IAWM protest against US navy on wednesday

category dublin | anti-war / imperialism | event notice author Tuesday May 18, 2004 17:37author by David Report this post to the editors

E-mail sent by IAWM

"Emergency Protest East Link Bridge on Wednesday 19th May at 6pm

The Irish Anti-War Movement condemns the arrival of the USS La Salle,
from the US Sixth Fleet into Irish waters. The ship is stationed in
Alexandria Basin on a supposedly "goodwill visit" and claims that its
area of responsibility includes the North Atlantic.

The IAWM further notes that the missile system on the USS La Salle is capable
of firing 3,000 uranium bullets per minute. Depleted uranium weaponry
has brought an increase in cancer rates in both Iraq and the Balkans."

The E-mail fails to describe what format the protest will take. The potential for very vocal civil disobedience at rush hour on the busiest road in the country is massive.

It could prove very effective if undertaken as a direct action. On the other hand, the leadership of IAWM might only want to leaflet the cars or something equally passive.

I think that people have a right to know what they will be expected to do if they turn up tomorrow to protest against the U.S. military and i am calling for the IAWM/SWP to clarify what the plans for tomorrow are.

I agree that it is strange. I've moved it here, but would appreciate IAWM feedback as to whether it's real. R. Isible.

The link below links to their calendar item and there's a bit more info on the front page (essentially what you've cut and pasted).

Below is a link to this morning's/afternoon's vigil against the USS La Salle. Good opportunity to allow the general public to know the ship had docked, it's background and miltary capability, and that it will be here until Saturday - whether they agree or disagree.

Could someone please post up a report of the iawm vigil. thanks
