ʻO ka mea hoʻonohonoho CodePink ʻo Toby Blomé i ʻōlelo ʻo nā mea hoʻouluulu, mai Kaleponi, ʻAlikona, a me Nevada, "ua koi ʻia e komo a kū i kahi kūlana ikaika a kūpaʻa hoʻi i ka luku ʻia a me ka hoʻomāinoino ʻole ʻia e nā US drones e kū nei i kēlā me kēia lā" ma Creech.

Noho, mau haneli o nā pailaka e noho i nā bunker air-air ma kumu-ʻIke ʻia ma ke ʻano he "Home o nā Hunters" - ke nānā nei i nā pale a me ka hoʻohuli ʻana i nā ʻoliʻoli e kāohi ai i nā mea kaua ʻo Predator a me Reaper i ʻoi aku ma mua o 100 e hoʻouka i nā airstrike ma kahi o ka hapalua mau ʻāina he nui, i kekahi manawa pepehi kanaka pepehi kanaka me nā pūʻali koa Islamist i manaʻo ʻia.

Wahi a ka Bureau of Investigative Journalism ma Ladana, ua hana ʻo US ma kahi o 14,000 drone i ka wā i kapa ʻia ʻo War on Terror, ka make ʻana ma ka lehulehu ʻo 8,800-E komo pū ana ma waena o 900 a me 2,200 mau lehulehu - ma Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, a me Yemen wale nō mai ka 2004.

I kēia makahiki, ua hui pū nā mea hoʻolale i kahi "palaka palupalu" e pale ai i ke komo ʻana o nā limahana o ka Air Force e hoʻokele nei e hana mai ko lākou mau home ma metro Las Vegas. Ma ka Pōʻalima, ʻelua mau mea hoʻouluulu — Maggie Huntington o Flagstaff, ʻAilona, ​​a me Blomé, mai El Cerrito, Kaleponi — i wehe aʻe i kahi hae e heluhelu ana, "Kāohi iā Droning Afghanistan, 19 MAI KKAHI!"

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Huntington ua "hoʻoikaika ʻia ʻo ia e komo i kēia kūʻē ʻana, me ka lana o ka manaʻo e aʻo aku mākou i nā koa e pono lākou e kaohi a hoʻomaopopo i nā hopena o kā lākou hana."

Ua hoʻokumu nā mea hoʻonāukiuki i kahi huakaʻi ma US Route 95, ke ala nui e alakaʻi ana i ka waihona, a hoʻolohi i nā kaʻa mai ke komo ʻana ma kahi o ka hapalua hola. Ua haʻalele lākou i ke ala alanui ma hope o ka hoʻoweliweli ʻia me ka hopu ʻia e Las Vegas Metropolitan Police.

Kūleʻa ka hopu ʻana i nā makahiki i hala. ʻO ke kūʻē o ka makahiki i hala iho nei — i hala ma hope koke iho o ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana o ka US drone pepehi he nui o nā mahiʻai Afghanistan - ua hopena i ka hopu o 10 mea hoʻouluulu maluhia. Eia nō naʻe, he ʻelemakule ka hapa nui o nā mea hoʻouluulu, ʻaʻole lākou i makemake e makaʻu i ka hale paʻahao i ka wā o ka maʻi maʻi Covid-19.

Ua waiho pū nā mea hoʻāla i nā pahu kupapaʻu i ke ala i māka ʻia me nā inoa o nā ʻāina i pōpilikia ʻia e ka US, a heluhelu i nā inoa o kekahi o nā tausani o ka poʻe i uluhia e ka drone strike-me nā keiki he haneli.

ʻO nā hōʻike ʻē aʻe Shut Down Creech i loko o ka pule i loko o ka huakaʻi hoʻolewa me ka lole ʻeleʻele, nā pāpale keʻokeʻo, a me nā pahu liʻiliʻi, a me nā leka kukui LED i nā hola o ka wanaʻao e ʻōlelo ana: "NO DRONES."
