Iraq Veterans Against the War
Army Sergeant Matthis Chiroux was in Iraq since 2002; he saw terrible things and refused to go back. Chiroux’s big trial was yesterday: honorable discharge & he keeps his GI college fund.
Matthis Chiroux was on fox news (just the local news, listed after sports), getting foxed for wearing his flag upside down at the trial… fox failed to mention that flying ANY flag upside-down is THE “international signal for distress” used by ships for centuries. Other than local fox, it looks like a total media blackout.

46,000+ Protest G20 Summit
MSNBC – March 28, 2009
More than 150 groups threw their backing behind the “Put People First” march. Police said around 35,000 attended the demonstration. The biggest groups backing the demonstration include the Stop The War Coalition, whose supporters marched under the slogan “Jobs Not Bombs,” Friends of the Earth, and the Trades Union Congress. Berlin police estimated that around 10,000 people gathered in front of the capital’s city hall and more than 1,000 in Frankfurt, Germany’s banking capital, for similar demonstrations under the slogan: “We won’t pay for your crisis.”
