Council Marks Second Year Anniversary of Iraq War with Interfaith Leaders
Council Chairperson, Abdul Malik Mujahid, represented
Chicago�s Muslim community at a March 20th anti-war
rally, marking the second anniversary of the Iraq war.
The interfaith rally began at the Chicago Temple,
where protesters heard Chairperson Mujahid praising
the soldiers who spoke out against the torture at Iraq�s
Abu Ghraib Prison, as well as the journalists who
reported the story. The rally then proceeded east to
Grant Park, headed by a horse-drawn casket draped
with a US flag. Family members of fallen soldiers, as
well as anti-war politicians were also present.
