US is rushing bomb shipments to Israel in support of Israel's campaign in Lebanon

Demonstration Tuesday 25th July, US embassy Ballsbridge against US decision to speed up delivery of bombs to Israel for Lebanon campaign

US Citizens in Ireland Against the War will be demonstrating at the US Embassy Ballsbrdige against the US government decision to step up delivery of bombs to Israel for use in its military campaign in Lebanon.

The weapons that the United States is sending to Israel are part of a multimillion-dollar arms sale package approved last year that Israel is able to draw on as needed. Israel has requested speeded up delivery following its bombinb campaign in Lebanon and this is seen as an indication that Israel still had a long list of targets in Lebanon to strike.

Bombing of civilian areas is a war crime. Join us with banners, signs, and slogans.
Tuesdy 25th July 5:30 -6:30 pm US Embassy Ballsbridge

Thank you

You'll be protesting at the Syrian & Iranian embassy's for providing rockets when?

You'll be protesting at the Lebanese embassy for providing it's territory to hezzbollocks when?

If you dont your Hypocrites of the highest order, Violence from both sides here must be protested.

Hezzbollah bit off more than they can chew here, the israelis are far better Trained, Motivated, Experienced. Remember hezzbollocks have wound up killing mostly arabs in israel, not jews-BRILLIANT.

WarMongering arabs are no better than war mongering jews, yet who will get a free pass from the left?

Better trained, motivated, experienced? Great, that's just what we need. A better motivated, trained, experienced, and ARMED bunch of war criminals. There is a slight difference between attacking military personnel and bombing civilians and destroying their infrastructure, Notwithstanding that the Israelis have mandatiory conscription, anyone engaging in military activities must understand that they are at risk - some woulld say legitimately - of being attacked, killed, or captured. The same should not apply to the average citizen, who has not willingly engaged in military activities. Hizbollah attacked soldiers - true, it was a deliberately provactive act - but they were armed, trained (motivated and experienced) soldiers who could reasonably expect to come under some form of attack at some stage. Somehow, I think those Lebanese children were less prepared.
