Scott Ritter Speaks!

category galway | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Saturday July 05, 2003 18:18author by Vinnie - Galway Alliance Against War Report this post to the editors

On Thursday night, Scott Ritter the former UN weapons inspector for Iraq spoke to a packed room in the Menlo Park Hotel, Galway, at a meeting hosted by the Galway Alliance Against War. Scott was in Ireland to testify at Mary Kelly's trial, and spoke at length about her actions in disarming a US warplane at Shannon airport, and how he felt more people need to become active citizens, rather than just passive consumers, if we are to make into a reality the notion that both Ireland and America are democratic republics.

Scott spoke of many other issues and was warmly received by the audience and many questions were raised.

Scott Ritter's speech was tremendous, humourous as well as hard-hitting. It is well-worth listening to, and fair play to Vinnie for making it available.
The 250+ people in the hall were enthralled, and were inspired to respond generously (and almost silently) to an appeal for financial support for Mary Kelly's case.
