21st March 2009, (1.00pm - 5.30pm)
To mark the 6th anniversary of the commencement of the Imperialist US war on Iraq and the total destruction and termination of the long standing policy of Irish Neutrality by the Fianna Fail Government by their decision to allow President Bush (a great President according to Fianna Fail Taoiseach Mr. Ahern) to use Shannon Airport in that war, PANA has organised a Peace Forum on the 21st of March 2009 from 1.00pm to 5.30pm
The opening address was by Dr. Sawsan Assaf of the Irish Centre for Human Rights, NUI Galway.
Other speakers included: Roger Cole of PANA, Michael Youlton of the IAWM, Prof. John Maguire, AWI, Noeleen Hartigan of Amnesty International, Patricia McKenna of the Green Party, John Lennon of Shannonwatch.org and Prof. Gernot Biehler, TCD. We expect other speakers to confirm in a few days.
