Bush In NI
The Medias favourite president was on Irish shores to meet with Blair and Berty for a summit on the war in Iraq and the so called peace process at Hillsborough castle today.
The anti-war movement had organized a protest to make the people aware of the atrocities that this man is committing.
The demonstration was a great success with over five thousand peaceful protesters marching towards Hillsborough castle. About two miles from the castle we were stoped from passing PSNI who had but just to stand on the road to stop the crowd. 'well Paddy riot squad what about that'.
The protest ended with speeches and the people left the New World Order King and his jesters in their Castle to carve up the world...

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3that the first night Bush has spent outside his country since he declared War, He has chosen to sleep in one of the impregnable fortresses of The Queen Elizabeth.
I wonder did She invite him to Ulster?
or was it Bertie?
or did He say to Tony
"Hey show me the impregnable fortresses of Mid Ulster, the Azores were to soft."
In the sublte language of the British Queen a point was certainly made.
And the good people of Derry most excellently made theirs' as well.
Nice to see the revolutionary vanguard of the SWP putting it up to the cops outside Hillsborough last night. Richie you were way out of your depth. If it had kicked off last night i dont think Richie and his devotees would have been in much of a position to defend the people from the imperialist forces. If you insist on breaking away from the main body of the crowd to go to police lines please ensure your stewards know what the fuck they are supposed to do. The pulling and dragging you witnessed from the Garda riot squad last week outside Leinster house would have been nothing to the kicking the RUC would have meted out last night. Why did Richie call on the crowd to try and break police lines by climbing into the fields when he knew all that would have happened was a bunch of young kids getting their heads smashed in by the cops. Were you willing to lead the charge Richie. No you were safely behind your megaphone expecting everyone else to lead the way. The pathetic attempt to break police lines by climbing over the fence into the fields for all of five minutes shows how far removed from reality the SWP really are. The growling of a few alsation dogs soon put a stop to the revolutionary gallop.
i am sorry to say that in the main british media the only protests that were reported was the pro-war protest....seemingly Belfast is one of the few places in the world, outside of the states, where Bush would get such a warm reception....
