Irish physiotherapist in Iraq - RTE report

. I remember meeting Dublin physiotherapist Pearse Stokes at an anti-war demonstration in 2003. I vaguely recall a conversation starting up after I handed him a leaflet about our Ploughshares action at Shannon, the resulting trial, etc. (http://www.indymedia.ie/article/77460). Pearse is one of those rare humanitarians who embody modesty. He reminds me of the way Tony Galvin, the former Irish soccer player, used to play: 'Head down, socks down, corner flag here I come.' This analogy is merely to denote the 110% focus and commitment Pearse seems to go about in achieving his humanitarian goals - one can safely guess he is a better physiotherapist than Tony was a soccer player. |
