Americans protest against Bush’s war

AMERICANS living in Ireland staged an anti-war demonstration outside the US embassy in Dublin yesterday.

Although associated with many St Patrick's Day festivities, the presence of the Stars and Stripes flag was notably absent as many US citizens expressed shame at the behaviour of their government.

A group of over 150 people attended the protest organised by US Citizens in Ireland for Alternatives to War outside the embassy in Ballsbridge to voice their outright opposition to the US-led war against Iraq.
