I attended the protest today as an Ógra Shinn Féin activist in solidarity with the organisers of the event - SY.
The protest had approx 50 people, which was made up of Ógra Shinn Fein, Anarchists, and SY.
All organisations carried Banners with the Ógra Shinn Fein banner rading 'No to Britain in Ireland, No to USA in Iraq'. There was also a loud hailer which was used to chant anti-imperialist slogans.
Overall - the protest did make an impact in terms of reaching a large audience but participation wasn't ideal - i think that in the future if we are to build a true broad mass 'anti - imperialist' movement, then we need to unite on a very serious issue that Ireland too reamins occupied by Britain - and if a serious anti imperialist movement must be formed we must declare the ocupation of Ireland Illegal just like Iraq.
Solidarity will unite us - Socialism will free us!
Onwards to the Socialist Republic!
I completely agree, at current there is over 10000 British troops in Ireland, and just under 5000 in Iraq - and the british Government is supposedly not at war in ireland.
Irish people when challenging International Imperialism, can not be taking serious if they are not to be challenging Imperialism in their own nation.
Theres a saying that if you want a perfect world then you have to sort out your own little corner first!
So i completely agree, I want a serious anti imperialst movement in Ireland, who's chant, whose aim is to end Imperialsim in Iraq, in Ireland, all over the world, we must make a stand!
It is then we will see the protesting dozens turn into protesting thousands!
Ireland and Iraq abu!
