As part of the international day of protest which saw dozens of anti-war marches around the world anarchists in Ireland took part in the Dublin march.
Saturday saw a major riot in Dublin in response to an attempted Loyalist 'Love Ulster' march through the main street of the capital. For three hours hundreds rioted in the city centre, banks and shops were attacked and looted and cars were set on fire.

This article first submitted to indymedia.ie suggests the riot shows that "he who sows misery, harvests anger". The author is a WSM member living in Dublin, this is his personal view of events.

And it is on this question, the manner of organising society, of fighting for change, and of organising as revolutionaries that major differences emerge
Give Asylum Seekers the right to stay and work- End deportations.
Many Asylum Seekers from around Ireland face deportation by the Irish state.
