Why Lakenheath?

LAP is taking action to prevent the return of US Nuclear weapons to ‘RAF ‘ Lakenheath. RAF Lakenheath is in reality USAF Lakenheath and is the largest US airbase in Europe. It is assigned to United States Air Forces in Europe and Africa. Its Air Force units maintain combat-ready wings that are pledged to NATO, which plans, conducts, controls, coordinates and supports air and space operations in Europe, parts of Asia and all of Africa with the exception of Egypt. USAF Lakenheath is a threat to us all with its conventional weapons that have been deployed in Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, Serbia, Libya, Syria, the Middle East and East Africa. But with nuclear weapons coming back it becomes even more dangerous.

LAP is committed to nonviolent direct action for a peaceful and non-threatening world. We demand that military resources are instead directed towards global peace and justice and the prevention of human caused climate change and biodiversity loss.
