HIV Is an Immigration Rather Than a Health Issue. Why Can?t Starmer Admit This? Mon Dec 09, 2024 13:00 | Nick Rendell
Keir Starmer's pledge to end new HIV cases by 2030 glosses over a crucial truth: it is immigration, not just health, that is driving up HIV infections in the UK, says Nick Rendell.

Of course one soldier is not going to blame another soldier, but the fact remains the Israeli state purports to be a democracy, and legitimate, but it acts like terrorists.The ice cream selllers you mention were Lebanese Maronite Christian militia men, sponsored by Israel. You are right about the PLO, but Israeli actions against civilians and oiur boys in Lebanon far outweighs anything carried out by PLO militias.
It was/is a good shot - you've got the eye alright. Many thanks for your support, it was/is much appreciated.
The Palestinians were not exactly the best of buddies with "our boys" In the Lebanon either. The Israeli army did not have a monopoly on Murder.
"Our Boys" bear no ill will to the Israeli army,who are just soldiers,conscripts mostly. They do However have a problem with the Murderers of irish soldiers escaping Justice and fleeing to sell ice cream in Chicago.
If you and your lot arrived at the war show that day, you would have gotten a very unpolite response from the members of the Irish Defence Force that were assembled there.Your friends in the Isreali Assault Forces have murdered plenty of our bhoys when our lads were peacekeeping in the Lebanon.
You are the supporters of a bunch of cowars, fascists, murderers and cutthroats, the IAF and the Maronite Christian militias.
Your zionist friends murdered two young Irish privates, in 1982.Mossad watched as the Militias killed our two bhoys.The decent people of Ireland will never forgive or forget what a shower of two faced liars the Israeli army and state is.Your poropaganda is useless, youse have blood on your hands.
Do the decent thing and apologise,or remain stained with the cowardice of a liars tongue.
Never forget the brave men and women of the Irish Defence Forces, shelled by Israel in 1996.
They were bothering no one. I had no problem with the war show, but I'd no problem with the protesters either.The only problem I had was with the Bean Garda telling them to move.Yep, I was there.
She came along she said 'Move!' I said "I'm not a protester!"
"Yer grand, so", says she
"Why are you telling them to move?They're harmless.All they are doing is holding up a few signs."
"Obstruction"
"Obstructing what?"
"That!" she says and point to the great big feck off artillery cannon ya'll can see there in the pictures.
Har!Har!Har! de Har! goes I. She asks me again if I'm with them, and I said no.She says keep out of it.
However the few protesters that were there started just walking in circles, others members of the public started agreeing with me, and the Garda soon got fed up and walked off herself, thus ending her obstruction of the right of peaceful assembly.
The Tommy, the leader of the protesters got me to snap some photos for him with his camera.The lone flag shot is my work of art!
All in all we all had a good day. The protesters got to make their point and were bothered by no one and vice versa.
Hi Tommy! You should have credit where credits due!I know thats your camera but I am an artist, am I not? :0)
"you remind me of the Taliban in Afghanistan where the majority of people especially woman were suppressed for years by a minority evil thugs who denied them freedom."
You'll be happy to hear that womEn are still be suppressed in Afghanistan, only this time with the approval of the countries of those military hardware you were oohhing and aahhing to over the weekend.
I was there with my family and I have to say it was brilliant and I will be there again, you people give me the creeps, its a case of if you dont like it we cant see it.
you remind me of the Taliban in Afghanistan where the majority of people especially woman were suppressed for years by a minority evil thugs who denied them freedom.
If I want to see something I am quite able to make up my own mind, I dont need people like you to tell me what I can and cannot do.
GET A BLODDY LIFE.

A state that rightly remembers the suffering of the Holocaust and then initiates genocide against the palestinians will be boycotted.
When the sanctions have worked and the isreali government's fiscal ineptitude has caused its economy to collapse then we will see the truth.
Isreal cannot survive with out its Palestinian under class, it cannot survive without the hand outs given to it by "friends", it cannot survive by being undemocratic and racist.
Survivors of the holocaust are living in poverty in Isreal, while the Isreali elite look for more charity to maintain their apartheid state.
BoycottI Isreal..You Know It Makes Sense.

IRA / PLO mural on the Falls Rd...good photograph... and this mural was paint bombed by the same British squaddies soldiers who would smash up a Jewish graveyard in Manchester.
"Amnesty International has repeatedly condemned suicide bombings and other attacks against civilians by Palestinian armed groups as crimes against humanity. Using children to carry out or assist in armed attacks of any kind is an abomination. We call on the Palestinian leadership to publicly denounce these practices."
"Palestinian armed groups, including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and al-Aqsa Martyrs's Brigades, must put an immediate end to the use or involvement of any kind of children in armed activity."

Of course we should oppose killing of non-combattants, whether by Palestinians, Israelis,
the Brits, or the US.
Do you really fail to realize that the Israeli government has killed more Palestinian children than Palestinians have killed Israeli children? Of course, the Palestinian government has not been doing the killing on the Palestinian behalf.
The Israeli government has killed more Palestinian women than the Palestinians have killed Israeli women.
Israel is engaged in a brutal occupation of a foreign land, which quite unfortunately impels some of the victims to brutal revenge attacks.
Both the Israeli state and the Palestinian terrorists should be condemned. But with the evil of the Israeli state being far greater, the condemnation of it should also be far greater.
Israel should end the occupation (condemned world-wide as a violation of international law) and negotiate the reparations they owe as a result of their taking of Palestinian land.
The fair thing would be to set the borders of the Israeli and Palestinian states according to the 1947 UN partition plan for the British Mandate of Palestine. However the Palestinians have magnanemously accepted a mere return to the
pre-1967 borders of Israel.

Have you guys read about this "extraordinary rendition" CIA program of the Americans against the nation of italy and her citizen(s) suit?
Thank God Italy has come along and called the kidnapping Americans for waht they are: kidnappers. I hope the world has had its fill of dirty pool in the name of September 11th.

I love living in a democracy.
You have the right of freedom of expression and freedom of assembly.
I have the right - like many tens of thousands of others to-day - to ignore you and to enjoy a cracking afternoon's entertainment which you did not spoil for one moment.
See you there next year.
The Irish Palestine Support Committe are protesting? Why don't they protest against the murder of Jewish women and children by Palestinian terrorists. What an amazing double-think. Hardly surprising from these people given the level of anti-american racism in evidence....
On a more positive side - you LOST the numbers game. 100,000 people didn't give a flying fiddlers about your protest...
