On Saturday, September 15, 2007, the ANSWER Coalition, a progressive antiwar group, sponsored a Mass March and Die-In in Washington, D.C. Its purpose was to raise the consciousness of enough people in this country to stop the illegal and immoral Iraq War and to prevent the Bush-Cheney Gang from launching a war against Iran. The rally took place in Lafayette Park, just north of the White House, where a number of prominent speakers were heard. It was followed by a march by the demonstrators to the U.S. Capitol, where a symbolic "Die-In" took place. The later affair was led by members of the Iraq Veterans Against the War. An estimated 1,000 of the protesters took part in the "Die-In" part of the event. Some of the demonstrators were also arrested by Capitol Hill police for failing to obey a police order, or for crossing a police line, and/or for possibly various other charges, too. One of the protesters arrested was Brian Becker, National Coordinator for the ANSWER Coalition. For additional details, and updates, on the Sept. 15th rally, and for the exact number of arrests, please see: www.ANSWERCoalition.org. At 11 PM, on 9/15/07, ANSWER was reporting that there had been about 200 arrests at the Capitol and that about 5,000 protesters had ended up participating in the "Die-In."

Islamo-facists? YOu mean like Bush/US allies in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, etc? Or how about the Judeo-fascists in Israel? Or the Capitalist-fascists in Indonesia and China? How about the right-wing Christo-fascists working with Zionists to bring about the Armageddon/annihilation of the world in order that they (the "saved") get to go to heaven in the rapture while the rest of the world burns?
Peace is not protest. Peace is simply not killing each other. The only true path to peace is money. Not protest and 'feeling good' about what you are 'standing' for.
ANSWER is a socialist group anyhow.
What exactly do they accomplish by doing stuff like this? They just 'feel good' about themselves. They are as selfish as Bush himself.
