THIS DEMO HAS BEEN CALLED IN RESPONSE TO THE USE OF RAF FAIRFORD BY U.S STEALTH BOMBERS, which will be used to Carpet Bomb Iraqi Cities. The Pentagon chose to locate nuclear & stealth bombers at Fairford because alternative locations in Spain were feared to face too much local opposition. LET'S SHOW THEM .......

MARK THOMAS & ROB NEWMAN WILL BE LENDING A HAND.
