Military transports stopped successfully
While the media states that Baghdad is fallen to the US troops, and why the US and UK military superiority in the region has be established, new transports of tanks and helicopters from US bases in Germany are still on the way in the golf region via the harbours Rotterdam (Netherlands) and Antwerpen (Belgium).
Activists locked themselves to the rails (nl) near Venlo (NL), and the train returned to Germany because it was to wide to wait there without blocking the oncoming traffic.
Earlier in the week, planespotting took place at the Belgium airport Oostende>. Oosteinde is used for civil flights with military material and the change the crews, but one of the companies recently decided to fly via the UK (nl) instead. A few days later, a group of activists walked on the runway (nl, fr) and hung up a banner (nl) with "No war for oil. Resist" over the windows of the controll tower.
