Jump To Comment: 3 2 1The Fly IN protest at Shannon airport on the 15th of March organised by the Peace & Neutrality Alliance is only the first. We are planning similar protests. We would like to thank all those who took part.
A recent poll of US troops serving in Iraq showed that 72% of them wanted to get out of Iraq by the end of 2006. Others have shown that the majority of Americans no longer support the Bush regime's war on Iraq. Bush's defeat in Iraq is enivitable. That grovling, sycophantic, fore-lock touching, gombeen man, Bertie Ahern, backed the wrong horse.
However, make no mistake, the Soldiers of Destiny are absolutely committed to supporting this war and the coming war on Iran to the hilt and they have the support of virtually the entire establishment media.
Indymedia offers one of the only media outlets tha that provides a voice to those of us who, unlike Ahern, do not want to die for Bush.
Those of us who oppse the decision of the Irish elite to re-establish the Irish Imperial tradition by backing this war and by intergrating the Irish Army into the Battle Groups of the EU need to work more closely together if we are to defeat them and I was pleased that representatives of Anti-war Ireland took part in the fly in protest.
All Ahern and the Irish political/media elite are offering the Irish people is deeper and deeper involvement in the resource wars of the 21st century, wars in which their defeat is the only inevitable outcome. However, if we continue to work together we can stop them.
The Government has said it accepts assurances from the US government that no such prisoners have been on board any flights passing through Shannon.
However, peace campaigners want the Irish authorities to go further and inspect US flights to make sure Irish territory is not being used for illegal activities.
The Peace and Neutrality Allianc e has arranged a special "fly-in protest" today whereby a plane carrying politicians opposed to the US use of Shannon will fly from Dublin to the Co Clare airport.
