Irish police refuse to search US warplane, guarded by Irish soldiers
Today’s peace vigil at shannon on 9 Jan 2011 was not a celebration but a commemoration of events that have been occurring over the past 11 years in Afghanistan and Iraq in which the United States waged unlawful and unjustified wars killing hundreds of thousands of people. It also commemorated and offered condolences on behalf of the many prisoners who were kidnapped, imprisoned without trial and in many cases tortured in Guantanamo and elsewhere. January 2011 also marks the 20th of the US led Gulf War in 1991, which led to the deaths of over two million Iraqi people in the decade up to 2001.

shannon airport played a despicable role in all these events, and continues to do so today, as two US warplanes were present at shannon, including a Hercules MC-130P 66-0216 special operations warplane, that was not on its first visit to shannon, having refuelled here also in 2005, and probably multiple times in the meantime.
