IAWM BBC Studios Belfast: Demonstration/Protest against BBC/Panorama Bus
Friday 20th August 2010: 6pm-7pm + travel time from Dublin
Irish Anti-War Movement is looking at the possibility of arranging a bus from Dublin city to BBC in Belfast and back, to demonstrate/protest against the airing of the outrageously pro-Israeli Panorama documentary "Death in the Med". The documentary tried to justify the murder of the 9 peace activists on board the Marvi Marmara on the 31st May 2010.
If you are as outraged as many of us in Irish Anti-War Movement and if we can get approximately 50 people to sign up for this protest, we can book the bus at a cost of €10 per person.
Obviously we need to take travel time into account for getting up and back to the protest.
Please sign up if you are interested and most importantly please share this facebook event to your profile.
Or express your interest via email

Can everyone please take 2 minutes to call Eason shop in O'connell Street, Dublin to object to Mass Murderer Tony Blair's book-signing.
You can leave a message fao Martin Black (manager) with the person who answers, or ask to speak to the manager direct.
Apparently some staff are not happy with the signing!
The activists in Dublin are doing a great job outside the shop late every afternoon, with a book of condolences for the victims of Blair's lies, and a megaphone which can be heard throughout the store.
The shop manager was on the shop floor yesterday, and he is the one that wants this signing to go ahead.
Phone once, twice or everyday!
