Don't curse the darkness, light a candle.

Rubbish in Naples

Dear peace activists,

On June 2, the national holiday which celebrates the founding of the
Republic, and which lately has meant a military parade in Rome, there will
be a national demonstration against military bases and permanent war in
Naples.

Considering the huge US military presence in Naples, with all 4 branches of
the armed forces represented, as well as aircraft carriers, nuclear powered
submarines and fighter jets, our participation will be particularly important.

And as we have repeated in the past, the aggressive policies of the US
would not be possible without the logistical support provided by the 700-
900 US military installations on foreign soil, including over 100 in Italy
alone.

Let's join the people of Naples and all of Italy as they speak out against the
use of their territory for US policies of preventive war. Come with us to
Naples!

Important: Please let us know if you plan to participate so we can decide on
the best way to get there. Also let us know if you would like to join a working
group to decide on flyers, signs, banners, etc. info@peaceandjustice.it

See an English translation of the appeal below.

See you in Naples!
