What about the facts that Ireland has an arms industry (mostly 'dual purpose' hi-tech components, that are about as dual purpose as a F1 engine, - highly unlikely to be used in a taxi) and a large percentage of the licenses are for export to Israel, including parts for the weapons system of Apache helicopters (manufactured by Analog in Limerick) and parts for the weapons that they fire.
Irish politicans speak with forked tongues when they speak of peace, because they have yet to embargo any sale of weapons grade technology to Israel. They'd rather lose Palestinian lives than a corporate donor, or a few potential votes.
Our politicians are complicit in the suffering of Palestinians, Iraqis, Afghans and who knows what others through our arms industry and the use of Shannon by the US military.
Did the IAWM condemn and call for protests against the Hamas regime when they were slaughtering opponents, including Marxists, following their election victory? Theres a lot of double standards being practised chaps, not only by the FF/Green Coalition...
Michael Martins so called condemnation of Israels attack on innocent civilians in Gaza is laughable. This man and his colleagues have argued voiceferously for the moral, legal, political and economic justification to leave Shannon Airport open to the US military. This Government has acted outside its own constitution and International law to carry out acts of genocide on the people of Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine.
Michael Martin and his colleague Mary O Rourke have signed the legal paperwork allowing overflights and landings of US military flights, on their way to kill innocent people in the middle east-millions of them.
Michael Martins 'condemnation' is laughable if it was'nt so hypocritical-the IAWM accepting this 'condemnation is , at least niaeve.
Michael Martin called us al Sadam supporters when we went against the policy the government wanted to follow...or have we forgotten this....
Michael Martin stands against everything this Country stood for, he brought disgrace to the people of this country and it's laws. To 'welcome' his 'condemnation' is something he could only wish for at christmas. The IAWM should have used this opertunity to condemn him and his government for their disgusting actions in their suport for the US and UK, in killing millions, and not validate this warmonger.
I am appalled at this latest move, ...
