yesterday.

without fuss and without months of preparation and centralised planning and leadership, hundreds of thousands paid visits to their local USAF airbases.

in the words of the spokesperson for IU (the marxist grouping itself a part of a four party electoral alliance in Spain)
"we must reclaim our bases from the US airforce the war machine would not have faciliatated the invasion of Iraq had the peoples of Europe not facilitated the US war machine".
great day was had by all.
lots of socialists being loud and happy.

The UK group "war resisters" is of course calling for a global day of action on this theme April 4-5 so if you missed the first action you still have time to pick up on the trend.
