As demonstrators cheered, police in faceshields took away protesters one by one after they had linked arms and sat in the street.


One of those arrested is 45-year-old Vanessa Acosta of Highland Park. She knelt in the street and prayed the rosary. She held a sign saying: "Peace is the first casualty in war." She held her hands together in prayer as she was led away.

The arrestees are among about 100 people who took part in what was called an "Interfaith Worship for Peace" that included Catholics, Jews, Muslims and others.

They said prayers and sang the old protest song "We Shall Not Be Moved." Some held signs saying "God weeps" and "Thou shall not kill."

They marched around the Federal Building at 8 a.m. Arrests began two hours later.

In West Los Angeles, five people waved American flags in front of the French Consulate to protest that country's opposition to the war.
