In September 2016 five Christian peace activists, ‘Peace Pilgrims’, trekked overnight through the central Australian bush into the secretive military facility Pine Gap, 18 kms. east of Alice Springs. Their plan of action, according to the police record of interview, was to “pray for a miracle”. They were arrested an hour before sunrise. They faced 7 years jail.
