NATO Notebook IIIBy Steve RhodesIt's certainly not the weekend - or month, really - we would have seen had the G8 come here too, but there have been some moments of note. Let's take a look. 1. "Veterans who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan returned their service medals to visiting NATO representatives Sunday to express their opposition to America's role in these conflicts, and to demand better care for returning forces," the Huffington Post reports. "Members of Iraq Veterans Against the War organized a day-long protest, including a musical performance at the Petrillo Music Shell, a march and rally through the city and a ceremony at Michigan and Cermak where participants hoped to return their medals to visiting NATO generals. "While Rev. Jesse Jackson and other political leaders spoke to demonstrators before they began a massive march through downtown Chicago, the group was unable to bring visiting NATO generals to accept their medals, so the 45 participating veterans hurled them at McCormick Place, where NATO meetings were taking place, according to ABC."
