Ralph Nader and Daniel Ellsberg plan to participate in a major protest on Saturday in Washington, D.C., to mark the eight-year anniversary of the U.S-led invasion of Iraq. They were interviewed on Democracy Now! March 18.

Ellsberg will risk arrest by participating in nonviolent civil disobedience actions by Veterans for Peace, among others, to protest the ongoing military occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. "Innocents are being slaughtered," Nader says. "Why don't we say what's on the minds of many legal experts? That the Obama administration is committing war crimes. And if Bush should have been impeached, Obama should be impeached."

  • We would have a much stronger peace movement if DemocracyNow, Veterans for Peace, etc. would embrace libertarian antiwar leaders and supporters as well as only those on the Left. Instead of two parallel efforts we could have a larger, stronger coalition. Antiwar.com covers the whole spectrum.

  • @TheTruthAboutFloyd That's 250,000 registered Democrats in FLORIDA. Explain that. Oh wait, you can't blame Democrats for anything, huh? That's I left this blind, hypocritical party. Thank God... And look at Obama has done for the country. Just continued the same old policies as Bush. More war, renewing FISA and the Patriot Act, etc., etc. etc. Please spae me. This party ain't shit but running the country further in the ground.

  • @OhZoneFan Actually yes. Gore was more militaristic in his platform than Bush. Was for the death penalty, NAFTA, cut off Aid to Dependent Families, etc. And one of the founding fathers of the Sierra Club said, "The Clinton-Gore administration has done more harm to the environment that Reagan, Bush, and Bush Jr. combined." No wonder the Democrats were lost the 2000 election. If things were so great they should've won in a landslide. But 250,000 registered Democrats voted for Bush instead!

  • Yeah, you tell it like it is Ralph!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @TheTruthAboutFloyd Actually, the main reason the Democrats lost the house was voter apathy which is very common in midterms. In fact, the Democrats did better in 2010 than they did in 1994. Your all or nothing attitude just helps the GOP. Keep voting independent and get more Cons. Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good.. or in case of Dems, the much better of two evils. Seriously do you think we would be in the horrific mess if Gore's win hadn't been stolen by the Supremes? Oh, well.

  • @OhZoneFan Watch the You Tube vid "Ralph Nader: The People's Champion" and you will see how wrong you are. I voted for Gore in 2000 and am glad I woke up and am not a Democrat anymore. All they do is blame others and fail to take responsibility.

    Why is it that the Democrats lost the House after Obama took the White House. Cuz they're hypocrites who don't do a damn thing! Oh but blame Nader for that too, huh? Wake up...

  • @malloymk OHMY! He lied about the impact his spoiler candidacy had on the Florida election. Even going back to early Nader, he exaggerated the danger of the Corvair, which was a very innovative car, America's only mass produced rear-mounted air-cooled engine. But, most importantly, CONTINUALLY helping the people who are supposedly diametrically opposed to his belief system, makes him the ** biggest liar in history ** BY HIS ACTIONS! Nade is an evil bastard hypocrite stealth fascist! lulz

  • IMPEACH OBAMA NOW! /watch?v=30JjhH0_fds
