Let's wear black on March 17th to make a point

Let's all wear black and bring black flags to Paddy's day marches all ofver Ireland and the world to protest against the genocidal war against the Iraqi people.

There's nothing to celebrate when our government can decide off their own initiative to support this unjust war to ensure cheap oil going into the future.

It's a black time for Ireland and the world so let's send a message out that there'll be no Paddy's day celebration. The government could call off Paddy's day because of a couple of hundred sheep with foot & mouth but they want to give Bush shamrock and have a party to celebrate slaughtering tens or hundreds of innocent human beings ... its disgusting and a disgrace!

To show the world what a sham it is let's all wear black and bring black flags to Paddy's day marches all ofver Ireland and the world to protest against the genocidal war against the Iraqi people, or better still stay away altogether in protest!

Although you would love to see how the blood-thirsty mass media would report a blcak Paddy's day with all of the worlds cameras trained on Ireland!
