no country can be neutral, it can be peaceful though

category national | anti-war / imperialism | opinion/analysis author Tuesday September 23, 2003 14:39author by paul cummins Report this post to the editors

motion to be put to IAWM meeting for sat

"The IAWM should call for a referendum to the Irish constitution to enshrine neutrality, and to ensure that the government of the Republic of
Ireland cannot a) send troops on international service, except those that are peacekeeping and have an explicit UN mandate; b) let our facilities, or our airspace be used, by foreign forces on missions that do not have a UN peacekeeping mandate; c) ensure engagement in any peacekeeping operation, or consent to let our air space/facilities be used for same has to have the prior consent of the Irish parliament, the voting procedure to require 75% in favour."

i agree with a bc as a good important steps to be achieved but putting forward whole notion of ireland being neutral is a misguided waste of time.

rather then being neutral we should actively seek out peace, the planeslrefueling at shannon is bertie nand cos ide of neutralitly which obviously shows enshrining that is not enough.

we should instill policies that actively hinder warmakers actions... in not sure how though
not trade arms, not alow it citizens to messed around in their countries etc
