How about the use of white phosphorus during last November's offensive in Fallujah? Nay, how about the very presence of American troops in Iraq? Does anybody doubt that some of the troops and equipment that passed through Shannon were deployed in the forced evacuation and destruction of Fallujah? Painfully reminiscent of Anfal and Halabja.
I would say that Ireland has collaborated in the cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment of the entire population of Iraq by permitting Shannon Airport to be used to pursue the war.

Having heard on RTE news that Mary Mc Aleese has invited queen elizabeth to Ireland,
during her visit to Belfast
I wrote a letter to santa,
asking santa for a bow up doll in the image of her magesty for aldult pleasure
in anticipation of her visit to Ireland in 2006
how many men did she bring to their knees.
I thought you would welcome the Queen. She might Knight you for sevices to HM Government. Class War have always played a great role in dividing campaigns and causing provocations.
Whats a 'bow up doll'?
