More than 400 small boat migrants have arrived in the first two days of Labour's returns deal with France, making a mockery of claims it would be a "new deterrent".

AI is a distraction from what it means to be truly human, says Dr David Bell. We should aim for far greater things, find again the vastness of the jewelled sky and the light that only shines in another's eye.

When a man in Dublin stabs a police officer while shouting "Allahu Akbar" you can be pretty sure it's not the work of an indigenous Irishman. So why are the media at pains to pretend it is, asks Andrew Devine.

British TV grows more and more unwatchable with each passing day. That might be because BAFTA is on a mission to transform every TV show into climate propaganda ? and it's just stepped up a gear, says Steven Tucker.

Ploughshares Activists Arrested Carrying Out Citizens Inspection on Board Plane at Prestwick Aiport

category international | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Monday August 07, 2006 12:50author by Ploughshares Support Report this post to the editors

A number of Trident Ploughshares activists were arrested in the early hours of this morning on plane at Prestwick Airport, Scotland.

The nonviolent anti-war group were carrying out a citizens inspection of an aircraft while investigating covert British co-operation in the ongoing Israeli bombing of Lebanon. One of those arrested was twice acquitted Angie Zelter of the "Seeds of Hope" & "Loch Goil" Ploughshares and a founding member of the Trident Ploughshares campaign.

U.S. bomb deliveries to Israel have been recently diverted from Shannon Airport to Prestwick. The Trident Ploughshares campaign of nonviolent direct action at the nuclear submarine base in Faslane, Scotland is presently being explored by Irish anti-war activists as a model for a campaign to demilitarise Shannon Airport.

See link below for a more detailed account of this morning's anti-war action at Prestwick......
