Dozens protest outside Obama headquarters, NATO country consulates
About 75 protesters marched from the building that houses Presid Afghanistan and other military action.
The protesters, many of them part of a women-organized peace group called Code Pink, formed a line along a sidewalk at 130 E. Radolph St. and joined in chants while shouting statements denouncing President Obama and NATO.
Tithe Barry, a demonstrator from Washington, D.C.held a cardboard drone to protest the United States' use of drone strikes, which he said have killed hundreds of innocent citizens.
"Barack Obama, a Nobel Peace Prize-winning president, needs to come clean," Barry shouted. "He's not for peace or for ending these out-dated wars."
The protesters formed their line in front of a barricade formed by about a dozen Chicago Police officers standing behind their bicycles.
