Patrick Murphy’s column in the Irish News of l8/6/22 entitled ‘Pope’s comments may help avert global conflict’ are courageous and challenging. Courageous in that Ireland (and most of Europe) are caught up in Russia phobia and war propaganda being peddled by our main stream media and military industrial complex.

Mairead Maguire & members of the Peace People today meant to call for the freedom of Julian Assange.Mairead today said “We appeal to the British and Australian government to stop the extradition on Julian Assange. Please let Julian go home to Australia to his family and friends”

Nobel Laureate Mairead Maguire expressed her sadness that Julian, who she has several times nominated for a Nobel Peace prize, should be subjected to this cruel extradition to the USA. The Peace People will hold a vigil on Thursday 23rd of June at 1pm at the wall there for Julian. All welcome!!
Dear Mairead, I am excited to share the recording for Women of the World Call for Peace Now, where we were joined by a remarkable group of women dedicated to peace and transforming our nuclear legacy. Deep bows of gratitude to our extraordinary speakers, Nobel Peace Laureate Mairead Maguire, Ambassador Elayne Whyte Gomez and Dr. Paula Garb. These women are all leading in a new way, showing us a pathway forward to peace and disarmament. They are calling on us to awaken and join together to eliminate nuclear weapons from the face of the Earth. I am excited to share their wisdom, insight and experience here in this recording. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMwUj-UIut4 We Invite You to Share as Widely as You Are Moved!
