Anybody watching that Prime Time special on Planning last night.
They sure do things differently in Clare.
In your piece you say , "These charges arise out of their 3/2/03 nonviolent disarmament of a US Navy war plane at Shannon Airport en route to Iraq".
This is the same aircraft that was damaged by Mary Kelly, and as I recall it was reported from her trial that the aircraft was a transport aircraft en route to Italy.
Which is the correct version ?
It was a US Navy aircraft. It was indeed the same as had been disarmed earlier by Mary Kelly. It was en route to the Middle East as part of the preparations for the attack on Iraq. It may well have been stopping in Italy to refuel again on the way (Military Base in US - Shannon - NATO Base in Italy - US Military base in Middle East was a common route for the military (and their charter companies) over the last couple of years --- spot the weak link!) but where else it refueled on the way to Iraq is a complete irrelevancy. The claims that "it was going to Italy" are a smokescreen by the state to hide the fact that it was part of a war effort.
