IAWM Bulletin – 11 October 2012
1. PROTEST AT DÁIL TODAY THURSDAY 11 OCTOBER AT 5.30PM:
· DON’T ATTACK IRAN – END SANCTIONS NOW
· IRELAND – STOP SUPPORTING U.S. AND NATO’S WARS ABROAD
· US MILITARY AND TORTURE FLIGHTS OUT OF SHANNON AIRPORT
· CLOSE GUANTANAMO BAY TORTURE CENTRE
· 11 YEARS ON – TIME TO END AMERICA’S LONGEST WAR
Demonstration at Dail Eireann – Thursday 11th October 5.30pm – Assemble Dail Eireann – Kildare St, Dublin
DON’T ATTACK IRAN – END SANCTIONS NOW
The Irish Anti War Movement are calling a demonstration at Dail Eireann calling on the Irish Government to condemn the almost daily threat of war and harsh sanctions imposed on the people of Iran. The sanctions are impacting severely on the most vulnerable sectors of Iranian society and are endorsed by the Irish government. They are allowing the Iranian regime to further repress women, civil rights activists and marginalized groups. There has been no evidence found to show that Iran is diverting uranium into a nuclear weapons programme and the threat of a military attack and debilitating sanctions are unlawful under the UN charter for human rights. Show solidarity with the people of Iran. Don’t attack Iran – End sanctions now.
11 YEARS ON – TIME TO END AMERICA’S LONGEST WAR
Meanwhile the war in Afghanistan is drawing to a slow bloody end with the US and NATO causing total havoc as they protects their exit strategy. But the war was lost ages ago and should never have happened in the first place.
Successive Irish Governments have supported this war through the serving Irish troops in ISAF and the facilitation for the US military at Shannon Airport. It is long past time to cease this support.
Come to the protest to let the Government know that it should stop supporting US and NATO wars abroad.
