The Taoiseach:
"I move:
That Dáil Éireann, noting the imminence of military action by a United States led coalition against Iraq:
- recalls the long-standing arrangements for the overflight and landing in Ireland of US military and civilian aircraft; and
- supports the decision of the Government to maintain those arrangements"

I have no political affiliation to any party. My position is I abhor the killing of innocent people and I condemn anyone who aids or abets it in any way. Do you refute the facts as they are presented in this text and these pictures "evil dave"?
