The Americans do so live on TV, and the Iraqis, who trust American technical wizardry not to harm them, take to the streets to watch live in person. That same technical wizardry has made it pos ible to watch the war as it unfolds though portable satel­ lite transmitters, videophones, image intensifier· and tiny "lipstick" cameras. The pictures range from al­ most studio quality to jerky, blurry green-lit shapes. Newsreels, the source of images for World War · I and II and the Korean War, were heavily edited. often for dramatic effect, and often weeks or months late. In Vietnam, the images were less edited but still days late. In the 1991 Persian Gulf War, Americans c;aw the war mostly through Pentagon-provided images from the nose cameras of missiles and bombs.

A-B residents join up with massive anti-war rally RALLY, from page 1 pie came together from hundreds of miles away to send a message of peace to our leaders," said Brian Corr, one of the emcees of the event and a Brighton Center resident Police estimate the crowd of war dis­ senters, some not old enough to walk and others carrying signs reading "Grandmothers for Peace," at about 25,000. Organizers give estimates closer to50,000. ''This is a local issue," said Pat Walsh, who sported a sign and button from her Vietnam War protest days. "People are corning from neighborhoods to fight in this war ano die in this war," Walsh's poster, which read "War is not healthy for children and other living things," was a icon of the turbulent war protests more than 30 years ago. She said she is disappointed to have to pull out these relics once again. "I can't believe, all these years later, I'm in another demonstration," she said. Walsh and the A-B group were joined by college students, congregations of all denominations, town and neighborhood civic organizations and other activists on the Common. A giant paper mache George W. Bush marched along with the crowd, as well as a Bush and Cheney duo wearing con­ victs' stripes. Thousands carried signs bearing slo­ gans like "Health care not war fare," "Thou shall not kill," and "George W. Bush is pro life: Offer not valid in cer­ tain locations."
