In view of the Bush Administration's brutal illegal and inhumane war against Iraq, we the undersigned call on the Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, other Irish politicians and Government representatives, not to meet with President Bush in the United States over the coming Saint Patrick's Day events.

Shannon Airport should no longer be used to ferry American troops back and forward to Iraq.

A group of TDs and Senators opposed to the US use of Shannon Airport have been ejected from the main terminal at the Co Clare facility today.

The politicians from the Labour Party, the Green Party and Sinn Féin, along with a number of independents, staged a "fly-in protest" at the airport today.

They travelled from Dublin to Shannon in a special plane chartered by the Peace and Neutrality Alliance before mounting a protest in the terminal.

Is that trio of airport protest happen or happening?
