This month's CodePINK MMMEG (Monthly Monday Meet, Eat & Greet) will take us from the most recent DRONE bombing locations of Yemen and Libya to Creech AFB, where our soldiers are sitting behind their computer consoles and clicking to murder human beings far away.

Many of us, once again, do not even know where these countries are, other then shores in a marine song, let alone who the people are that our tax dollars are dedicated to killing.

We are so fortunate to have GG, a mother and grandmother, who has been to Yemen several times in the past few years and whose daughter's family lives there now. GG will present her experiences and views on Yemen.

Then Sharon and Janet will talk about Libya and what is really happening there, including Cynthia McKinney's recent journalist delegation to Libya., sharing facts about Libya that most of us are not aware of.

We will conclude with our plans to extend the Trail of TORA (Tears, OutRAGE, & Actions) & Dharna from San Francisco to Creech AFB towards the end of July, in solidarity with 10's of 1000's of Pakistani people who are Dharna (Sit-in Protest) on the NATO supply route in Pakistan.
