Press Release

Rose Gentle, the mother of a British soldier killed in Iraq, will address a public meeting entitled 'The War Comes Home' on Thursday September 8th at 7.30pm in Wynn's Hotel on Dublin's Abbey street. Rose's son, Gordon Gentle, was killed on June 28th 2004 by a roadside bomb in Basra, Iraq.

Mrs. Gentle has been invited to speak at a public meeting entitled 'The War Comes Home', organised by the Dublin Catholic Worker Movement. 5 Catholic Workers are facing trial in Dublin's Four Courts on October 24th 2005 for disarming a US Navy plane at Shannon Airport before the outbreak of the Iraq war (www.peaceontrial.com).

Mrs. Gentle, 40, from Pollok in Glasgow, stood against Britain's Armed Forces Minister Adam Ingram in the British General election last May. She campaigned to bring British troops home from Iraq and won 1,513 votes. She recently helped launch a legal bid to secure an independent inquiry in Britain into the legality of the conflict.

Other speakers on the night will include Catholic Worker anti-war defendant Ciaron O'Reilly. O'Reilly will speak about his upcoming trial for disarming a US plane at Shannon and the Ireland's role in the ongoing occupation of Iraq. Finally, Gustavo Barbosa will address the murder of Jean Charles De Menezes and why the British government's shoot-to-kill policy is flawed.
