Dear Ambassador Further to my telephone call to your office this morning I wish to reiterate some of the points which I made in the conversation with your secretary, and to elaborate on them a little further 1 I am sick to the teeth of the lies you are telling on RTE and in the Irish media about what is happening in Gaza.

The Association of Hunt Saboteurs (AOHS) today witnessed the chased stag at 1pm distressed and disorientated on a road whilst trying to evade the hounds. Regulations set by the Dept of the Environment state the stag must have a 2 kilometer or 30 minute head start. Despite this at 1pm , an hour into the hunt ,the hounds were no more than two minutes behind the distressed animal in Rolestown Co Dublin. Roads were blocked by hunt cars necessitating u- turns of other vehicles and hounds were out of control and ‘rioting’ (hunt term). read full story / add a comment |
