Feb. 18—The Washington, D.C. demonstration Sunday, Feb. 19—“Rage Against the War Machine”—organized by many co-sponsors from all points on the spectrum, has gathered momentum, which is evident not simply in the expected multi-state attendance, but in the attention across the U.S. and internationally, to act to stop the Global NATO confrontationist push, now at the point of threatening nuclear conflagration. From the speakers, to the crowds, people are responding, based on a common understanding of the threat and urgency. There are extreme differences among those mobilizing, but all share the view that stopping nuclear war is incontestably the priority.
