A friend spent 4 hours outside a church in Maynooth today collecting signatures for a petition against US use of Shannon and against a war in Iraq. 400 signatures were collected which are being dispatched to the local TDs here at the edge of the city in Kildare. Interestingly - one priest saying mass refused to sign. Another well-heeled man said 'shure it's overpopulated over there anyway'. A lady senior Civil-Servant signed with her maiden name fearing repercussions. Most of those who refused to sign were described as looking 'well off'. Interesting.

Answering a question today on Radio Free Eireann, New York, about the economic effects of her attack on the US war machine, housewife and mother of four, Mary Kelly, said that those who put economics before human life are a disgrace.

She said it was unconstitutional to allow uniformed US military to use Shannon. She called for support for the Ploughshare 5, locked up and denied bail.
