This will be IVAW's second Operation First Casualty. Here is a recap of a past event in DC.
In actions staged around the city, local activist volunteers acted as civilians in realistic portrayals of actual interactions between U.S. troops and Iraqi civilians. The result was a lot of shouting, commotion and tension in the start of the workweek – giving the American public a taste of what Iraqis and U.S. troops deal with day in and day out.
