Bertie failes to hide the blood on his hand - DA in Dublin

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday March 20, 2003 12:13author by 1ofGNAW

As war broke out last night members of the Grassroots Network Against War grafitted Bertie Aherns constituency office (St Lukes) in Dublin. A stencil was used to leave the message 'blood on your hands' in red paint accompanied by a handprint. Bertie rushed to cover this up this morning to hide his shame (picture 1) but too late.

Bertie has blood on his hands.

In the one month that has passed since over 100,000 people marched in Dublin against the war the Irish State has done nothing. Nothing except increase the security at Shannon in order to protect the refuelling of US bombers.

Now as the bombs rain on Baghdad killing innocent people, WE KNOW that Bertie Ahern has blood on his hands.

Members of Dublin GNAW have decided to name and shame the collaborators. This man and his cronies have been complicit in this slaughter.

We call on people to continue the campaign of civil disobedience.

Since they are not listening to us, we have decided to make them listen.
