Way to stick your nose where it doesn't belong US Gov. Can always count on that group to fail.

I am glued to this topic thread too, I had went out for dinner and as soon as I returned home I jump onto the computer. I am nervous and curious at the same time, hopefully it turns out for the best.

"Invited" is a nice way of saying commanded, I think

Isn't this interesting?

That makes my Irish blood proud.

God help you if you anger the Irish.

Lets not forget there is also a massive protest organised today in London.
Should be interesting day all round...

I hope they don't have metal pipes on board...it is kind of stupid to bring metal pipes to a gun fight......

I assume you mean for Israel?

There is a big rally in Dublin this afternoon. The guards may have a busy time 'persuading' people not to storm the embassy.

Apologies - for those who don't know guards=police

So you're proud that people may use violence to bring down the embassy?

Not trying to nit pick...

I'm proud that my people are standing up to a fascist oppressive government when no one else in the world will.
