Marksmen To Protect RAF Killers From Deadly Red Balloons

Marksmen threaten to shoot down peace festival fun.

Galway Alliance Against War have recieved a threat that marksmen snipers will shoot-down the 99 red baloons to be released at the GAAW peace festival protesting the display by the RAF Red Arrows over Galway bay.

An e-mail from a "Patrick Morrisson" was sent to the GAAW e-mail account. Some of the content has been deleted so as not to offend ordinary, decent folk.
The remainder of it goes, " Those balloons won’t be going into the air on Saturday be assured. A team of 6 will be at vantage points near the Spanish Arch with Airsoft Rifles. Any balloon we see will be immediately popped before it reaches 5 feet into the air. Get a life"

We certainly hope that the weaponry referred to by the warmonger sending the e-mail will not injure or maim any members of the public. Unlike the Red Arrows that are known to have had accidents at public events, the GAAW does not want the same risks to be a feature of their events.
 
As for the Galway Alliance Against War getting "a life" – we just want that the poor people of Iraq and Afghanistan be left to live their lives rather than to lose them by being bombed or rocketed to death by the cowardly heroes in the RAF.

The GAAW committe have no doubt that even the warmonger who wrote the threat to GAAW, and those who invited the RAF killers, were shocked and disgusted by the revelations of the Ryan report into the abuses in the industrial schools. Yet this bunch of hypocrites refuse to face up to what these RAF killers have done to little children and their families in foreign lands.
