Flowers and Letter left on doorstep of Mr Joe Walsh TD, Minister for Agriculture

60 people (true figure) attended a Mothers’ Day Peace Vigil in Clonakilty today (Sunday 29th March), for the first of what will be weekly vigils for peace until the war in Iraq is stopped. Participants held flowers to symbolise peace, together with newspaper photographs of Iraqi mothers and children. At the conclusion of the vigil, the flowers were gathered and laid on the doorstep of Mr Joe Walsh TD, Minister for Agriculture, along with a letter calling on the government to withdraw facilities at Shannon Airport from US military transports. The organisers, Clonakilty Against the War, announced that the peace vigil will be held every Sunday at 12.30pm in Emmet Square, Clonakilty, and called on people in towns throughout Ireland to organise their own peace vigils.

Bob,

Your doubts regarding the true figure (60) can be cast aside. Please go to this indymedia link:

http://www.indymedia.ie/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=39612&start=0

I've posted a picture of the vigil, and though the quality isn't good, you'll see that there are exactly 60 people present – not 61, not 59, not 45,000 – 60.
