In The Irish Times today there are two letters, the first of which states:

Madam, – Now we all know the feeling of being used, of being degraded, of being paid off for a dirty little service. Ahern, Cowen, and the others who will traipse obediently to Hillsborough on our behalf are debasing the Irish peace process for the benefit of US war propaganda. They have turned Hibernia into the prostitute of the temple of Mars.

I will not read the second letter to which I refer but I suggest that Members read it. It is from a decent Irishman living in America who believes that what is happening is a disgrace.
