Anti war activists inspect terror base in NW London as HQ sign converted into shrine for the dead.

Two anti war activists , Rosie Bremmer and David Heller have entered British Military Joint Forces HQ Northwood, NW London at 8 am to “check what they were up to” and to register their opposition to the slaughter being meted out on Afghanistan from Northwood.

Three other activists Ciaron o’ Reilly, Sr. Susan Clarkson, and Scott Albrecht (ex US Air Force) have been arrested on criminal damage charges after daubing the sign at the entrance to Northwood with a red substance and scattering photos of Afghan children. They then knelt before the sign in prayer for the dead.

O’Reilly said, “We have transformed this military sign into a shrine for the dead, the past, present and future victims of the state terror that flows from this military base. We remember the 500,000 children killed by sanctions on Iraq and the innocents slaugfhtered in Afghanistan by indiscriminate hi tech bombs after the last 2 months. We pray for people throughout the Third World who find themselves in the sights of the Bush and Blair administrations.”

Dozens of activists outside the base are obstructing traffic entering the base.



The action is sponsored by London Region CND, Campaign Against the Arms Trade, Fellowship of Reconciliation, Youth and Student CND, Aldermaston Women's Peace Camp and London Catholic Worker.
