To: Sergeant John O'Sullivan,
Station Sergeant
Shannon Garda Station
Shannon Town

From: Edward Horgan
International Secretary Peace and Neutrality Alliance

Re: Possible arrival of war criminal at Shannon airport this afternoon

Dear Sgt O'Sullivan

I have received information that US President George W Bush may be arriving
at Shannon airport this afternoon. For the purpose of identification to help
you with your enquiries he is likely to be travelling in a Boeing 767
aircraft normally known as Air-force One.

On my own behalf and on behalf of the Irish Peace and Neutrality Alliance, I
formally ask you to arrest Mr George W Bush as soon as he lands at Shannon
so as to prevent his escape. As you are aware, Ireland, as a signatory to
the agreements setting up the International Criminal Court, is obliged to
arrest any suspected war read full story / add a comment
