Peace Activists Launch New Antiwar Coalition
--------------------------------------------



Back in the United States, several antiwar groups have formed a new
coalition to oppose the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and other US
military actions abroad. The group “End US Wars” held an inaugural rally
Saturday in front of the White House. Democratic Congress member Dennis
Kucinich was among those to address the crowd.

Rep. Dennis Kucinich: “We have money for war, but not for jobs; money
for war, but not for healthcare; money for war, but not for education;
money for war, but not for housing; money for war, but not for
peace—billions for bailouts, bonuses and bombs.”
