US anti-war groups prepare to mark 2000th Iraq death

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - From New York's Times Square to a lawn outside an old government building in Hawaii, American anti-war activists prepared to mark the 2,000th U.S. military death in Iraq with prayer, candlelight and protest.

In more than 300 events set for Wednesday, one day after the milestone number was reported, those who oppose the war in Iraq plan to gather at war memorials, federal buildings and in New York, on a city street corner -- as well as at such landmarks as Rockefeller Plaza and a recruiting station in Times Square.

"It is time to end the destruction, and rebuild war-torn Iraq and hurricane-ravaged communities in the U.S.," wrote the organizer of an event at the Montana state capitol building in the city of Helena.

...

Another vigil, by candlelight, was planned for the sidewalk outside the White House in Washington D.C., the site of a noisy demonstration and numerous arrests in September.
