category galway | anti-war / imperialism | event notice author Sunday October 21, 2007 15:24author by Doesn't matter - N/A

Lets get a rendition of a different song from the Irish Government

We have two messages:

Defining the WAR on TERROR can be TORTURE. 5 YEARS is enough- Close down
Guantánamo and other secret detention centres.

RENDITION = TORTURE = SECRECY = KIDNAPPING =ILLEGAL= COLLUSION= TERROR

We are calling volunteers to support us in our parade which will take place on Wed. 31st October (Halloween). The parade will be used to highlight the horrifying legislation that the Bush Administration has enacted as part of it's War on Terror campaign. There will be two marches taking place, one at 1pm and the other at 6.00pm. Starting at Eyre Square to Spanish Arch. We will be enacting the scene of Guantánamo detainees, being marched blindfolded and shackled by the U.S Military.The council of Europe has identified Ireland as a probable stopover point for aircraft linked to abductions. Ireland must NO LONGER rely on foreign state's promises. The government should set up an inquiry into Ireland's laws and procedures in granting flight clearances. IRELAND and EUROPE must say never again to allowing rendition flights to take place in Europe.

Join us for demanding TORTURE FREE SKIES.
