Gardai flew a helicopter sufficiently close to the lorry carrying speakers at Dublin's Antiwar march today to obscure the public address system. A protester complained that the speeches were being drowned out to the senior officer on the march and were assured that the helicopter would be moved. The helicopter flew away a few minutes later.
