From September 6th to 16th the grassroots movement against the current U.S. base and its expansion organized the No Dal Molin Festival, an international encampment that included direct actions, discussions, film screenings, concerts and more.
Vicenza (pronounced Vichenza) is an inland city of the wealthy Veneto region in the Northeast part of Italy located about 25 miles west of Venice. Vicenza is a UNESCO heritage site because of its historical monuments and artistic landmarks, most notably of architect Andrea Palladio, and the city is often frequented by some of the richest and most powerful families of Italy’s ruling class elite. The current Mayor, Enrico Hullweck, had Silvio Berlusconi as the best man at his wedding in 2003 and is a part of the billionaire’s Forza Italia political party. The extreme right-wing political party Lega Nord, which is currently organizing an anti-islamic rally called “Maiale (Pig) Day”, finds support here, and the shameful powerbrokers of the center-left have their share of vacation homes and villas in the city and the surrounding countryside. Vicenza doesn’t seem like the most likely place for a forceful, sustained and growing movement against U.S. imperialism and military expansion, but the presence of a U.S. military base here and its proposed and imminent expansion have transformed this city into the frontlines of the growing European movement against the United States’ continued and expanding military presence on the Continent and its criminal wars.

Spring zu Komment: 1 2 3 4I commend you on exercising your right to free speech however if you intend to be taken seriously please check your facts.
You make it overwhelmingly obvious that you know very little of the the town and the current situation like many of the protesters who have flocked to my town in the last year.
You do little but attract the support of people who know no better and perpetuate the image of the ignorant and arrogant American.
Hello Tracey,
that's quite an American sounding name. what facts are you referring to? It could be helpful if you filled me in. I know that Vicenza is a wealthy city, based on its gold and jewelry making, that it has been right wing for the past 20 years and that, according to the local citizen's that I spoke with, Lega Nord is popular there. I also learned from local citizens that there is a high degree of insular racism toward muslims and other immigrants in the city, that the U.S. base is seen as an economic foundation for the city and that many see the American presence as protection from the threat of terrorists. I left these unfortunate facts out of my article, but if they aren't true, please fill me in along with the facts i missed in the article.
thanks
Bravo!!!
Very good article,
grazie da Vicenza!!!
