" Irish jury acquits axe-attackers on US plane"

July 26 2006 at 11:18AM


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Dublin - A jury here has acquitted five protesters who admitted damaging a US Navy cargo plane with hammers and an axe.

The five were arrested at Shannon Airport, a major refuelling point for US military transports to and from Iraq, in 2003 after damaging the aircraft and erecting a makeshift "peace shrine" beside it.

The five said they had thought they could save lives in Iraq by vandalising the plane, which had been damaged by axe-wielding protesters in an earlier demonstration."


ARTICLE SNIPPET #2: "Sinn Fein, the political arm of the Irish Republican Army, said vandalising US aircraft was "a justified response to Irish complicity in the illegal occupation of Iraq and use of Irish facilities as a pit stop for US warplanes"."

Yup, those appeasniks got off!

ARTICLE SNIPPET #2: "Sinn Fein, the political arm of the Irish Republican Army, said vandalising US aircraft was "a justified response to Irish complicity in the illegal occupation of Iraq and use of Irish facilities as a pit stop for US warplanes"."

That should be sent to the US State Department!! Proves to me that IRA and AQ are linked.
