Over 3000 people were at tonight's anti-war demonstration at the US embassy. There were many passionate speaches from many including Michael D Higgins(Labour), Kieran Allen (Socialist Worker) and Patricia McKenna (Green Party) as well as a young Libyan child who spoke on behalf of the children of the Middle Eastand. After speeches and chanting the crowd marched to the British Embassy where there was more chanting and then a minute silence to reflect the silence in Baghdad tonight as they wait for another night of bombing.
