HeadlineMar 19, 2007

In Washington, antiwar protests began on Friday night when 222 people were arrested outside the White House. Many were Christian peace activists who had just taken part in a prayer service at the National Cathedral. This is Faith Garlington, who traveled to Washington from Atlanta, Georgia.

Faith Garlington: “We, as Christians, do not support his invasion of Iraq. We want the troops out immediately. We, as Christian, do not want, we do not want this war fought in the name of Christ.”
