Activists Against Iraq War Refuse to Call it Quits
by Dogen Hannah

.....United for Peace and Justice has called for protests nationwide March 19.......


National activists say they have gained ground with tactical triumphs, that their fight to force America from Iraq is not lost. More mass protests are on the way, they say, including many on the second anniversary of the war's March 19 onset.

...Diminished support for the war in recent polls has suggested that activists have a growing and sympathetic audience. Polls have shown as well that more Americans than before favor bringing troops home immediately, although that segment falls short of a majority.

Yet it remains to be seen if a movement that two years ago was dubbed the world's second superpower for mobilizing mass opposition to the looming U.S.-led invasion of Iraq can capitalize on the latest public opinions.,,,,,
