Last Monday Before U.S. Commander-in-Chief Lands at Shannon
Be There or Be Square!
For the last two Mondays, the Dublin Catholic Worker and US citizens against the present war in Iraq have held vigils at Dublin's US Embassy (cnr. of Elgin & Pembroke).
*A peace vigil will also be held this Monday (14th June) from 5 pm- 7pm and every Monday in the lead up to Bush's visit to Ireland on June 25/26.
5 pm: Vigil begins with placards and banners.
6pm: Reflections from anti-war activists from the US and Ireland to be followed by reading out the names of U.S. military killed in Iraq killed.
We will be demanding an end to the war and the immediate release of all U.S. military resisters (e.g. recently court-martialed Sgt. Camilo Mejia) and peace prisoners (e.g. Kathy Kelly who was active in Ireland and Iraq against the war last year, Dominican Sr.’s Jackie Hudson, Ardeth Platte & Jackie Hudson serving 2 & 3 years for carrying out a weapons inspection & plowshares action on an ICBM missile silo in Colorado).

For the brave American and Allied troops who paid with their lives for your right to protest without getting sent to the gas chambers.
Something is rotten about this kind of thinking.
Well WW2 was basically a German-Russian affair unless you have swallowed the Hollywood/Wayne/Reagan shite you were raised with. What happened to post-war sympathy for the Russians who lost 20 million fighting Nazism...evaporated overnight. Meanwhile the Israelis get a blank cheque to recreate Nazism for rolling over in theface of it and losing 6 million.
