45 Arrested at Die In War Prostest

by reZz (rezrezrez [at] fastmail.fm)
At Least 45 were arrested today at a "Die-In" to represent casualties of the war in Iraq. Protesters called for "Troops Out Now!" as SF police arrested them for occupying Market street in outrage at the fourth year as the war in Iraq drags into its fourth year today in defiance of worldwide popular outrage at its legacy of torture, slaughter of innocents and vast misappropriation of both Iraq's oil, US tax money and mercenary and contract labor from around the world.

A protester was forced by two cops into a pain hold with her arms stretched behind her back as she and protesters scream that she was not resisting arrest or provoking violence. They continue until someone calls out the number on one cop's helmet.

The war in Iraq is wrong!
There is no right reason for our troops to be there.
Bush lied about why we had to go to war.
Nothing he said was the truth.
Here is the truth:
Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.
This is supposed to be a war on terror, yet Iraq had nothing to do with terrorism.
Saddam did not even like or trust bin Laden.
Since George Bush started this war, Iraq has become a haven for terrorists, and no one is safe there.
Thousands and thousands (180,000 to 500,000) of innocent Iraqis have died.
Iraq is a hellhole and getting worse.
Bush has no clue how to fix the mess.
The money spent on this war now exceeds $359 billion dollars.
Why would anyone in their right mind support it?
It is wrong.
I support our troops but not the war.
Bring them home.
Send Bush and Cheney over there.
They want it.
Those who protest the war are right.
Bush is wrong.
Power to the people!
I am,
