The Pitstop Ploughshares are a group of five anti war activists who in February 2003 disarmed a US Navy Plane. Within a month of their action, 3 of the 4 US contractors using Shannon Civilian Airport, left Ireland. They began their trial today, which will last over a week, and could see them landed with ten years if found guilty.
You can follow the progress of the trial and get all the background information, as well as info on solidarity actions and vigils at www.indymedia.ie or at www.warontrial.com
Karen Fallon is amongst the activists on trial. Karen is a British Trident Ploughshares activist, who lived at Faslane Peace Camp for three years before her action at Shannon, and has taken numerous disarmament actions. Her bail conditions, following her release from three months remand, have meant that she could not leave Ireland to come home to see friends and family in Scotland.
Lets bring her home. PITSTOP PLOUGHSHARES - Not guilty!
