Palestine solidarity activists call on Eircom not to collaborate with Apartheid Israel. At 4.30pm on Friday 26th June, politicians Chris Andrews TD (FF), Mary Lou McDonald (SF), Proinsias De Rossa MEP (Lab) and Cllr. Richard Boyd Barrett (PBPA) handed in a petition to Eircom Headquarters calling on Eircom not to sign a proposed deal with an IBM-led consortium which includes the Israeli telecommunications billing company Amdocs. Signatures to the petition were collected by the Irish Anti War Movement (IAWM) and the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC), online and on the streets. The hand-in was preceded by a spirited symbolic demonstration by supporters outside the Eircom building. There was chanting of pro-Palestinian slogans, calls for Eircom not to sign the contract, and plenty of beeps of support. |
