Agóid i gCoinne Aersheó na Gaillimhe

category galway | anti-war / imperialism | press release author Monday July 07, 2003 00:30author by Pádraig Ó Baoill - G'way Allianceauthor email draoirua at eircom dot net Report this post to the editors

D'eagraigh Comhghuaillíocht na Gaillimhe i gcoinne an Chogaidh agóid in éadan taispeántas Aeir Bhóthar an Trá Dé Domhnaigh 6 Iúil. Bhí muintir na háite Bhóthar an Trá agus ón Chladach páirteach san agóid.

Ba é an príomhghearán a bhí ag an lucht agóide ná go raibh eitleáin cogaíochta mar chuid den tseó.

"Déanann a leithéid beag den fhoréigeán agus rud glórmhar den chogaíocht" arsa urlabhra den ghrúpa agóide, "Is beag meas atá ag an lucht eagraithe ar shaolta daoine nuair a fógraítear an ocáid mar lá siamsaíochta do theaghlaigh. Ní taispeántas gan locht é seo, ach seó uafásach a dhéanann rudaí glórmhara iontacha de chuid de na gléasanna troda is measa riamh cruthaithe ag duine. -- Bhí na heitleáin A-10's sa taispeántas agus bhí cuid acu seo ag scaoileadh buamaí uráinium ídithe san Iaráic le déanaí. Lena chois sin, leag Tornados buamaí crobhaingeacha sa tír céanna ar na mallaibh."

Ba é an fáth a raibh daoine amuigh i mbun agóide ná le daoine a chur ar an eolas ar cad go díreach a raibh páirteach sa tseó. Bhí na heitleáin seo armtha le linn an taispeántais agus bhí muintir na háite buartha nach raibh ceadúnas faighte ag an lucht eagraithe, rud atá riachtanach de réir an dlí. "Ní amháin nach raibh meas ag lucht eagraithe an tseó ar mhuintir na háite ach ba lú a meas ar mhuintir na hIaráice atá ina gcónaí i nGaillimh." arsa duine áitiúil.

Faigh saol duit féin a bhréanthufóigín lofa agus ná bí ag cur isteach ar dhaoine atá ag iarraidh lá saoire taitneamhach a bhaint amach dóibh féin.

Nach bhfuil anam nimheach agat.

Molaim sibh a chairde.
Nóta do Sheainín: A mhalairt ar fad atá fIor. Anam uasal, cróga atá igceist anseo.
Nach uafásach an rud é, a Sheainín, gur féidir leat a bheith chomh maslaitheach i dhá theanga. Scrúdaigh d'anam féin. Cén fáth a bhfuil tú de shíor ag baint úsáid as an Idilíne chun maslaí den saghas is gránna a chaitheamh in aghaidh muintir na síochána?
Ba mhaith liom go mór labhairt leat go pearsanta mar creidim go bhfuil rud éigin ag cur as duit, nach droch-dhuine thú, agus dá dtuigfeadh tú i gceart an fáth atá taobh thiar de na hagóidí seo go léir go mbeadh tú níos tuisciní agus - cá bhfios? - b'fhéidir ar thaobh na n-agóidí.

Seo cuid den obair a dhean an A-10 in Iraq.

Sunday July 6, 2003
The Observer

It was Rahad's turn to hide. The nine-year-old girl found a good place to conceal herself from her playmates, the game of hide and seek having lasted some two hours along a quiet residential street in the town of Fallujah, on the banks of the Euphrates. But while Rahad crouched behind the wall of a neighbour's house, someone else - not playing the game - had spotted her, and her friends; someone above. The pilot of an American A-10 'tank-buster' aircraft, hovering in a figure of eight. He was flying an airborne weapon equipped with some of the most advanced and accurate equipment for 'precision target recognition' in the Pentagon's arsenal. And at 5.30pm on 29 March, he launched his weapon at the street scene below.
The 'daisy-cutter' bounced and exploded a few feet above ground, blasting red-hot shrapnel into the walls not of a tank but of houses. Rahad Septi and 10 other children lost their lives; another 12 were injured. Three adults were also killed.

The A 10 does not fire the daisy cutter. It is dropped from a C130..
It does not bounce...

agus na daoine i bhíonn i mbun agóid. Chonaic me bhur leithead ag freastal ar an Ollscoil agus is fuath liom sibh. Níl splanc céille agaibh, ní chaitheann sibh nóiméad ag cíoradh an cheist ach bheith amuigh ag screadadh in aghaidh an 'establishment' mar a cheapann sibh é.

D'anam don diabhal a mhac agus gach cumannach nimheach in éineacht leat go hIfreann fuar libh.
