Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.
Dr. Tom Potokar, a plastic surgeon specializing in burn injuries, has worked in Gaza 16 times but said this mission had revealed a level of destruction far greater than his last visit in 2023,
It is time to talk about the Out of Control Immigration. Mon Mar 31, 2025 22:12 | imc
For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Why Are the Irish Media Ignoring an Apparent Islamist Knife Attack? Sat Aug 09, 2025 09:00 | Andrew Devine
When a man in Dublin stabs a police officer while shouting "Allahu Akbar" you can be pretty sure it's not the work of an indigenous Irishman. So why are the media at pains to pretend it is, asks Andrew Devine.

CABHAIR have confirmed five (heavily-sponsored!) swimmers , so far , with another two 'probables' and one 'possible' : also confirmed is the arrival of 'Santa' , mince pies , swans in 'attack mode' and evil elves 'guarding' the gateway !
It's looking like this year's Swim will be as successful as the thirty-four that have gone before it , and all in aid of thirty-two..... ;-)
I'll post more updates here re the Swim as soon as I get same.
Thanks,
Sharon.
"He says he's been here since last year.......! "
Hi !
Six swimmers have now been confirmed for the Inchicore Swim , and CABHAIR have also organised Christmas Day swims in Wexford and Armagh : details to follow.
Thanks!
Sharon.
" I'd much rather be in Wexford. Or Armagh.....! "
Hi !
The CABHAIR Christmas Day Swim in County Wexford will see six swimmers take to the water at Rosslare Strand at 11am , with the County Armagh Swim going ahead at 12 Noon in Craigavon Lake - proof positive that it's not only we Dubs that are crazy.....!
Thanks,
Sharon.
Hi ! Two swimmers have been confirmed for the CABHAIR, Swim in Craigavon , unless any are still in there from last year...... Thanks, Sharon.
Hi ! The 35th consecutive CABHAIR Christmas Swim was held , as planned, yesterday in Inchicore , Dublin - on what was , compared to last year , a fine Summer's day ! Five sponsored swimmers took to the water (with 3 doing the same in Craigavon Lake and 5 in Wexford) , with one early 'casualty' who wasn't allowed by the Organisers to take part , for possible health reasons. Also , Santa was in great form , despite a twenty-five minute delay forced on him by armed State thugs , and a man with a guitar entertained the crowd in competition with twin-speakers blasting out Irish Rebel songs : in between all of which money was raised for Republican prisoners..... More at the 'Related Link' below , including a few pics and a link to three 'Swim' videos and over eighty additional pics ! Thanks , Sharon.
All won Gold , but wrapped themselves in 'Silver' !
Santa was 'delayed' , but eventually 'hip-hopped' his way to the Swim....
prisoners?
.....prisoners. As stated in the piece. Thanks anyway ! Sharon.
Well done to the swimmers in Dublin, (and Wexford Armagh) as well as the organisers for the swims for Republican prisoners/cabhair
Hi M. Brody ! Thanks for your comment - appreciated ! And it gives me the chance to 'butt' in and add that each of the five swimmers in Dublin was presented with a hankie from the prisoners in Portlaoise , and a raffle for a bodhrón was held between the swimmers after they had earned their money - the winner was Dougie , one of the regular swimmers for CABHAIR. Thanks again , Sharon.
Our blog was emailed a few pics from the CABHAIR Swim in Wexford , but only the following one was deemed suitable for publication - the rest of the pics showed the five lads in various stages of dress and distress as it finally dawned on them that 'the beach' was not , alas , the new nickname for the local , heated, swimming pool....... ;-) ! Also - our 'non-swimmer' in Dublin spent the last four days contacting those who had sponsored him , and offered them their money back (Declan was unable to fulfill his side of the bargain , for health reasons) : not one person asked for the few bob to be returned to them , asking, instead, for it to be donated to Cabhair ! Much appreciated , folks - grma ! Thanks, Sharon.
CABHAIR Swim , Wexford - 25/12/2011 . Five swimmers seek shelter behind a banner.....!
