"More than 2.500 anti-war demonstrators staged a 'simulated saturation bombing' in front of the corporate headquarters of International Telephone and Telegraph here, to protest Nixon?s escalation and ITT?s involvement in the Indochina war. In New York, the demonstrators sought to dramatize what happens daily to people in Indochina during the bombing. Thousands of parachutes called 'simulated electronic battlefield sensors' were thrown into the Park avenue area from between 49th and 50th streets from an upper floor of the Warldorf-Astoria Hotel. Such 'sensors' pinpoint U.S. anti-population bombing raids. Tens of thousands of leaflets shaped like the anti-personnel bombs (guava, pineapple, and dragontooth bombs) used in Southeast Asia fluttered down on Park avenue as the sounds of a bombing raid blared from sound effect devices. Each leaflet explained the bomb it represented and its effect on human beings and called upon people to join the protest. Those demonstrators who were 'killed' by the bombing lay down in front of ITT headquarters, blocking traffic. They smeared themselves with ketchup and red-dies to simulate blood. The 'survivors' of the bombing were rounded up by members of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and placed in 'concentration camps.' The VVAW members carried toy M-16s and had signs attached to their backs reading 'Saigon Police.' The survivors, or 'prisoners of war' were herded into the street in front of the ITT and made to sit." -- Ron Tyson, "2,500 in New York Stage a 'Bombing' Raid at ITT Office," New York Daily World, May 12, 1972.
