MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Protesters gathered in Zeidler Park downtown to protest the Trump Administration and Israeli government's operations Saturday, Feb. 28.
CBS 58 spoke with organizers of Saturday's demonstration. They tell us they aren't buying the United States' reasoning for the strikes.
"Two things can't be true at the same time. They're saying they destroyed Iran's capacity to build nuclear weapons, but now they're saying they have nuclear weapons again, right? So, which one is it?" said Alan Chavoya, protester.
Tomorrow at 2 p.m. Milwaukee's Iranian community is holding a gathering at Colectivo's location at the lakefront for a celebration of Saturday's events.
