Protesters March Against Escalation of War in Afghanistan, Ongoing Occupation of Iraq

On Saturday, October 17, nearly 400 people gathered in Minneapolis to protest the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.  The demonstration was part of a national day of action to oppose the U.S. occupation of both countries.  Additional photos below.

Anti-war events were held in 50 cities across the U.S. in response to the recent escalation of the war in Afghanistan where troop levels have more than doubled since Obama took office.  There are currently 67,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan and 1,000 more are headed there by the end of December.  General Stanley McChrystal, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, warned that unless additional troops are deployed, “the conflict will likely result in failure.”  Obama recently told Congress that he has ruled out a U.S. withdrawal and will not consider cutting back troop levels.  Right now he's considering McChrystal’s request for up to 80,000 more U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
