Antimilitarist activists from Alternativa Antilimitarista MOC of Alacant (Spain) enter a Radar Base and put the Flag of Peace
A group of antimilitarist activists from Alacant have gone today, 14 of november, to the highest mountain of Alacant, the Aitana mountain. Disgracely, the people of Alacant are not permitted to climb and enjoy that beautiful mountain because there is a militar base in it.
The activists have climbed the doubly wired fences to trespass the military base. Once inside, they have made their way up to the top of that beautiful mountain, and planted the Flag of Peace besides the geodesic vortex that indicates the top height of the province, just besides an enormous dome protecting the radar of the base. That flag is a symbol of the dissobedience we practice against war and injustice, and a symbol, too, of the society we want to construct.
The action has been developed within the Nonviolence limits. The air army soldiers and other militar staff in the area have not had capacity of reaction to try to prevent us from developing the action.
This action is part of an international action day 'War starts from Europe', which aims to visualise how Europe is involved in wars worldwide. On the 14th and 15th of november, there are actions in Belgium, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Finland, Great-Britain, Poland, Spain, Tjechie, and Sweden.
