The Siege of Hillsborough Castle The Arrival of George Bush and Tony Blair at Hillsborough Castle is to be met with little welcome from the public of Northern Ireland. People are already arriving from all over Britain and Ireland to 'lay siege' to Hillsborough Castle. Some tactics discussed, during the hectic two days of planning since information of their arrival was leaked to the media, include naked pieing of the the president and prime minister, traditional banging of pots & pans, dustbin lids, and lambeg drums. Northern Irish opposition to the War on Iraq is part of a Global Anti War Majority opposing what continues to be an unnecessary and illegal war. Furthermore, the peace credentials of Geoge Bush are met with serious skepticism by many here who have worked on the ground, long and hard, to establish a difficult and precarious peace.

There are troops *in Saddam's palace*. Iraqi people are cheering on the street. You want them to leave now?!
Has your relflex hatred of Bush et al blinded you to these simple facts. Yes they're bad, but they're doing a good thing albiet for thier own interests.
These protests do nothing other than feed the SWP/'whatever they call themselves' pious delusions of relevance to the world.
Save your bus money and send it to Christian Aid you self righteous hypocrites.
