MARY "DISARMS" AND CONVERTS SATANIC CREATURE TO HER CAUSE !

Beating a Parthian retreat from Ennis to Galway city last night, Mary kept her cutting edge sharp for her encounter with Judge Moran this Friday, by rallying her troops, leafletting the pedestrians of Shop Street on her case, "Disarming" the Eminence Grise of Bush, Blair and Ahern and stocking up with a serious amount of organic fruit and veg from the Street market around the corner.

From L to R Michael, Mary, Nick, Martin and Paula.

Guess, I'll have to get Mary on the job again and "Disarm" my cack-handedness?.

Take that 'n that n' that !

Mary literally "Disarming !

The disarming seems to have effected a Damascus type conversion on the creature, as it's now bearing witness to St.Mary !

Great to see you press on. Not retreat from the experience of court this week. If there were more room on that speech bubble, the devil might add "and if Kerry is elected it will be more of the same too!"

Someone said once at an antiwar gathering in Dublin, when the invasion had begun and many campaigners seemed to fall to pieces that despair is an indulgence the people in Iraq didn't have. Keep pressing on, and on.

Much respect to you Mary and all the Galway crew!!

as opposed of course to someone completely sane who goes to foreign parts to blow the shit out of barefoot conscripts or destroys a retreating convoy .shooting fish in a barrel is the preserve of the sane.

we could do with some more insane people like Mary to fly the jets that those sane, peace loving child killers who haunt Fallujah control .then perhaps the up to 100k civilian deaths since Georgies boys came to town could have been avoided.

St. Mary Kelly, the patron saint of lost causes. Does the lady understand the benefits of engaging brain before putting mouth into gear?

Its usually a good idea for somebody found guilty of criminal charges to keep a low profile until they get sentenced. The State wants to make an example of Mary , her actions parading around Galway won't help the Judges opinion of her come Friday.

Quote "Beating a Parthian retreat from Ennis to Galway city last night, Mary kept her cutting edge sharp for her encounter with Judge Moran this Friday, by rallying her troops, " . The troop seems to consist of 4 other loosers. Thats not a troop, its not even a valid support structure. Where is marys family during all this. Have they disowned her? She'd want to cop herself on. A good stiff jail sentence will sort her out.

...had moral qualms about our breach of neutrality, and ther fact that cluster bombs were to be dropped on innocent Iraqi civilians, it seems now that she is very foolish. Good, stern, stiff, urghh, yearggh, hard jail sentences will sort her out.

Then she will become sensible again. When she is released from jail, she will no longer question. She will only do that if other people will do that. Otherwise, she will be quite sensible and curt and to the point and obedient, which is in itself a great Irish tradirtion going back to the time when our administraivre capital was to be found in Rome somewhere.

Goddamit, don't you know you are such a loser if you refuse to support democracy in Iraq.? Don't you know you are a loser if you go too far with protesting? Never, ever believe in anything in this country that has not got it's stamp of approval from people with good stern beliefs in everything the newspaper tells them.

Mary,
Ignore the losers writing to you here. We need more humor in this mad world. Your resisilience shines through in these photos. Don't let the losers get you down.

Jail is good. I like the police. Reports like Primetime is merly liberal propaganda. The Sunday Indo writers like Gwen Halley are sensible. Fianna Fail is good.


( this is going to be a song by the way, think derna derna derna d chord)

chorus

urggh yearghh, I am sensible

i was sensible when kids were abused

i didnt believe it, I just went to Mass

Now I go no longer
because it is not sensible
Gerry Ryan doesnt like it.

verse 2

Protestors are silly
they dont know what they are talking about
there are other ways of protesting in palestine
besides just blowing yourself up

chorus

verse 3

if you go to a march
you are foolish
only extremists
go to marches
meanwhile
our liberal vibrant economy
goes from strength to strength

chorus

verse 4

oh no

all the oil has run out

what will I do

I think I'll become a cannibal

that is what everyone else is up to now

seeing as society has collapsed

I'll do likewise because I'm sensible

Ah, theres my favorite writers over there now

brendan o' connor

he'll feed me for ten days.

chorus( X2)
(scream the last line)

...but you must watch your symbolism. Your devil...is in fact Pan...the Lord of the wildwood, a good being. The christian church is a anti goddess disease.

Thus the christian church is in fact 'the beast'.

I know that what you are doing here is 'for the punters'...but truth is more powerful. Get your symbolsism right for the best magical invoction...which is the essence of the nature of the work that you are doing here in reality.

How would you do this practice?

Invoke Irish Tribal Soverignty....Ireland, is in fact a temple, the centre being Tara. That temple incarnates in You. The christian church cuts you off from full incarnation by the mean described here...

http://newswire.indymedia.org/en/newswire/2004/10/811187.shtml

(second comment down by me)

For a start please DO YOUR WORK BILINGUAL.

I think with full empowerment (a total change of energy/reality), half the population of Ireland would rise up and trash those planes!...This is why you are contained and disempowered by 'the beast'...so that you are compliant workers. (catholic or otherwise). Fuck work and light the challace.

Blessed be,

King Amdo.

(but of course this is only a reincarnated Tibetan bodisatva witch telling you this, so best block out/ignore etc etc and carry on egoising).

(Not left or right, but outside that scism)

isn't her sentencing today?

author by eeekkkpublication date Fri Nov 05, 2004 14:12Report this post to the editors

From RTE.ie/news

Sentencing of 52-year-old peace activist, Mary Kelly, has been adjourned again until next month.

She was found guilty of causing criminal damage to a US military aircraft at Shannon Airport last year.

Representing herself in the case, Kelly sought legal representation last week for sentencing.

This was granted by Judge Carroll Moran, who adjourned the case until today.

However, this morning Kelly's legal team said they were not in a position to proceed and requested more time.

Sentencing is now due on Wednesday, 1 December at Limerick Circuit Court.
