Picket against war, occupation and deportation at Mill Street Garda Station! The Global Women's Strike calls on women, children and men to Strike out against all warmongers and globalisation with a picket and grassroots speak-out at Mill St Garda station at 1pm sharp on Wednesdays. All welcome to speak out. Bring pots and pans to bang! The war on Iraq is not over but an illegal occupation and the theft of people's assets and resources has begun. Like all other colonial powers through the ages, the US and UK knew that not only killing and maiming people, but allowing and even organising the looting of museums and libraries, allows them to devalue the lives, work and hopes of everyone from Iraq. The occupying powers have already started to stoke divisions between communities of different religion or ethnicity to make it easier to steal from them. Women and children continue to suffer ... read full story / add a comment
