Subject: Is US planning to attack another country?
From: the Peacewatchers at USAFs Fairford and Welford bases in the UK
Since Saturday, people in the Highlands of Scotland have been
witnessing large movements of US warplanes overhead. Experienced
observers say the large numbers are reminiscent of those that preceded
the bombing of Iraq in 1998 and military strikes on Libya in the1980's
as well as the first Gulf War.
At the weekend warplanes were flying over at a rate of roughly one
every 15 minutes. As well as watching them from the ground the plane
spotters have also been able to overhear pilots talking by listening
to their radio frequencies.
At this rate some 288 warplanes would have passed over Scotland in
three days.
It is thought that the planes have flown on a route from the US over
the north pole to bases in Europe and the Mediterranean. The size and
scale of the movement suggests that the US may be preparing to strike
at a country in the Middle East in the next week to ten days.
Please pass this information on as widely as possible- the US may be=
planning to use the pretext of "foreign" terrorist attacks on US
personnel in Iraq to attack Iran or Syria. Please alert any
sympathetic elected representatives, media representatives and other
sympathetic organisations. Publicising this military movement may
prevent the air-strikes.
