New York, NY – November 16, 2007. In NYC the third iteration of the Iraq Moratorium began with a press conference at City Hall. Called by the World Can’t Wait, the conference featured speakers from CodePINK, Granny Peace Brigade, Not In Our Name, Movement for a Democratic Society, Students for a Democratic Society, Peace Action and students from the John Jay College of Criminal Justice. After a lively press conference marchers gathered at the south end of Union Square. From there a march processed up Broadway with stops at L3 Communications and Bechtel Corporation – ultimately ending dramatically at Times Square where protesters clad in orange jumpsuits and black hoods knelt before the military recruiting center. It was a spirited protest – and a huge success by any standards.
