When a PhD on the "politics of smell" trended on X recently it exposed how elites use pretentious woke gobbledegook to exclude the people from power, much like previous generations used Latin and Greek, says Steven Tucker.

They're on Trial for Us!

We're on the Loose for Them!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before the illegal invasion & bombing of Iraq, five members of the pacifist Catholic Worker movement made their way into Shannon Airport and non-violently disarmed a U.S. navy war plane in the early hours of February 3rd. 2003.

The Pit Stop Ploughshares Deirdre Clancy, Nuin Dunlop, Karen Fallon, Ciaron O'Reilly & Damien Moran spent 4 to 11 weeks in Limerick Prison. They went to trial in March 2005 on two counts of Criminal Damage -€100 and $U.S.2.5million.

Penalties if convicted carry a maximum of ten years imprisonment.

The March '05 trial collapsed on the 6th day when Judge O'Donnell called a mistrial, dismissed the jury, and instructed the media not to report on the reasons for the mistrial.

The October '05 re-trial collapsed on the 10th day, after Judge Donagh MacDonagh agreed with Defence counsel that his attendance at the Bush inauguration in 2001 (amongst other meetingswith Bush) was grounds for his removal from the case, in that his role was tainted with a 'perception of bias'.

Over 100 international & numerous Irish anti-war activists converged on Dublin for both trials. They were occasions for public witness against the war, with evenings of celebration of the disarmament and public meetings concerning ongoing Irish involvement in the war on Iraq.
_____________

The Pitstop Ploughshares 5 return to trial again at Dublin's Four Courts on Monday July 5th 2006. The trial is likely to run for two weeks.

They hope to run another series of events running up to and around the trial. They need your help. Please make contact if you want to join them for the trial or offer other solidarity.
