Veterans for peace

From the Dec. 16th demonstration in D.C.:

A hundred and thirty-one people were arrested in a civil disobedience action at the White House protesting the continuing wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan and in Iraq. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges provides an extraordinary anti-war soliloquy which is inter-cut with interview of Veterans of the recent wars and with Daniel Ellsberg, who leaked the top secret Pentagon Papers.

This action was organized by the Veterans Peace
