Caoimhe is perhaps better known for protesting at Tony Blair's press
conference in Beirut where she unravelled a banner and accused Blair of
complicity in war crimes, and for her courageous human rights work, both
in Jenin refugee camp and in Baghdad from February 2002-August 2003. She
has also spent the past six months living and working in south Lebanon
in a border village called A'ita al Chaab. She is the only Western
activist living there.
