Press Release: Irish Mothers Against War
For Immediate Release

Irish anti-war organisation “Irish Mothers Against War” have declared their intentions to protest at Dublin airport at arriving American tourists. The group that has taken part in marches in Dublin and Limerick has stated that their members will greet every plane landing in Dublin that originated in the US.

According to spokeswoman Nuala O'Farrell "This protest will serve to remind ordinary Americans that not everyone shares their nation's approach to international diplomacy. We hope that this small protest may encourage them to petition their local congressman on their return home."

"This will be a peaceful protest utilising banners and t-shirts rather than vocal intimidating chants and jeering. We intend to start protesting from this weekend, and we call on all mothers who feel strongly about this war to join us. We are not anti-American but anti-war".
