DESCRIPTION:Standing Army, directed by Enrico Parenti and Thomas Fazi, is an 
 award-winning documentary film about the global network of U.S. military 
 bases, the impact that these have on local populations, and the 
 military-industrial complex that lies behind it.\n\nThe film explores 
 historical displacement of native populations, including Italy, on Diego 
 Garcia (an Indian Ocean island) and the Middle East. The film posits that 
 while the traditional definition of the term empire means possession of 
 colonies, the foundation of an "American empire" is based on a worldwide 
 network of military bases. While they used to serve as simple supply 
 facilities in war-like conflicts, they are often formed in the aftermath of 
 armed US interventions, raising the question if this is intentional 
 strategy.\n\nFeaturing Noam Chomsky, Gore Vidal, Chalmers Johnson and 
 others.\n\nSuggested Donation $5-10\n\nSponsored by San Jose Peace & 
 Justice Center\nCo-sponsored by Code Pink and Veterans for Peace Ch. 101 \n
