2. 14th May 12PM Support the Syrian People Protest at the Spire Dublin

3. Protest at the Obama Visit
Obama was elected on a wave of hope that he would bring change to the people of the USA however three years later very little has changed:
- The Promise to close Guantanamo Bay has been broken.
- Thousands have died in Drone attacks on Pakistan and Afghanistan.
- Wiki Leaks is being suppressed.
- Bradly Manning is held unacceptable conditions for allegedly leaking the secret cables to Wiki Leaks.
For these reasons we will be holding a protest at the visit of the US president. Further details to follow shortly.
