In Washington DC, hundreds of thousands of people braved frigid weather to rally in front of Congress and march in the streets to oppose war and to demand peace and justice. A second march on the 19th included civil disobedience and resulted in over a dozen arrests.

Protests also took place in many other cities across the US and in countries such as Turkey, Pakistan, Japan, and Britain. There was even a protest in Antarctica. Read the Europe Anti-War Report
