?????

Why does nobody care????

Children are being murdered by these monsters and Americans just brush it off and head down to the local icecream parlor for a cone or a flurry for thier fat kid to suck on while he watches dvds in the back seat......

America is really getting sick....

Sunday's Denver Post said there were 350 of us. I put it at closer to 1000, at least at our most populous point. Of course, it needs to be ten, a hundred, a thousand times that; but, under the circumstances, I thought it was pretty good. It felt like we actually got some reaction, other than: "Oh, look, George, anti-war protesters, how quaint!" So, we might conclude that militancy can be effective!!

Definately 1000, maybe 1200.

And yes, it was as militant as it was disciplined, marred only by the occasional white, peace-police girls scolding men of color like sanctimonious school marms. Fortunately, everyone there seemed very clear about the murderous atrocities being committed against them and/or their families in Lebanon, Palestine, and Amerika, so they were not deterred from their militancy.

For me, the best part of this particular rally and march were all the people carrying enlarged photographs from Lebanon/Palestine that photojournalists in those countries risked their lives to get. It was a great way to honor those reporters' work and bring the message home.

Lotta fire in the People, for sure, and I was proud to be a part of it.

Thanks to everyone for your comments here. I hope you all will continue to visit in the future.
