category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday March 20, 2003 12:57author by The Voice of Fate

Its now 10 hours since ‘Operation Iraqi Freedom’ was launched. Tomahawk cruise missles fired from stealth bombers rain down on innocents in Baghdad. Our so-called leaders are currently massed in the capital, defending the use of our territory in the bombing of another nation. We are no longer observers. The blood is on our hands. This illegal, immoral & indefensible war has finally begun. Today is Day X.

At 12 pm today thousands of people in Galway alone will walk out of their homes, their schools, their jobs to demonstrate their opposition to this bloody conflict.

At 2pm Students and staff of NUI Galway will gather at the Quad, march into town for as yet unspecified actions

Across town at 2 o’clock, students from GMIT will also mass to march into Eyre Sq.

More info on actions in Galway to be published shortly.

Goodbye the voice of freedom and V for Victory. Hello the voice of fate and V for Vendetta.
