Limerick TDs' offices get anti-war makeover

Anti-war activists have spray painted the offices of Fianna Fail's Willie O'Dea and Progressive Democrat Tim O'Malley. The 'Blood On Your Hands' campaign continues.

A big red SHAME was painted on the road way outside O'Dea's Farranshone office, along with "US planes out of Shannon" on the wall.

Tim O'Malley's office in Dooradoyle was also visited.

Showing their usual insensitivity to possible mass slaughter in Iraq we got a couple of absurd comments from them in today's Star.

O'Dea told us that "It is ironic that people who say they are in favour of peace behave like this"

And O'Malley waded in with "I am extremely upset for myself and for my staff who were very traumatised after this appalling incident which is a violation of my rights as a citizen of this country".

Let a thousand housepainters pick up their brushes.

Mourning the Death of Irish Neutrality and All Deaths in Iraq

Next Sunday, 30th March will see a Dead Slow March for Peace taking place at Shannon Warport.(Meeting 2pm at the shopping centre).

People will gather at Shannon from all over the country to express opposition to the war in Iraq and to Irish participation in it, through the use of facilities at Shannon by US military on their way to the Gulf.

This will be a solemn occasion, an act of mourning for all those who have been or will be killed in this war and for the final death of Irish Neutrality.

Organisers are asking participants to wear black clothes, white face paint and to bring red paint or fake blood to put on their hands.

This protest has been called by the Grassroots Network Against War and is being supported by the Cork Peace Alliance.
