* BACKGROUND ON THE "DISARM PLOWSHARES" WASHINGTON STATE, USA

In the early hours of 2 November, 2009, five veteran peace
activists were arrested at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor,
Washington, USA. Their crime? Cutting fences and walking
onto the grounds of the Trident strategic nuclear weapons
facility. They carried a banner, trailed blood, and
scattered sunflower seeds, and hammered symbolically for
disarmament.

The five are: Bill “Bix” Bischel, S.J 81 (Tacoma Catholic Worker & I.W.W.),
Susan Crane, 65 (Jonah House  http://www.jonahhouse.org/),
Lynne Greenwald, 60;
Steve Kelly, S.J., 60;
Sr. Anne Montgomery RSCJ, 83.(formerly CPT Hebron  http://cpt.org/ )

poor."
