Demo in support of Lt. Watada, 6/26/06
by Sadie Sabot
Thursday Jun 29th, 2006 10:12 AM
Lt. Ehren Watada is the first comissioned officer to publicly refuse orders in the Iraq War. Several hundred people rallied on June 26, 2006 to support him.

The program was MC'd by Veteran Ed Holmes (also of SF Mim Troupe fame). the raging grannies, including legendary Faith Petric, performed several anti-war songs, and Veterans from the Vietnam war and the Gulf War spoke.
