Long time anti war activist and Catholic Worker Ciaron O'Reilly is see here speaking outside the US Embassy in London about the trial of Bradley Manning and also the campaign against Julian Assange by the authorities. Ciaron was part of a group of Catholic Workers who broke into Shannon Airport in February 2003 shortly before the outbreak of the second Gulf War disabling a US Navy plane. After three trials they were eventually found not guilty of the charge against them of "Criminal Damage without Lawful Excuse" as their actions were found to be legally excusable.
