Illegal tree clearance at Tara, Indymedia.ie site is down,help needed

I have forwarded these messages as the irish indymedia site is down:-

There was a thread on Indymedia where Campaign to Save Tara had posted
a call for help and published news stories about recent event, with
pictures. The thread has now been removed. Anyone know what's going on?

" in the Tara-Skryne warzone. Serious damage has been done to Rath Lugh, Ardsallagh and Soldiers' Hill (Blundlestown). But we were able to slow down ongoing destruction work to a certain degree with "direct action " messures.

The damage to Rath Lugh is the heaviest loss we had to accept. And I have the feeling tree felling and earth-removal from around Rath Lugh has not been concluded yet. I will post more information about Rath Lugh including pics over the next couple of days.
The only area still undamaged so far is a Coillte plantation known is Lismullin Woods near Rath Lugh. The Gabhra runs through those woods, and a base camp is under in the plantation to serve as last line of defence for our archaeological and historical heritage within the Tara - Skryne Valley.

Please, if you got the time, head out to this camp, or the nerve centre of the Vigil on Tara Hill, and play your role in our defensive war for our heritage and culture. Basic food supplies are always needed and welcome. "
