Even these high troop numbers are deceiving because they do not include the troops from other U.S. allies that remain in Afghanistan and they do not include the 30,000+ contractors and mercenaries paid for by the U.S., a number that increases each time the U.S. announces a drawdown of its troops [Read more] UNAC goes to Cuba and the Philippines A number of UNAC members and supporters are traveling to Cuba  to attend the 4th International Seminar for Peace and Sovereignty of the Peoples.  The conference will be held in the province of Guantanamo and will focus on military bases.  Additionally, two UNAC leaders are attending an important conference in the Philippines where the US is in the midst of a huge military buildup as part of its “pivot” to Asia.  We urge you to donate to help our supporters attend these events.  You can send a check made out to UNAC to UNAC, PO Box 123, Delmar NY 12054 or click the link below to donate by credit card. http://nepajac.org/cubatrip.html   Northern California Climate Mobilization Saturday, Nov. 21, 2015, 10:30 am - Gather at Laker Merritt Amphitheatre 12 noon - March to Ogawa/Oscar Grant Plaza,  1:00 PM Rally.
