‘US, NATO, hands off Syria’ – hundreds of New Yorkers during massive protest against US strike on Syria

Hundreds of people protested at New York’s Times Square on Thursday over possible US plans to strike Syria .

“US, NATO, hands off Syria,” chanted hundreds of protesters, weaving through thousands of tourists, some carrying pictures of President Bashar Al-Assad, and some just declaring themselves against another US war.

“It is another lie and a lot of people are going to die for nothing,” Khaldon Makhoul, 43, a physician who moved from Syria to America 17 years ago, said. “Where is the chemical weapons? Until now we didn’t find it. US soldiers will die for nothing. Where is the evidence”?
