These are of the IPSC-organised vigil in solidarity with the people of Gaza on the Ha'penny Bridge in Dublin today and of the later protest at the Egyptian embassy. The protest at the embassy was over Egypt's obstruction of international solidarity activists and because of its hindering of the 'Viva Palestina' Gaza aid convoy.

Eygpt under U.S.-Israeli control is indeed digging an underground steel ring around the Gaza tunnels to Eygpt. This steel seige weapon will stop Gazaians from using their tunnels to get food and supplies into Gaza from Eygpt and will certainly increase the death rate on the palestinian people living in Gaza.

The Nuremburg Trials (1945) chaired by U.S. judge Jackson says that the planning and doing of aggressive war is the supreme international crime on the planet earth, because it actuates all other crimes high, low, big, and small. He further says that it is the supreme international crime whether Germany does it or the U.S.A. does it. If Eygpt goes ahead with the tightening steel underground siege weapon, it will therefore be a war crime against the people of Gaza, because that Steel weapon is the planning and doing of Aggressive War on an innocent people.
