There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says
British doctors working in Gaza have described the territory as a ?slaughterhouse,? where the patients they are treating are severely malnourished.
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.

Is the global fertility crash due, at least in part, to worries over the climate? A new Swedish study finds little evidence that concern about climate change is an important contributor to low birth rates.

RSF Head Office has prepared 2,450 leaflets for distribution at this event : they have been divided-up into 700 'packs/booklets' and , from experience (!) , will be gone within two hours....
More info at the 'Related Link' , below.
Thanks,
Sharon.
Some of the RSF leaflets which comprise the 700 'packs' which will be distributed in Dublin city centre on Saturday 5th May 2012.
Hi !
This commemoration went ahead today as planned , with only two minor incidents : one parking related , the other drink/joy related - but both were well handled !
As well as the twenty-two male hunger-strikers , it was highlighted today by one of the RSF speakers that there was also 340 Irish Republican women who went on hunger-strike in 1923 , and the speaker detailed the personel history of one of those women.
A Piper , an RSF Colour Party and uniformed representatives from Na Fianna Éireann and Cumann na mBan were on the parade that made its way from the Garden of Remembrance to the GPO - a brief report and a few pics can be seen at the 'Related Link' , below.
Thanks,
Sharon.

..there is no mention of the ongoing hunger strikes by Palestinian prisoners against Israeli internment and conditions, given that they draw inspiration from Bobby Sands and his stand against similar treatment under occupation.

Figures are uncertain..between 1,500 and 2,500 depending on source, and ten have been shifted to hospital due to deteriorating condition.
The Myrish Chimes carried a report yesterday on Israel's anniversary of 'Independence'....celebrated in the Ballsbridge Hotel under tight security..
Attendees included Rory Quinn and the appropriately named papal nuncio Charlie Brown, billed as the 'George Clooney of the Diplomatic Corps'...
No I didn't make it up. I think this will bring it in

No Palestinians need apply. Insufficient leibensraum for untermenschen.
Dublin Vigil for Irish and Palestinian Hunger Strikers

Hi !
The plight of Palestinian political prisoners was referenced in a speech from the platform by one of the three RSF speakers and attention was also drawn to the work done by RSF representatives in the 'Network for Political Prisoners' group (an organisation which consists of , amongst others , the Turkish Halk Cephesi group and the Philippines-based NDF organisation) but I didn't mention those comments in my brief blog report because it was just that - a brief blog report about the event.
Incidentally , like some other Irish Republican organisations (but not all !) RSF has drawn attention to the Palestinian issue in recent statements , and not reserved such supportive comments for street events only - see the 'Related Link' below.
And I hope all Irish Republicans never forget that we should commemorate all twenty-two Irish hunger-strikers , and not just the ten men who died in 1981.
Thanks,
Sharon.
The Irish are sick sore and tired of martyrs.
Hi 'SA' !
I don't agree : from the favourable reaction we got on Saturday - and the reaction we get every Easter etc for other similar commemorations - I would think that we Irish are respectful of those who sought to challenge injustice in this country.
Thanks,
Sharon.
Only some Irish Still Alive, like the Shinners who now seek to distance themselves from their former comrades who gave their lives so that they can sit at a table with their Unionist colleagues and act all respectable.
For them, the likes of Bobby Sands is nothing more than something to be forgotton and swept under the carpet. At least true Republicans never forget, never sell out and stay true to the cause by celebrating those who died bravely to liberate Ireland from under the British and Capitalist yoke of opression.
His disrespect for his own life reflected his disrespect for the lives of others.
In taking his own life other people lived because he was not around to kill them.
..takes the Oscar...
I respectfully suggest you take the trouble to read some of his writings; and then go give yourself a well deserved kick in the ignorant hole you made that statement from.
But then you probably think Connolly and the 1916 people were 'terrorists'...and that Palestinians are the agressors in their occupied homeland.
Maybe you need a change of kidergarten.
I have nothing more to add to the ill-informed comment deposited here by 'Non-terrorist' as Opus has answered for me.
Thank you for that , Opus,
Sharon.
