In the St Patrick’s Day Parade in Galway today, the Patron Saint banished the war criminal Bush from Ireland’s shores. That was the theme of the Galway Alliance Against War float. A snake with George Bush’s head was pursued through the streets of Galway by a peace loving St Patrick. And the crowd applauded in support of St Paddy.
Appropriately, in its statement for St Patrick’s Day the Galway peace group called “on St Patrick to return in June and banish from our shores the evil snake George W. Bush and all his deadly vipers that land daily in Shannon en route to kill in occupied Iraq.” ... read full story / add a comment

Rosemary Nelson Reminder

Today, March 15, is the fifth anniversary of the murder of human rights lawyer Rosemary Nelson. Rosemary was a good friend of the PFC and a fine and brave human rights lawyer. Her loss was felt acutely across Ireland and beyond but nowhere more so than among her immediate family. We remember Rosemary today.

In the High Court this morning lawyers for the British Government announced that Judge Cory's reports into the murder of Rosemary Nelson, Pat Finucane, Robert Hamill and Billy Wright will finally be published by the end of March.
