Press Release – Feb 22nd 2010 -IAWM SAYS ASSASINATION PASSPORT OUTRAGE FURTHER PROOF THAT ISRAEL IS A ROGUE STATE AND QUESTIONS WHY ISRAEL IS BEING TRETED WITH KID GLOVES. In a statement, the Irish Anti-War Movement (IAWM) has said that the almost certain responsibility of Israel for the outrage where seven falsified Irish passports were used to facilitate the assassins of senior Hamas figure, Mahmoud Al Mabhouh, in Dubai, was further proof that Israel is a rogue state that has no respect for international law, human rights or the sovereignity of Ireland and other states. The IAWM further questioned why Israel was being treated with kid gloves by the international community and the Irish government. The IAWM pointed out that if Iran were implicated in such outrages it might well be used as a pretext for military attacks and certainly tougher sanctions, while no action whatsoever was even being discussed in relation to Israel. |

Press Release – Feb 18th 2010
-IAWM SAYS ISRAEL SHOULD BE ISOLATED LIKE APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA
In a statement, the Irish Anti-War Movement (IAWM) has said that the almost certain responsibility of Israel for the outrage where falsified Irish and other passports were used to facilitate the assassins of senior Hamas figure, Mahmoud Al Mabhouh, in Dubai, were further proof that Israel is a rogue state that has no respect for international law or human rights.
The IAWM said that, following the horrors inflicted by Israel on the people of Gaza last year and decades where Israel had denied Palestinians the most basic human rights, this latest Israeli action was proof of the need for the international community to isolate and boycott Israel economically and diplomatically.

12 People On Monday (Feb 15 2009) I listened in a mixture of disbelief & disgust to the morning radio news which mentioned that 12 civilians died in By monday evening the story was even further down the playlist. Whilst the duration of the story was unchanged, the apology had been replaced by regrets over the incident due to the damage it would undoubtably do to the image of the offensive. Further comment informed the listening public that the use of rockets was being suspended & that this would also hinder the progress of offensive. This only served to add to the list of unanswered questions that were spilling over in my head…. Why was this not reported as murder? Why were we not advised that 12 people were killed? Why was the passive (“died”) used? Why the abstract “loss of life”? Who has “lost” here? Will anyone gain? Humanity? Will anyone every be held accountable for this? What would happen if 12 innocent people were killed by rocket attack on a house in |
