Assumpte: [cm-Roma] Fwd: June 2, National Demo in Naples
Per chi il 2 giugno non potesse essere alla Ciemmona e si trovasse invece
dalle parti di Napoli, o per chi conosce gente in zona, o per chi ...
insomma, questa e' una manifestazione importante in questi climi di guerra
permanente...

Il 2 giugno e' la festa della Repubblica, una festa nazionale che da
qualche anno si celebra con la parata militare. A Napoli una manifestazione
contro la guerra permanente e le basi militari.

"... perche' non e' un caso che il contrario di militare sia civile."
(P. Cacucci)

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@???

See an English translation of the appeal below.

Security: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/naples.htm

See you in Naples!

National Demonstration Against Military Bases and Permanent War

Call for a national demonstration June 2 in Naples

Aircraft carriers, fighter jets, submarines, planes, helicopters,
missiles,
bombs, death machines of all types are stationed at military installations
throughout Italy.

In Italy there are over 100 military bases and installations, from Bolzano
to
Lampedusa. These installations serve not to defend the local populations
from attack but rather constitute a grave danger for the security of the
citizens, taking resources away from civil society and instead investing
in
permanent war.

Aircraft carriers, fighter jets, submarines, planes, helicopters,
missiles,
bombs, death machines of all types are stationed at military
installations.
Not to mention the devastating environmental impact caused by the
presence of such arms. We are all participating, without knowing it, in
war.

We have said NO to Dal Molin in Vicenza and we will continue to express
our opposition, but the same goes for the rest of Italy, littered with
military
bases and on the front lines of global war.

We propose that on June 2 there be a national demonstration against
military bases in Naples.

Why Naples?

Naples is a city invaded with military installations, and one of the main
ports
supporting the conflicts in the Middle East as well as other areas: the
command for the US Navy for Europe, Asia (Middle East) and Africa is
located here. This city has become a hub for aircraft carriers, nuclear
powered submarines and weapons of all types.

Why June 2?

June 2 is the day commemorating the birth of the Italian Republic, and we
want to celebrate it remembering that Italy is and must remain a state
founded on the rule of law and this holiday must not be represented by a
military parade.

June 2, 2008 join us in Naples: to say "No to military bases, no to war "
