Wake UP

News Update

Wed 29th
Greens walk out of dail and government state their position re shannon: Bertie says that they will review the FF deal with US if the US take unilateral action and war begins. They will review the situation when it's too late. Certainly too late tor the human shields in Bagdad as the cruise missiles rain in and hopefully not too late for US and Irish citizens in this country who are at risk as Ireland is no way and no longer seen as nuetral.
As a result of breaches of security at shannon airport and as a result of the US Embassy's statement (to all the 90,000 US citizens in Ireland to be ready for immediate evacuation with respect to potential terrorist attacks against them in Irelan), it is possible that the Gardai will ask for the Irish Army to base themselves at Shannon in their efforts to increase security at the airport. At the moment the Gardai say that no request to the Irish Army has been made for this support.
US troops were clearly seen moving through the terminals as a troop and munitions carrier was refueling this afternoon. The Irish government denied that their were either troops or munitions on this plane.
TV3 News' first report on the 5.30 disclosed the US embassy's new statement and asked the question at last that if the US are making their citizens ready for evacuation from Ireland then why aren't Fianna Fail recognising the glaring threat of terrorist attack against Irish citizens as was experienced in Bali recently!
