Antiwar protests on Saturday took place not only in Washington and in Spain (see previous post) but in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Istanbul, Copenhagen, Prague, Athens, Thessalonika, Nicosia, St. Petersburg (FL), San Diego, Hartford, Walnut Creek, Sacramento and probably a number of other cities from which I haven't seen the reports yet.

FEATURED QUOTE

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."


-- Cecil Day-Lewis from Where Are The War Poets?
