The WHO is desperate for another pandemic, says Dr David Bell, and seems determined that bird flu is going to be it. So much is riding on it coming along that you can be sure it will.

offsite link The Great Uprooting and the Problem of Immigration Fri Jun 14, 2024 11:00 | Dr David McGrogan
The question of immigration cannot be separated from the deeper issue of whether we are governed nationally or globally, democratically or technocratically, says Dr David McGrogan. We are being deliberately uprooted.

One reason to vote Reform is not because you think they have a chance of winning more than one seat. Rather, the more votes they get on July 4th, the stronger the case for a Right-wing Tory to succeed Rishi Sunak.

Bloody troublemakers the whole lot of them.
Lock them up and throw away the key, that's my advice.

It's very heartening to see that Donegal Peace Group are actively working against the war that Messrs Bush and Blair were pretending was over.
There are some very active peace groups still slogging away, Besides Donegal, I know of Fairview, Cork, Limerick, Tralee, Galway, Derry, Belfast, the Catholic Workers, Pax Christi - and The Irish Anti-war Movement meets regularly. I'm sure there are others. There are also several individuals who keep up the pressure. Can someone publish the names of those I haven't mentioned.
One advantage the present anti-war campaign has got is an outlet in Indymedia, bypassing the mainstream media if they don't want to know.
Also emails that bring us together at the press of a button.
Of course the people who have put their freedom on the line beginning with Eoin Dubsky, Mary Kelly, Deirdre Clancy, Nuin Dunlop, Karen Fallon, Damien Moran, Ciaron O'Reilly, Fintan Lane, Jenny Hannon, Martin McGowan and a host of others are those who keep inspiring the movement.
Great work.
