Hello fellow protesters! I survived the port massacre this morning at the Oakland docks (okay, I got there after the shooting stopped). But we all heard about your actions throughout the day as we continued marching in the streets and I want you to know we love you. We thank you for doing what we can't (since Bush can't show his face in California). Good tactics, good coverage, and the best of all possible targets...congratulations!

The whole world is watching! Ireland's too good for the likes of Blair and Bush - tell em to swim home, if they can remember where that is. Whose country does Bush live in, how many massacres did his people carry out. Shame to take their evil to Ireland. Shame to commit genocide in Iraq.

Bush slept his first night outside of the USA since the declaration of War as a guest of Elizabeth the second of England and Wales in one of her impregnable fortresses.
By the usual standards of British hospitality that was a "calculated snub".
think about it.
Hillsborough is not Terceira USAF Azores base now is it?
What is "She" saying?
did "She" invite him, or did "He" invite himself?

We exiles could never get within 100 yards of the Jolly Rancher. I'm so jealous.
Thanks again.

Congrats on Direct Action in Belfast. As someone who moved to England from Belfast a few years ago to study, and has since got involved with D.A. as part of the anti-war movement, I'm really glad you pulled this off in Belfast.

I never really got involved in protesting at home. I used to get pissed off with the fucking Sinn Fein youth trying to hijack every peaceful demo. I'm happy to see that the anti-war movement in the north of Ireland is now able to shake off those associations on this.
