On February 15, 2003, millions of people marched in more than 600 cities around the world against U.S. President George W. Bush’s plans to invade Iraq. In Rome alone, three million people took part in the protest! Alas, a few weeks later the combat operation in Iraq began.
President Bush had been claiming for months that Iraq was violating UN resolutions on weapons of mass destruction. Within days of the UN address in September 2002, calls for action against his policies began.
