Anti-War Protests After Airstrike Kills General

(Providence, RI)--A crowd assembled at the Rhode Island State House on Saturday with an anti-war message.The demonstration came after President Trump ordered an airstrike on Friday killing Iranian top general Qasem Soleimani [[ kah-sam soo-leh-mahn-ee ]] in Iraq.Some at the State House were concerned about the United States being involved in an endless war.Congressman David Cicilline, who is on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said in a statement that Soleimani was a terrorist and a murderer and that the world is better without him, but that the responsibility to declare war rests with Congress and that President Trump took unilateral action that could result in wide-scale conflict.
