"He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." Einstein

You will doubtless have seen coverage of the crisis which is
developing inside Burma at the moment. The involvement of the
Buddhist monks in the protests against the junta is an extraordinary
and powerful movement which promises hope for the people of Burma at last.
China is well-understood to be the major supporter of the Burmese
generals. BAI have decided to hold a protest demonstration outside
the Chinese Embassy in Dublin on Tuesday morning to encourage them to
change their stance on Burma. BAI will deliver a protest letter to
the Embassy and your support would very much appreciated if you could
come and join us at any time during the demonstration.
CHINESE EMBASSY, 40 AILESBURY ROAD, DUBLIN 4.
TUESDAY, 25th September 2007 8.30am - 10.30am
