Hundreds Arrested in Anti-War Demonstrations

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) _ Police in riot gear pulled protesters from a human chain outside a federal office building and arrested more than 400 people Tuesday in one of the largest of many anti-war protests around the nation.

At one point, San Francisco police used Chemical Mace and riot batons to push demonstrators out of a downtown intersection.

Elsewhere, anti-war protesters gathered at the White House, the United Nations, on college campuses and at other federal buildings in a last-ditch effort to persuade President Bush not to attack Iraq.

″I think there should be millions of people here. Nobody should sit home and say its OK to go to war,″ said Chuck Nevin, one of the demonstrators in San Francisco.

The demonstration began around 6 a.m. when people began gathering around the 20-story Federal Building. Organizers put the crowd at 10,000 at its peak, but journalists estimated the attendance at about 3,000.

The protesters kept workers from entering the building. They carried signs saying ″Suppose Broccoli was Kuwait's Largest Export″ and ″No Blood for Oil.″ Forty of them zipped themselves in body bags in front of the building.

The protesters relinquished the building by early afternoon, and about 2,000 people began a spontaneous march through the city.

Protesters resisted arrest at the main entrance by clinging fiercely to one another as federal police pulled them apart and restrained their hands in plastic cuffs. Remaining protesters sat on the portico singing John Lennon's ″Give Peace A Chance″ as police continued to make arrests.

Federal authorities arrested 407 people, most of whom were charged with blocking an entrance, said Joseph Loerzel, chief operations officer for the Federal Protective Service.

San Francisco police arrested about 50 people, including break-away protesters who blocked a busy intersection a block from the Federal Building. City police used Mace and clubs to move the protesters out of the intersection.

Several hours later, about 350 protesters walked up ramps onto the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and blocked pre-rush hour traffic before about 50 surrendered for arrest and the crowd began breaking up, said California Highway Patrol spokesman Don Gappa.

In New York City, more than 5,000 people gathered outside the United Nations for a demonstration sponsored by the African American Coalition Against U.S. Intervention. At least 30 protesters were arrested for blocking traffic and disorderly conduct, police said.

Earlier, a small group of anti-war demonstrators tried to enter the Riverside Research Center, a defense contractor, and 19 were arrested for trespassing, police said.

In Boston, three windows were broken at the John F. Kennedy Federal Building during an anti-war demonstration, and one protester was arrested.

In Washington, National Park Service police arrested 55 young people who sat on the sidewalk in front of the White House. They were later released without charges.

As the midnight deadline came and went, about 1,500 demonstrators flocked to the White House. President Bush may have been asleep as his spokesman predicted, but there were no press officers on duty to say so.

In Eugene, Ore., 51 people, including 15 juveniles, were arrested for blocking the entrance to a federal building during a demonstration that drew 1,100 to 1,500 protesters.

More than 100 people gathered in downtown Chicago for an anti-war rally in honor of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., whose birthday was Tuesday. About 150 Chicago high school students skipped classes and ran more than three miles through city streets in a loosely organized expression of anti-war sentiment.

Also in Chicago, 200 to 300 people blocked traffic during the evening rush hour at several downtown intersections. At least 36 people were arrested citywide, police said.

In Olympia, Wash., about 3,000 people surged into the state Capitol building to demand that lawmakers pass a resolution condemning U.S. military involvement in the Middle East, authorities said. There were no arrests and 50 protesters were told they could spend the night in the House chambers.

In Atlanta, civil rights leaders led more than 1,000 marchers through the streets in remembrance of King and in protest of a possible war.

In Berkeley, Calif., about 500 high school students left class and demonstrated peacefully in Civic Center Park.

About 70 people demonstrated peacefully outside a federal office building in St. Louis; 300 outside a federal building in Portland, Ore.

College students demonstrated on some campuses. A rally by minority students at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor drew more than 600 people.

″People are really scared, to put it bluntly,″ said Michigan Student Assembly President Jennifer Van Valey. She said students understand why the nation is going to war ″and realize it's silly - to protect oil interests.″

/\  More good coverage here


35,000 people turned out in 1991 and protests continued for 4 days.

Protesters blockaded the Federal Building in SF.  etc.


I know that Israel looked at that and realized that they were going to have to do something, if they were going to do 9-11 and start a Huge Terror War 10 years later. 

Part of that Land-clearing operation is described in the Anton Chaitkin book, "The Ugly Truth about the ADL".

Chaitkin is a staff member at the EIR, AKA LaRouche.

Chaitkin and Tarpley do some of the most interesting reporting.  e.g. their book about George HW Bush.

They criticize Israel & the Jewish community without being too critical.

I can't decide if this is LaRouche's way of not getting shot, or if they are controlled opposition.

In the 'Ugly Truth' book, they describe Cointelpro2, run by the ADL in San Francisco in the early 1990's.


I ran into Cointelpro3 in the mid-90's.  They switched to operating out of Jews for Jesus offices.

The primary purpose was to change the intellectual environment of SF & Silicon Valley from the Pronounced Anti-war bias evident in the 1991 protest & riots.

It worked.  The US started killing a lot more civilians during the Terror War, and yet there was pretty close to Nothing in the way of anti-war protests in SF, in 2002, 2003, etc.

I've always been under the impression that LaRouche's focus was in opposing Britain.  I remember seeing something - maybe a sign or placard - decades ago in which he said the Queen was the biggest drug dealer in the world, obviously alluding to the opium wars against China.

Might be controlled opposition.  Don't think anybody would become an "anti-semite" if they were to follow LaRouche. 

I seem to have heard that, before he was "right-wing," LaRouche was a "Marxist," or "left-wing," or whatever.  Somebody trying to imply that he was an opportunist, and to discredit him, maybe.

Decades ago, his organization got caught in some sort of campaign finance scam.  I grew up in Northern Virginia, which, at that time, was just full of mean little towns, one of which was Leesburg.

I laughed my ass off when I read about LaRouche.  They had located in Leesburg, and they were doing some trick with credit cards or something, and all the mean people in Leesburg were spying on them, collecting evidence against them.

I experienced one of the Aggressive Sales tactics used by LaRouche.

They send you a bunch of magazines, old EIR's, and say it's free.

Then they bill you.

Paradoxically, 2 of the most important historical data points that helped me understand the world -
*  Bush-Harriman support of WW2 Germany even after Pearl Harbor had been attacked.
*  the Cointelpro2 operation run out of ADL offices

were both the work of Anton Chaitkin.

Very mixed feelings.

Super grateful for the historical insight.

AND, Anton's father was one of the Jews that rushed to Europe when it was safe to begin creating the Holocaust myth.

The last time I talked to Anton, he was laughing because he had scheduled hip replacement surgery for the day of the 2000 election (Bush-Gore.)


If I could, I would ask Anton if we could record a dialogue, explaining why I hate Militant Jews (the Fed - Titanic sinking with 3 Fed-opposed bankers - punishment of Germany - Israel doing 9-11, history), how Anton helped me understand, and seeing what data-points Anton disagrees with.

I think that to really get the facts -
*  a person needs to learn Hebrew
*  a person needs access to the most obscure histories hidden in various Rabbi's libraries.

I wonder if any of that history is stored in the Stanford area.


Are there any Gentile TIU members who have taken the trouble to learn Hebrew ?
