Dear all,
To mark the 20th year of this ongoing War on the people of Iraq there will be a candlelight vigil at Midnight this Saturday night 15th January 2011.
It is at this late hour to coincide with the time that the first bombs were dropped in Iraq in 1991, done cynically so that it would be peak time for people in the USA watching their televisions to gaze in awe at the massive military power of their government destroying the men, women of children of this country. Vigils are being held throughout the world at the same time as this one.
We will remember also the complicity of our own government who have given the use of Shannon Airport to the US military as a stopping point on their way to spread violent death in country most of the soldiers passing through have not the first clue about. Shannon has also had the ignominy of being involved in rendition flights, all very secretly done to avoid public outcry as revealed recently in the Wikileaks on Ireland.
We will also be staying awake for Bradley Manning who faces life in prison for exposing the true nature of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, an act which should be rewarded, not one which is resulting in torture and oppression.
Bring your own light and message if you wish. We will stay for an hour or so in total.
Hope to see as many come along as possible!
