500,000 protesters marched through intermittent rain and wind in Rome Feb. 19 calling for an end to the war against Iraq and the occupation. The demonstrators also called for the freeing of Giuliana Sgrena, a journalist for the independent pro-communist daily "Il Manifesto," and other hostages. Sgrena is a long-time leader of the feminist and anti-war movements in Italy...
...Other demonstrators carried blow-ups of photos taken by Sgrena during her reporting in Iraq over the last two years of the countless civilian victims of the U.S. war, including the many young children who are victims of U.S. cluster bombs.
There are some loser Americans who rallied on behalf of the flattened idiot, Rachel Corrie -- they are probably comparable to the Italians who protest for commie Sgrena.
