Resistance To War

- Public Meeting in Galway

Details of public meeting in Galway with Mary Kelly, the Pitstop Ploughshares, Nuria Dunne and Adam from Gluaiseacht.

Public Meeting to commemorate second anniversary of American assault on Afghanistan.

On Tuesday the 7th of October the Ecology Society of NUI Galway is hosting a public meeting around the theme of resistance to war, to commemorate the second anniversary of the American assault on Afghanistan, and to launch the Top Oil Boycott campaign in the west. This is happening in the concourse building of NUI Galway, that’s the long low one with the two towers, in room AC203 at 8pm. All welcome.

The Top Oil Boycott campaign aims firstly to change the policy of the Top Oil company, who re-fuel the U.S. military at Shannon, and secondly to investigate other companies complicit with the turning of Shannon airport into a warport, and subject them to similar consumer boycotts.

Top Oil, or Tedcastles, have about 100 petrol stations with most of their business in home heating oil. In Galway Top Oil’s distributor is called the ‘Galway Oil Company’ and they have been selling oil to NUI Galway.

Speaking at the meeting will be:

Mary Kelly, a nurse and mother, who did solidarity work in Palestine, including bringing medical care to people trapped and under siege in the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, and was lately on trial for disarming a military plane at Shannon.

Deirdre Clancy, a editor, writer and feminist activist, and is one of the Pitstop Ploughshares Five, who disarmed a military plane in Shannon in February, and who are awaiting trial.

Ciaron O'Reilly, presently working at a homeless shelter in Dublin and is long time Catholic Worker and non-violent resister, and is one of the Pitstop Ploughshares Five, who disarmed a military plane in Shannon in February, and who are awaiting trial.

Nuria Dunne, Galway based Iraqi exile, peace activist, teacher and mother.

Adam Conway, an activist with Gluaiseacht, the island wide ecology network of which Galway’s Ecology Society is a part, he is about to go on trial for breaking into a military base in Scotland, and will be giving an up-date on current peace activism, and what you can all come along to get involved in.
