March on the Pentagon

On Saint Patrick’s Day, March 17, 2007, the anniversary of the start of the United States invasion of Iraq, an estimated at 15,000 to 25,000 demonstrators marched in the bitter cold from the Vietnam War Memorial, down Route 27 to the Pentagon North Parking Lot. A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop War & End Racism) Coalition organized the event in symbolic tribute to the historic 1967 march to the Pentagon. The march capped a week of anti-war protests in Washington. Prominent speakers at the event included anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan, former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark and U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.).

We're here in the shadow of the war machine. It's like being in the shadow of the death star. They take their death and destruction and they export it around the world. We need to shut it down. - Cindy Sheehan




No matter who the father of Anna Nicole's Baby is or who wins the next season of American Idol or what new song is on the radio, people are dying, both from this country and in massive numbers in the Iraqi Civil War. - Hip Hop activist Immortal Technique

The Eagles believe 'That the war memorials are sacred ground; as such, we will not allow them to be desecrated, used as props for political statements, or treated with anything less than the solemn and heartfelt respect they–and the heroes they honor–deserve.'
