It’s been four years since the invasion of Iraq and to mark this horrendous anniversary, there’s been rallies in major cities around the world this weekend. Of course, bloggers were there and catching the events on film. So, as part of the first ‘Far-Left linkage,’ I’ve got a selection of posts of the demonstrations from around the world.
In Sydney, a few hundred converged on Town Hall to call for the troops out as well as the release of David Hicks, an Australian locked up in Guantanamo Bay.
Washington DC played host to thousands of Christians holding a candlelight vigil outside of the White House to express their opposition to a war that was justified by Christian rhetoric.
Albuquerque was full of powerful and creative placards as around 1,000 people turned out to oppose the war.
Tens of thousands of protesters, including Cindy Sheehan turned out at the Pentagon to oppose the war.
Thousands marched in Los Angeles to compliment the rallies in other parts of the States.
Admin note: If any blogger out there has a post about the protests this weekend, let me know and I’ll see if I can add you to the links. I’ll be making this feature more regular in order to publicize the Far-Left’s presence in the Blogosphere, and also, Bloggers presence amongst the Far-Left.

Why didn’t you post about the pro-troops/protect the wall rally in DC that took place at the same time on Saturday? They outnumbered you guys buy a 3-1 margin. Face it, the American public just isn’t behind surrendering or cutting off the funds to our troops.

Jim, we’re the Far-Left. We’re not on the side of those racist, inhumane fuckers who support the slaughter of Iraqis and working class people having to die for profit.
Despite the size of the pro-war rally, the majority of Americans are opposed to the war. This opposition to the war is growing and you’re quickly becoming an insignificant minority. The US have lost the war in Iraq; they can’t win and opposition is growing. Really, you should just give up.
