Africa/Global: No to US bases

A recent meeting brought together 125 participants from 34 countries to strategise against the proliferation of US military bases worldwide as a result of the "war on terror". The meeting provided a space for people to share their experiences living with US military presence and present their own local struggles to confront it. More importantly, the conference gave them an opportunity to put their heads together and begin thinking about a joint and collectively coordinated global campaign against US bases.
