World War 1 was supposed to be over by Christmas 1914-
see for details.
http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=22549

World War 2 was supposed to end in 1948.
But Atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki
ended it.

The Cold War known to some as WW3
ended with the dissolution of the Soviet Union
and the reunification of Germany. 1989-1990

http://ireland.indymedia.org/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=22549&start=280

The War on Terrorism
when did it begin?
will it be finished by the time Bush leaves the White House?

Ireland is illegally committed to escalation
in breach of the will of it´s people, and it´s constitution.

Ireland is a small irritation in the WAR on Terrorism progress, we can be so
irritating.
