Derry anti-war militants are travelling to Lebanon

category international | anti-war / imperialism | press release author Monday July 23, 2007 14:29author by MichaelY - iawm Report this post to the editors

Members of the Derry Anti War Coalition (DAWC) are travelling to Lebanon this week

To take part in a commemoration ceremony for those killed in Qana by Israeli bombing last year.
That;s who we are
That;s who we are

The delegation will be in Qana on Sunday to take part in memorial events organised by the town council.

On Monday, July 30th, the anniversary of the Qana massacre, the delegation will lay a memorial stone marking the deaths of the 27 local people, the majority of them children and women, who died in the basement of an apartment building in which they had sought shelter. An Israeli guided bomb unit---or “bunker buster�---brought the building down, crushing those in the basement to death.

The anti-war movement has evidence that the bomb used at Qana had been supplied to the Israeli defence forces by Raytheon. The incident sparked the occupation of the Raytheon plant at Springtown, Derry, on August 9th last year.

Nine members of the DAWC face charges arising from the occupation and the alleged destruction of computer equipment on the premises.

The memorial stone being laid by the Derry group has been designed by the Irish artist, Shane Cullen. The inscription on it, appear in Arabic and English, reads:

Qana, Derry.
The dead lie in familiar shapes.
No-one who struggles for justice is a stranger.
No-one who dies for justice is forgotten.
Derry, Qana,
The miracle is love.
One world, One struggle.

Laid on behalf of the anti-war people of Derry, Ireland. July 30th 2007.
