Code Pink protests for second day in a row against US bombing of Afghan hospital

On the afternoon of October 7, Code Pink showed up in "bloody" doctor's coats in front of the White House. They were there to protest the US airstrike that killed doctors from Doctors Without Borders and their patients at a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan. The US has now changed their story 4 times, and talk of Taliban fighters at the hospital is near proof the airstrike was intentional. Doctors Without Borders is now treating this as a war crime until proven otherwise.
