This Saturday, at 2pm in Parnell Square in Dublin, there will be a national anti-war protest. I don't know where you personally stand - whether you're utterly apathetic, whether you think the US's motivation is oil or power or genuine concern for the stability of the world, whether you think Saddam is a genuine threat or a bogeyman (or a bit of both) - and really I don't care. But the thing is this: the most powerful military force ever is preparing to ignore the wishes of the vast majority of the people in the world, and go to war. This is bad. This really has the potential to affect us all. Now is your chance to do something about it. You may not get another. Never mind that the protest may contain traces of tree-huggers - this is important. Please show up.
