You don't need a permit to set up a street stall in Ireland for political/campaign events. All cities and a number of large town both north and south have stalls and demos in solidarity with the Palestinians - some on a weekly basis. I guess the cops took advantage of the fact that this man was on his own and it was easier to lift him rather than deal with two screaming zionists.
It is never a good idea to have less than two people holding the fort and I'm surprised to hear that one person was manning the stall in Galway since this city has a very active Palestine Solidarity Campaign group.
However, the zionist have very little active support in Ireland outside of the rabid right all of whom could be accommodated in the back room of a small pub.
