Green Party USA Coordinator
Detained at Airport; Prevented by Armed Military Personnel from
Flying to Political Meeting in Chicago
CounterPunch Wire
Armed government agents grabbed Nancy
Oden, Green Party USA coordinating committee member, Thursday
at Bangor International Airport in Bangor Maine, as she attempted
to board an American Airlines flight to Chicago.
"An official told me that my name
had been flagged in the computer," a shaken Oden said. "I
was targeted because the
Green Party USA opposes the bombing of innocent civilians in
Afghanistan."
Oden, a long-time organic farmer and
peace activist in northern Maine, was ordered away from the plane.
Military personnel with automatic weapons surrounded Oden and
instructed all airlines to deny her passage on any flight.
"I was told that the airport was
closed to me until further notice and that my ticket would not
be refunded," Oden said.
Oden is scheduled to speak in Chicago
Friday night on a panel concerning pesticides as weapons of war.
She had helped to coordinate the Green Party USA's antiwar efforts
these past few months, and was to report on these to The Greens
national committee. "Not only did they stop me at the airport
but some mysterious party had called the hotel and cancelled
my reservation," Oden said.
The Greens National Committee -- the
governing body of the Green Party USA -- is meeting in Chicago
Nov. 2-4 to hammer out the details of national campaigns against
bio-chemical warfare, the spraying of toxic pesticides, genetic
engineering, and the Party's involvement in the burgeoning peace
movement.
"I am shocked that US military prevented
one of our prominent Green Party members from attending the meeting
in Chicago," said Elizabeth Fattah, a GPUSA representative
from Pennsylvania who drove to Chicago. "I am outraged at
the way the Bill of Rights is being trampled upon."
Chicago Green activist Lionel Trepanier
concluded, "The attack on the right of association of an
opposition political party is chilling. The harassment of peace
activists is reprehensible."
