WASHINGTON, September 5 (by Karin Zeitvogel for RIA Novosti) – As the United States inches closer to military action against Syria, the anti-war movement around the country is gathering steam and going beyond the usual street protests to voice opposition to the use of force against Syria.

Anti-war activists in dozens of other US towns and cities are also organizing local street protests on Saturday, with rallies due to be held from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Youngstown, Ohio.

Thanks Libloather.
...organized by Syrian Americans opposed to US military intervention.
Same group would have marched in favor of Syrian military intervention and occupation of Lebanon.
