Peace march numbers
No one mentioned the deity at the U.N. yesterday, or claimed they were fighting for good against evil. Bush, on the other hand, can't keep from mentioning God or good and evil, says this columnist.
Meanwhile, here are conservative estimates of the number of people attending protest marches in world cities:
London -- 750,000
Madrid -- 660,000
Barcelona -- 500,000
New York -- 500,000
Berlin -- 500,000
Damascus -- 200,000
Melbourne -- 150,000
Paris -- 100,000
Amsterdam -- 70,000
Oslo -- 60,000
Glasgow -- 60,000
Dublin -- 80,000
Brussels -- 50,000
Seville -- 60,000
Bern -- 40,000
Stockholm -- 35,000
Los Angeles -- 30,000
Copenhagen -- 25,000
Montreal -- 20,000
Canberra -- 16,000
Vienna -- 15,000

Today, the world; tomorrow, San Francisco. Yes, I'm going, rain or shine.
