Full description

Demonstration at the GPO, Dublin

The Dublin Region of the Workers' Party will hold a demonstration on
Thursday evening, 3rd August in protest at the ongoing slaughter of
civilians and Israeli aggression towards Lebanon and Palestine. The
protest will run from 6.00pm to 8.00pm.

Israeli aggression which aims at destroying the state of Lebanon and
terrorising its people must end immediately. Terrorism is not the
preserve of non-governmental organisations. It is used by Israel to
control the Middle East region, armed and assisted by the US. Almost
one million (quarter of Ireland's population) have now fled their
homes. But there is no escape - people are bombed whether they flee
or if they remain at home. Children make up a major proportion of
those killed and injured.

The United States (and Britain) stand virtually alone in their
support of Israeli war crimes in Lebanon. Blooded in war-torn Iraq,
their goal is domination of Middle East oil resources and the return
of US-friendly rule in Syria and Iran. Destruction of Lebanon is a
step leading to confrontation with these countries. Some in the US
Bush clique already speak of military strikes on Iranian nuclear
power plants. Gunboat diplomacy is the order of the day for those who
lead the world, with no regard for human rights or the United Nations.

Comments

While everybody is there we should take a moment to remember the thousands of civilians killed by Hezbollah and the PLO over the years at schools, markets and shopping centers just so as people are clear that we're anti-war and not anti-American or anti-Israeli.
