Trump hosts former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda Al-Jolani to the White House Tue Nov 11, 2025 22:01 | imc
Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.
And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.
In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Sat Nov 01, 2025 00:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.
Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.
In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.
Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

Top Scientists Confirm Covid Shots Cause Heart Attacks in Children Sun Oct 05, 2025 21:31 | imc
A comprehensive study by leading pediatric scientists has confirmed that the devastating surge in heart failure among children is caused by Covid mRNA shots.
The peer-reviewed study, published in the prestigious journal Med, was conducted by scientists at the University of Hong Kong.
The team, led by Dr. Hing Wai Tsang, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, the University of Hong Kong, uncovered evidence to confirm that Natural Killer (NK) cell activation by Covid mRNA injections causes the pathogenesis of acute myocarditis.
Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that restricts the body?s ability to pump blood.

Labour?s Chaos Comes From Left-Wing Logic Fri Jan 16, 2026 17:53 | Joanna Gray
From catastrophic energy policies to migrant hotels and the Chagos giveaway, it might seem that Labour's policies are pure chaos. But beneath them all is Left-wing logic built on faulty premises, says Joanna Gray.

Has Britain Shifted to the Right? Fri Jan 16, 2026 11:00 | Noah Carl
Britain's Rightward shift is overstated. Going from 5 seats at the last election to leading in the polls is an impressive feat from Nigel Farage?s Party, but the Left in Britain hasn?t gone away.

Southeast Asia Continues Hurtling Down the Net Zero Suicide Track Fri Jan 16, 2026 09:00 | Tilak Doshi
Net Zero may be on life support in the US and Europe, but Southeast Asia doesn't appear to have got the note. Not, at least, if a new paper from the National University of Singapore is any indication, says Dr Tilak Doshi.

Great to see you lads getting out there showing Shell that they can’t bully the ordinary people of Ireland.
You don’t need a degree in physics or any knowledge about pipeline engineering to know for sure that he shell pipeline is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode and kill hundreds of the ordinary people of Ireland.
Dr. Dave Aldridge, and there a man who knows what he is talking about (despite what the scientific community might say) has done a study into this matter which proves that the pipeline is guaranteed to explode inside 19 years and the explosion will be the biggest non nuclear explosion the world has every seen. It will incinerate everyone within two miles.
Hope there are more numbers at the next protests as we have to keep the numbers up and keep public support by telling them exactly what this pipeline will do.
No matter how many times you re-photograph the same people, you can't get round the fact that there are only about 10 people there. The rather attractive lady appears in 3 of the photos and the somewhat less attractive man in the cap appears in 4 of them. One group photo showing all the protestors would have been enough. Since there were so few of them, they'd easily have fitted into one photo. A waste of film, if you ask me.
Who did ask you as a matter of interest?!?!
Krossie, John gets paid by a PR firm for making disparaging comments whenever the Shell the Sea campaign is mentioned here. If you look back through Indymedia archives he appears in the comments section of every news story, always deriding the campaign.
The way to shut him up is ask him why Shell can't position a rig offshore and do their stuff at sea, so safeguarding the people of Erris from accidental death.
I didn't count the protesters last Thursday, but there were plenty of people there who aren't in these pictures.
The photographer who took these shots was only there at the beginning, from about 12-12.15PM, so you don't see very many SWP people there for instance, because they arrived at about 12.30.
There must have been quite a crowd there by then because the Gardaí asked us to move to the opposite side of the gates of Leinster House, because they reckoned that our presence was blocking the sightlines for drivers turning right onto Kildare Street, so I'd say there were a few more than 10.
Perhaps if other people have other photos of the protest they could post them here, since John is obviously worried that the campaign is losing its momentum...
Typical leftist silliness to assume that anyone who disagrees with them must be on someone's payroll. I certainly neither work for any PR company or for Shell. If you believe otherwise, please supply your proof. Perhaps you work for one of Shell's competitors? The reason Shell don't build their gas processing plant at sea is that it carries a far higher risk to life and limb than building it on land, since it would necessitate thousands of helicopter flights annually, these being by far the most dangerous form of transport around. But, obviously the safety of the workers who'd be working on a gas processing plant built miles out in the Atlantic is of no concern to you. As for your explanation for the paltry attendance, maybe they should have started the protest at 12.30pm to give the SWP members more time to get out of bed.
John, I think Tadhg was giving you more credit than you deserve. He assumed that anyone who spent all their time making such silly, immature comments on Indymedia MUST be getting paid to do it. But apparently you waste your own time free of charge. Oh well, one day you'll grow up I suppose...
You need to check your specs John- the "attractive lady" in three pictures is two different people.
Obviously I was dazzled by the beauty of the lady in two of the photographs. Anyway, it looks like there has been a less than overwhelming response to Tadhg's request for people to post photographs of the assembled throng. Perhaps Tadhg was also dazzled by this lady's beauty and couldn't see how few people were present.
The guy in the cap who John dislikes is Cllr Daithi Doolan of Sinn Fein. You can read releases by Daithi relating to the Rossport Five at these links.

This is a quick snap I took from outside the steps of the French Institute on Kildare Street- I'd say there were about 5,000 people there.
John, sorry to be so slow responding to you, I haven't been keeping an eye on this discussion.
When you say-
"The reason Shell don't build their gas processing plant at sea is that it carries a far higher risk to life and limb than building it on land, since it would necessitate thousands of helicopter flights annually, these being by far the most dangerous form of transport around"
you realise that you're asking us to accept that the people of the community of Rossport should live with a dangerous experimental gas pipeline pumping odourless, unprocessed gas right from the sea bed past their houses, so that the Shell contractors won't have to make helicopter flights?
Don't you think your reasoning is a little bit flawed there?
These folks could teach Americans a lot about protesting. The signs are on topic. Here in the U.S., most signs are stupid -- but they rhyme!! The people are dressed normally. Here, you would think it was Mardi Gras with all the dopey outfits people wear at protests.
There are also a lot of people who bring signs for their pet causes, having nothing to do with the issue under protest.
I love my country, but I hate the way we protest. Nobody takes these fringe loonies seriously. They damage their own cause if anything.
