On Saturday, thousands of people converged at the White House for the March 20th March on Washington—the largest anti-war demonstration since the announcement of the escalation of the Afghanistan war. By the time the march started at 2 p.m., the crowd had swelled up to 10,000 protesters.Transportation to Washington, D.C., was organized from over 50 cities in 20 states. Demonstrators rallied and marched shoulder to shoulder to demand U.S. Out of Iraq and Afghanistan Now, Free Palestine, Reparations for Haiti andNo sanctions against Iran as well as Money for jobs, education and health care!

Speakers at the Washington rally represented a broad cross section of the anti-war movement, including veterans and military families, labor, youth and students, immigrant right groups, and the Muslim and Arab American community.

On March 20th 2010 protesters gathered in front of the White
House to exercise their rights to speak out against the war crimes
perpetrated by the Obama administration, done in the name of Americans.
But the heavy police presence cracked down on peaceful protesters and
made arrest as well as pushing protesters around like brutal thugs. I
(the camera man) was treated like a criminal just for standing and
filming the arrest of Cindy Sheehan, Matthis Chiroux & Elaine
Brower.Sadly I believe we have entered an age where Americans are
loosing their rights while standing up for others rights and the U.S.
police force is used against the people.http://answercoalition.org

Aggressive supporters of AIPAC express their frustration with peaceful demonstrators.  I decided not to include this footage with the other video I shot at the demonstration. These guys really put on a show.

Footage from San Francisco protest, just one of many demonstrations across the United States
protesting Obama's decision to send 30,000+ more troops into a war we
cannot possibly  win.
