The Selence of the Shams

Many of the 100,500 people in Ireland who protested against the Iraq invasion have long ago realised that this Irish government refuses to accommodate their objections. Knowing that the Irish State is not going to take a moral stand by withdrawing the Shannon facilities before next week's US presidential election, the hope cannot be extinguished that somebody else will cry stop before it's too late and George Bush is returned to Washington with a licence to resume his orgy of illegality.

If the Paddy's Day shamrock- bearing Irish State is too compromised to do the right thing, it is not too late for that other institution that forms one of the strongest bonds between this country and the US, the Catholic Church. Muslims pleaded in Liverpool pleaded for Ken Bigley. In what is depicted as a global showndown between Christian-Islam- Jewish axis. The Silence of the Shams of Evil will triumph once again.
