[fse-esf] for the networks facilitators about the date of Vicenza

[piero bernocchi]

Dear Mariangela, dear Fabrice, dear all,
we have to change something in the report of the Network against war that
Fabrice registered in Stockholm. In fact we decided to support the movement
of Vicenza (against the building of a new Usa and Nato's military base)
which, previously, proposed an international demonstration in Vicenza the
8th of december. But yesterday, for a lot of logistic and technical
problems, they  changed the date, proposing the demonstration for the 15th
of december (and three days of mobilisation from the 14th to the 16th with
meetings and actions). So, in the report you should change the date of our
proposal or add something saying that, in Stockholm, in fact we supported
the date of the 8th because it seemed be the real date of the initiative,
but now this means that we support the new date. Anyway, the new date is
better for all of us who want to go to Vicenza because it's not so close to
the next EPA as the previous date. Thanks a lot, Piero Bernocchi   COBAS
Italy
