    Does anyone have any up to date contact info for them? I'm just wondering if there's any protests planned against the ISIS invasion of Syria and Iraq

    They only protest when the US and UK are involved, they always ignore the slaughter by others

    Tbh, I don't think it's really under GAAW's remit to protest against ISIS. They seem to be mainly concerned with Shannon and US and to some extent Israel/Palestine.
    They are not a general "anti war" movement. Had they been there are many more wars and conflicts they would have been protesting against.

    We've been over this before. GAAW didn't stop the show, economics did.

    You'd have to be pretty sad and petty to start a thread like this.

    They were pretty quiet about Crimea too.

    They should change their name to 'Galway Alliance Against Certain Wars' GAACW. Far more accurate.

    Anyway didn't they win anyway? NATO is pulling out of Afghanistan and left Iraq long ago. Now who says fifty people marching around Eyre Square doesn't have an impact on the world stage!

    Time to disband their work is done!

    We could tell you, but then it would undermine the intelligence work done by...
