Women’s Symphony of Protest at Dail

Wednesday 9th April at 7.30pm

We want to make our voices heard as women against the horror of the war against the people of Iraq

The protest is to symbolise the reality of daily life for women in Iraq who have suffered 12 years of sanctions and now the horror of bombs exploding while they struggle to get on with looking after their families.

In other cities around the world women have used pots and pans to show their opposition to this war. We know that every night in Barcelona women create a symphony of protest by banging pots for twenty minutes from10pm. We have heard that this is truly impressive.

We are asking women to bring pots and spoons or lids, the pots are to symbolize the effects of sanctions – empty food pots resulting from sanctions and now war and the noise will symbolize the horror and noise of bombing.

Come to the Dail on Wednesday and let our Government know that we want them to stop their support for this war.
