Columbus, OH forms "Green Mile" to Meet Thatcher for nytire@ursula; Tue, 8 Feb 2000 02:53:19 -0500 Via NY Transfer News * All the News That Doesn't Fit source: "Tom Breckel" Feb 07, 2000 ACTION ALERT THE GREEN MILE TO ASSEMBLE IN COLUMBUS On April 2nd, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher will be visiting Columbus for a speaking engagement. As you are well aware, the record of Ms. Tinknickers leaves a lot to be desired in the area of Irish affairs. Under her watch, her administration repeatedly tried to beat down the nationalist population of the north of Ireland. In addition, her administration was responsible for giving the order to perform daily strip searches of women POWs in Armagh Jail, the assassination of the Gibralter Three, the deaths of 10 POWs in Long Kesh who were in protest of the removal of Political Status for POWs, use of the Special Air Service (SAS) in shoot-to-kill operations like the one in Loughgall, and countless other assassinations and black-ops. Our goal is to recreate the GREEN MILE that formed in New York during the times of the hunger strikes outside of the British Consulate. Thousands of supporters showed up to protest the actions of England. We are asking you, as a member of the Irish Community here in Ohio, to join with us in forcing Maggie Thatcher to remember the reason why she is so hated by the Irish and Irish-Americans around the globe. We ask that each Irish/human-rights group select a coordinator. This person will be the point of contact for that club, unit or division. Posters and flyers will be going out shortly, and they will be sent to these individuals. In addition, several press releases will be sent with the hope that these coordinators will get them into various newsletters and newspapers. We hope that you will turn out with the Irish Community here in Columbus in providing an appropriate welcome for a murderer such as herself. More information will come and a web site will be set up to provide information and with contact details. **************************************** For more information contact: Bryan Cummings at 614-792-6772 provo@columbus.rr.com **************************************** ================================================================= NY Transfer News Collective * A Service of Blythe Systems Since 1985 - Information for the Rest of Us 339 Lafayette St., New York, NY 10012 http://www.blythe.org e-mail: nyt@blythe.org ================================================================= nytire-02.08.00-02:53:21-7583
