The words of Bob McEllrath, president of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, who went on to say, “We’re loyal to America, and we won’t stand by while our country, our troops and our economy are being destroyed by a war that’s bankrupting us to the tune of $3 trillion.” He was referring to a strike at West Coast ports yesterday. The strike was in protest of the war in Iraq.
Could this be the start of a grass roots movement similar to that which stopped the war in Vietnam?
