EU Battle Groups – new legislation due to be passed by Government early next month

category dublin | eu | press release author Tuesday June 27, 2006 01:10author by Sinéad Ní Bhroin on behalf of the - Peace & Neutrality Allianceauthor email pana at eircom dot net Report this post to the editors

PANA Press Release June 27th 2006
For further info contact Roger Cole 087-2611597

On the 5th of July the Irish Government intends to pass into law legislation which will allow the Irish Army to be integrated into the Battle Groups of the European Union. This is a major turning point in Irish history. An Army which was established to gain Irish Independence from the British Union is now being integrated into a de facto Army of the European Union. Disturbingly, this important legislation is being passed with almost no debate or media coverage.

Roger Cole, Chair of the Peace & Neutrality Alliance said today; “For 10 years PANA has campaigned against the process by which the Irish political elite, slice by slice, has integrated Ireland into the US/EU military structures. We helped win the first Nice referendum and to organise one the largest anti-war demonstration in recent times on February 15, 2003.

Yet the Government joined NATO PfP without the promised referendum, has terminated the policy of Irish Neutrality by allowing Shannon Airport to be used by the US in their war on Iraq, refuses to search planes known to carry prisoners to torture centres and has now decided to integrate the Irish Army into EU Battle Groups which are little more than an extension of the NATO military structures.

All they want is to drag us deeper and deeper into the quicksand of the resource wars of the 21st century, especially in the Middle East in which the defeat of the US/EU is the only inevitable outcome."

For current information & analysis on Ireland’s role in the EU Battle Groups you can download a recently published PANA document entitled 'The EU BATTLE GROUPS: Regiments of the Empire' from our website http://www.pana.ie/idn/160106.html. We hope you find it useful.

Notice of Press Conference & Demonstration
PANA intends holding a Press Conference on the EU Battle Groups on the 4th of July in Buswells Hotel at 11.30am. PANA will also lead a protest against the impending legislative change on July 5th, outside the Dáil between 1pm & 2pm.

JFH - surely you mean we reap what we sow?

In any case, this is all excellent news, and it means that there will be more of your excellent army working for novus ordo. Of course it is time that you stood up alongside Knocknagoshel and paid your membership fees.

That Ireland did not join the allied fight against the nazis is shameful, but now you can make amends. You have a great army, well motivated, trained and equipped (though hopelessly short on medium lift helis and no air defence, but never mind). They have done you proud many times while on arduous peace-keeping / enforcement missions and are well respected amongst your peers in the EU.

Welcome onboard!

In the former EU 15, there are close to 40,000,000 less young people than in the 1960s as a result of the secularisation of Europe. To put it another way; the birth rate has collapsed in Europe. Having children is a costly business. Our young men and women can have a great time if they don’t have kids. Banks, Property Speculators, Multi National companies are attracted to States whose Governments allow such an exploitable group of young people to exist. Women, who do not have to stay at home, make terrific employees utilising inherent skills from eons of child rearing. They have a lot more money to spend on luxury goods etc. Don’t fool ourselves that we only have the booming finances that make us unique with our so called “Celtic Tiger”. Germany, Italy, France had their versions of the Celtic Tiger in the 70s and 80s.

Now these economies are on the other side of the ascending economic graph – rapidly going downwards. What you now have is an increasingly aged wealthy society. Now this society needs to be defended. We are part of the EU and have to shoulder our responsibility as well as enjoying ourselves. WE have made this choice by allowing ourselves be persuaded by people with only exploitative degrees in their education i.e. Economists, Bankers, Accountants etc rather than knowledgeable degrees in Christian Doctrine, Latin, Greek, History etc. The former young people of Europe, now elderly and childless, have to be protected from attack from those who have not. We choice Wealth over Christianity. We sow what we reap!

I agree with the writer of the head article. Ireland should not join any European Army because I do not believe that the EU of today is a viable future entity. It is not Terrorism in the world that creates unstableness but the continued dwindling birth rate in countries that were former colonists and are now old and wealthy. The Irish should be perfectly aware of long memories and the resulting conflict (birth rate collapsed among the Unionists in the 60s and 70s, remember Paisley mouthing out that we were ruled from Rome; however the Nationalists started to get the upper hand in the 80s and 90s, more children that could demand more equitable distribution of wealth etc) since our own internal affairs have being so messed up with events after 1690 etc. Has the EU got a future? The answer is NO, when we have to start pouring resources into the army. We have got to look at our lifestyle.

We in Ireland have a small window of opportunity to review the birth rate situation and try to correct it. Then when we know that we have a future; it will be worth defending. Ireland is one of the few countries in Europe that can demographically send its young men to war. Incidentally, there are c. 250,000 less children under twenty years of age in Ireland today than in the early 80s.
