The famous blonde-haired Deirdre Clancy was arrested yesterday for vandalising an American plane refueling at Shannon airport.

I found her statement of purpose entertaining: “She regards war as part of [sic] parcel of the system which demeans women; legalizes corruption of many different forms; discriminates against, locks up and labels the so-called ‘mentally ill’, without questioning the sanity of the military-industrial system in which we are all complicit.”

However there’s a serious purpose. If you are an individual citizen opposed to the Iraq war, in a country whose military forces are not going to participate, there’s not much you can do except bash American targets.
