1) DAILY ROUTINE FOR EACH DAY OF TRIAL - KICKS OFF JULY 5TH.

*We will gather in anti-war vigil from 8.30 am at The Spire in O'Connel St. each morning of the trial.

*Around 9.15 am (dependng when the trial is slated to start that particular day) we will process in silence in single file carrying the names of the dead (Iraqi & U.S.) in memory of the dead to the Four Courts.

*We will have a circle at the Four Courts, some reflections and folks will be briefed with the logistics for the day.

*We hope to sustain a vigil with the Buddhist monks outside the Four Courts while the trial is in process...a roster will be created each morning.

*We hope to find a nearby church or other facility where people can gather for coffee, food & reflection at the end of each day.

On legal advice the defendants will provide all the visuals (banners, posters etc.), please respect this.

2) AN INTERNATIONAL CALL FOR SOLIDARITY VIGILS ON JULY 5TH. AT IRISH EMBASSIES, CONSULS & SITES OF SIGNIFICANCE

At our past court appearances solidarity vigils against ongoing Irish complicity in the war on Iraq have been held at Irish Embassies & Consuls in Washington DC, New York City, Houston, Melbourne, Vancouver, London, Dili (East Timor), Brussels, Gotenburg,, Auckland. Also solidarity vigils were held at Bishop Romero's grave (El Salvador), the Berlin Gate, US Air Force Base at Christchurch Airport (New Zealand), Shannon Airport, Belfast, Scales of Justice statue Brisbane, statue in Budapest and an Irish theme bar in Amsterdam.

Before our first trial in march last year, a group of nonviolent activists staged a solidarity sit in at the Irish Embassy in London. This got a lot of media attention as it was such a "man bites dog story" after 30 years of Irish protests at British Embassies, we have a crew that stages a British protest at an Irish Embassy!

If you have friends travelling or living in other parts of the world. Approach them to stage a solidarity vigil on the first day of our trail at an Irish Embassy or Consul. Have them email us about their gathering'

The list of consuls & embassies, can be found on the link below.........
