There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says

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.

Despite three record years of coral growth, the mainstream media keeps pushing doom and gloom on the Great Barrier Reef ? a story that doesn't quite add up, says the Daily Sceptic's Environment Editor.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7Good to hear this ridiculous round of court appearances for spurious charges is over. How many bogus arrests without prosecution are we up to now I wonder?
People may be interested to know that one of the artists involved in the student exhibition that is currently running in the terminal building had her sculpture moved from a prominent place to somewhere out of view behind the lift shaft because someone complained that the life-size sculpture of a man looked like a soldier in army fatigues. The artist Breege Cameron refutes this saying it's a concept piece about knowledge, health and the environment. Mad, people don't seem to complain much about the real soldiers hanging out in duty free and the departures lounge! The coincidence of course is that the sculpture was moved just last week.
It still amazes me, even though I should be used to it by now, that despite all that is now known about rendition flights from and between European countries, the vast numbers of horrific deaths in Iraq and of course the goings on at Guantanamo that some people still insist on trying to convince us that American investment is worth more than the dignity and lives of people. The following quote from a Tipperary Senator was including in the Editorial section of the Limerick Leader newspaper this week.
Wordlywise
"In a liberal democracy, governments face challenges to their authority, many of them extra-parliamentary and spilling over from protest into direct action, which have to be countered with firmness. One example is ongoing agitation over the use of Shannon by US military aircraft ... The US is our largest export market, the main source of inward investment, still one of our most valuable tourist markets, an important contributor to the peace process and home to many Irish citizens, documented and undocumented. The Government is right to rebuff the fanaticism that thinks it right to attack US planes on the ground and, if necessary, close down Shannon. No alternative government, once in office, would act differently. "
--Tipperary Senator Martin Mansergh
Similarly this week there was support for the American system of kidnap, torture and illegal detainment at Guantanamo from one of the reviewers of "The Road to Guantanamo" on RTE's The View this week with Brenda Power saying "What were they to do? Sit them down across the table and try the good cop, bad cop routine on them..." Sean Love from Amnesty Ireland was on the show also. Watch it here: http://www.rte.ie/tv/theview/
Council of Europe Report
Finally, the Council of Europe report on illegal detentions and rendition flights came out this week. This report is mainly a pulling together of information sent from individual European governments but among the four main point made on the very first page by the Council of Europe Secretary General Terry Davis is that:
"mere assurances by foreign States that their agents comply with international and national law are not enough. Formal guarantees and enforcement mechanisms need to be set out in agreements and national law in order to protect ECHR rights."
Are there the same famed assurances we keep hearing Michael McDowell and Berite on about. On just a cursory glance at the Irish submission for this report (available on the same website) I saw a section headed "US Assurances to Ireland".
The report shows the number of complaints (3) made and investigated(2) in Ireland and the decision by the DPP not to pursue prosecutions. One wonders though how much investigation was actually done since the government insists on taking "assurances" as fact rather than have the State investigate. And surely there have been more than three complaints made.
The Irish report and Council of Europe report are here:

On the subject of peace workers, another cowardly, criminal, murder - this Tom Fox:
"We mourn the loss of Tom Fox, who combined a lightness of spirit, a firm opposition to all oppression, and the recognition of God in everyone."
Christian Peacemaker Teams had been working in Iraq since October 2002, investigating allegations that U.S. and Iraqi forces abused Iraqi detainees. Its teams host human rights conferences in conflict zones, promoting peaceful solutions.
Excellent court report, even better news! I love the stuff about the mobile phone. Well done Conor et al! A great action and the right outcome.
And well done to all involved. Great news to hear.
Keep up the good work Cos. Si.

Great to see these honourable people given back there dignity. Disgracefull how the so-called law in this country hounded these peacefull protestors for literally years. But this is what we have come to expect in this country with similar outrages involving the Rossport 5 etc. while gansters stalk the streets with impunity!!
