Stop the War demo London
People gathered at Speakers’ Corner in Hyde Park, London, at noon. Then more people gathered. Thousands (20,000 according to the police and 100,000 accroding to the organiser. It’s safe to guess the real figure lies in between). Some chanted “We’re all Hezbollah”. Not true. But we were all for an immediate ceasefire in Lebanon. The people below were Hezbollah though.

One of the girls below was too. Asked if she was aware that her dress is unacceptable by Hezbollah standards, she giggled.

The woman below, however, only happened to be holding a Hezbollah placard. On the other side was a picture of children. “That’s what I’m here for,” she said.

She refused to be photographed holding Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah’s portrait (it’s on the other side of sign below). She was no Hezbollah supporter…

nor was she…
or these chaps outside the US embassy…

or their colleague below…
or these two women…
or Stop the War Coalition convenor Lindsey German, pictured below talking to the BBC…
or this little boy, observing children’s shoes chucked outside Downing Street, official residence of Britain’s only Republican senator.
