Puerto Ricans Protest U.S. Radar
Hundreds of people rallied in the streets of Juana
Díaz, Puerto Rico, March 15 to protest the U.S. moves to
install a naval radar receiver in that area. Previously,
Washington, attempted to set up the radar receiver in
Lajas, but was forced to abandon that plan in face of
protests by residents of that town. Now working people and
youth in Juana Díaz are doing the same. The radar
transmitter is proposed to be installed in Puerto Rican
island municipality of Vieques. Signs above read: "No to
the antennas," and "No more land for the Navy."
