Why

Over 500 people converged on Mparntwe (Alice Springs) to protest the U.S. run Pine Gap spy base in June this year. The convergence coincided with 60 years since the base opened.

Pine Gap is the most important U.S. intelligence base outside the U.S. mainland and supplies military intelligence for Israel's genocide and Trump's war of aggression on Iran.

Hear from convergence participants about this historic action, including the protest at the gates of the base and a visit to Irrkerlantye (Whitegate) Town Camp where many of the Traditional Owners of the land where Pine Gap was built live.

Speakers include:

  • Lee Rhiannon, former Greens senator and participant in both the 1987 and 2026 convergences on Pine Gap
  • Jorgen Doyle, Member of Mparntwe for Falastin, and community journalist writing the militarisminthent sub stack.
