Benefit Pub Quiz For Shannon defendants in Dublin

During the US war on Iraq and the afterwards during the occupation as many as 60 people were arrested or had files sent to the DPP for taking action against Irelands role in the war machine. Some are still waiting for verdicts, some have been found not guilty but quite a number have been convicted and fined for their part in opposing the war.

An injury to one is an injury to all


The Dublin Workers Solidarity Movement is organising a pub quiz to raise funds for the Shannon defendants (most of the arrests took place at Shannon airport where US warplanes were being refuelled). Come along and have fun while helping to ensure that the individual activists seized by the state do not have to cover costs of the fines and court cases out of their own pockets.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes. I'd make them as true to the intended spirit as possible..
