The United States Of America and its allies have started bombarding Iraq. At the same time, the Ann Arbor populace are showing their discontent against the unjust war.
A few pro-peace movements organized a successful rally today. The students’ movements started the peace rally at the Diag at 1700 hours. A few students spoke in the name of peace. Later, the students marched along N. University St., E. Liberty, W. Liberty St. and Main St. before joining other war protesters in front of the Ann Arbor Federal Building. I joined the procession at about 1700 hours and left the rally at about 1900 hours.
Although it was raining, the event was a success. The anti-war march received a huge turnout and the peaceful Tree Town was transformed into a noisy city. A few chanted were shouted. Among them were “What do we want? Peace. When do we want it? Now”, “Who let the dog out? Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush!”, “Who is the bastard? Bush!” Candle vigil was also carried out with thousand of people standing and singing in front of the Federal Building.























For peace!
