DULUTH, MN -- Members of the twin ports community are making their voices heard about the United States' involvement and tensions in the Middle East.

A rally was held Saturday afternoon at the Minnesota Power Plaza in Downtown Duluth.

The rally was hosted by members of the Lake Superior Socialist Resurgence.

There were dozens of protesters present, signs in hand, voicing their disapproval of a potential war with Iran through chants and a vigil.

"Young people both from the United States and from Iran will die needlessly while big corporations rake in millions of dollars in profits, This is reckless war behavior that we are fighting against," said protester Bob Dobrow.

The Facebook event for the rally states, " It is our contention that the U.S. has no right to bomb or occupy countries in the Middle East. It is for the peoples of the Middle East to decide who their leaders will be, what happens to their oil and who they decide to trade with."

The protesters in Duluth were just a small fraction of the millions that hit the streets across the United States Saturday, as part of a national day of action sponsored by anti-war and peace organizations.
