Page 1 2 3 4 5 6 7By John Catalinotto
Feb 19, 2003--A worldwide anti-war movement of a size and breadth never seen before has arisen to challenge the aggressive arrogance of U.S. imperialism and its closest allies.
On Feb. 15 and 16, millions of people demonstrated worldwide. Ten million had been predicted, but the turnout far exceeded that. They protested in 600 cities in 100 countries, from Antarctica

Called last Nov. 10 when the European Social Forum met in Florence, the international day caught fire worldwide as Washington's intransigence showed the world that it, and not Baghdad, is the main threat to world peace. The demonstrators' political message was clear: no war on Iraq, with or without a UN resolution.
It is fitting that the largest demonstrations on Feb. 15 took place in the major NATO countries most closely aligned with the Bush administration's pro-war policy.
