Protest Against Drones And Guantanamo Bumped Off The News By World’s Oldest Gorilla

The Washington Post prides itself as a chronicler of national politics and a thorough journal of activities around the nation’s capital city. So when I learned of a January 11 protest against the Guantanamo detention center on the steps of the Supreme Court building, and of a January 12 protest against the illegal use of drones to kill innocent people at CIA headquarters, I thought the Washington Post would at least mention the occurrence of the events in their very own city.
I was wrong; they didn’t cover either protest. Instead, the Washington Post gave space to the birthday of the world’s oldest gorilla. The gorilla lives in Ohio.

To see pictures of the Guantanamo protest at the Supreme Court this past Friday, visit War is a Crime. To learn about the drone protest, which apparently shut down an entrance to the CIA for a time, visit DC Direct Action News.

Washingtonpost covers Colo the gorilla.
Colo, who is a mother of three, grandmother of 16, great-grandmother of seven and great-great-grandmother of two, celebrated her birthday with a cake and her favorite food, tomatoes.
