for details about 'Star Wars: Space - the next target for US invasion',
produced by Scottish CND
Introduction
In February 2003, the UK announced that it would allow the US to use RAF
Fylingdales in Yorkshire as part of a proposed US missile defence system.
Other military installations in the UK will almost certainly play a part
in the system.
Missile defence poses a serious threat both to British security and international
stability. Missile defence is a key component of President Bush's aggressive
military posture. It is triggering a new nuclear arms race and it makes
the UK a target.
CND believes that the Government should have no involvement in missile
defence.
