MP3: Ciaron O'Reilly speaks to the crowd
Did anything happen in Ireland to mark the 4th. anniversary of the war and continued Irish involvement in it?
Nice little gathering in Shannon happened, about 15-20 people, mostly stalwarts. It was organised by stalwart Conor Cregan. Deirdre from the Pitstop Ploughshares laid a wreath in remembrance of the war dead and said a few words; everyone else laid daffodils. A few people spoke.
The numbers who feel it necessary to remember the war dead are small, which is somewhat depressing, given Shannon is the place where the munitions go through. But it was a good ceremony and better than nothing at all. Many people have moved on, unfortunately. A combination of bandwagon jumping with some and strategic thinking with other, more committed activists. It's a terrible pity there is so little sense of urgency about keeping up the pressure around Shannon.
