Some 200 people sickened with the butchery being visited on the Lebanese and Palestinian peoples by the IDF assembled at the fountain in Eyre Square for some fiery speeches denouncing the ongoing wanton carnage and to demand the withdrawal of yankee/coalition troopsf from Iraq and Afghanistan and for Syria and Iran not to be attacked.

Galway Alliance Against War (GAAW) were the organisers of the demo with the IPSC, SWP, Sinn Fein and Greens all working towards its success as regards postering, sound system, etc. The march ended up at Eamon O'Cuivs office where a letter lashing the supine whimperings of the present crew in government on the bloodletting was handed in.
