There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says
British doctors working in Gaza have described the territory as a ?slaughterhouse,? where the patients they are treating are severely malnourished.
Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.
Dr. Tom Potokar, a plastic surgeon specializing in burn injuries, has worked in Gaza 16 times but said this mission had revealed a level of destruction far greater than his last visit in 2023,
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.

So, let me get this straight. The UDA is a proscribed organisation and the English queen will be meeting them at the invitation of the Irish president Mary McAleese. Surely that raises constitutional issues? for both governments.
hER2self is meeting members of an illegal organization [UDA] and is refusing to meet some of her long-time propagandists.
Kevin Myarse is very upset at being snubbed. Also on the "keep away" list are Eoghan Harrass and Ruth Didley Edwards.
Link to Sunday "Independent" article
Ill winds and silver linings.
So the flunkies polished their tiaras for nowt.
Check out the photo that accompanies that article. A remote operated .50 calibre machine gun is to be deployed. What exactly are they expecting I wonder?
part of yer ol' normalisation of militarism program to prepare us for the permanent lockdown in the pipeline. Contingency planning. The people are the contingency they could do without. If only they could import labour for the growth cycle, and deport us(as they have been able in previous generations) for those nasty downturns, as they can foreign cheap labour(note the collapse of Schengen, even as the old imperial powers create fresh refugees with their shiny new campaigns like Libya). I reckon they're keeping Lizzy and Obama sweet so the emigrant door retains paddy's traditional privelege(we're conveniently white and anglified for their taste).
Half the purpose of these visits is to draw us out of the woodwork for ID purposes. Its the early warning scan. They know they can scare most of the people because they wont subject their families to the shit that comes with opposition to diktat. Largely its going to be a matter of battening hatches and waiting for it to become obvious to a critical mass. We're a long way from that point yet, and if they prod enough into a wrong move and we prove incapable of policing and restraining ourselves, like good proles should, we'll have NATO boots on the ground(doubt they'd be thick enough to deploy brits direct)even before we're paid up members; which shouldn't be too long now that FG are in the saddle for the foreseeable. Think nineteen fifties poverty lapping at the gated wealth of the unfillable. Globalised economic apartheid, its the norm in the US for a long time. It can only intensify as the looters pursue their financial growth-god the turnip proves bloodless.
Thats why I'd advocate the demand be for democracy, rather than handing them a convenient red rag to wave at the gullible and scare-able. thats how the Egyptians wrong-footed the usual suspects, They like to bomb from the safe moral high ground of that particular brand themselves. Witness Libya as the rag-bag rebels challenge gadafi's 'dictatorship'. Dictators are only kosher if their OURS. Like those nice Saudis. Theres them royals again.
I knew something good would come out of this. Myers is sickened and all is well with the world.
Three reasons why he wasn't chosen:
1. He's about as Irish as Barack Obama
2. He's got a plummier accent than the queen
3. He's the only person who can compete with prince phillip in comments that are puerille, mysoginistic, racist,
insensitive, unresearched and staggeringly stupid. So suck it up, Kevin. It's a measure of how significant you really are.
any updates on attempted occupation of garden by eirigi today?????
If anyone has any decent sources of what is happening in the streets - twitter feeds, blog updates, live webcams, it would be great if you could post them up for people who cant be there, but are 100% behind any protests against Elizabeth Windsor arriving into the country.

Sounds from the reports on politics.ie that it fizzled out fairly quickly. That is a real shame.
I hope that future marches, e.g. on Wednesday, meet up a good away from where they want to go, to get people's energy and enthusiasm up.
Meeting at Thomas St to march to Dame Street doesnt give the crowd any chance to get fired up.
People need to think about the psychology of marches, the feeling of unity with your fellow protestors, the collective sense of campaigning against a visible enemy against your cause.
Having a march that has a duration of ten minutes / 1000 metres is pretty pointless and demoralising, if you are going to walk into a wall of cops.
But a march of an hour, singing songs, letting off flares... that gets people excited, adrenalised...
I'm sure people will eventually put up more information. Don't rely on p.ie for info, it is controlled by Fine Gael types and many of the comments are just total abuse and disinformation.
I agree with anti-monarchist that people should think about how protests are organised-the elderly, disabled, people with kids should be safe from attack on protest marches-in greece and italy they take it seriously young lads that are better able to take the batons wear full protected gear and helmets and protect marchers from state violence -the heavy state security on these demos is bound to scare a lot of people off
dont make me laugh
I was sneakin round the back last night and guess who I bumped into, bored out of her skull and takin a break from all the tinsel, glass of pomp in one hand and a pageantry sandwitch under her arm...
gimme a &^&**%£ing break
Opus,
I am NOT blaming you at all, the people that were involved in those crimes know who they are and know their responsibility, but they should be condemned as forthrightly as the british and the loyalists (who I condemn for any crimes they committed).
Thats all I am saying, we cannot condemn the USA and the British and any other nation for crimes unless we can condemn people from our own nation who carried out acts against their own people, killings, bombings executions etc.
That is my point, republican terrorists have as much responsiblity as do others for what happened up there.
And let me state this right now NOT all republicans were terrorists there were and are people on this Island who hold republican ideals and desire a peaceful resolution to our problems.
And again I am NOT a royalist I just cannot see why a foregn head of state cannot visit this country without all the crap that has gone on about it.
To use your trench analogy, you have to come out of your trench to move forward, and if this visit moves us forward then away we go.
No problem. but I resent paying for her security when she's one of the richest leeches on the planet and symbolises a history of militarist conquest and theft, from here to China and back through India, Iraq and the sales of BAe's weapons systems to clients who keep their populations in poverty so she can enjoy her hereditary luxury. not very republican. If it was history I'd bury it, but as she mouths her mealy half-apology in Dublin her government are pursuing identical policies and war-crimes from Iraq to Libya, as are her corporate shareholders.
And no, republican terrorists are not as responsibile as everyone else. The prime reponsibility lay with the London government, and the secondary with Dublin, which neglected its duties to its passport-holding citizens in that corner, for its own cowardly 'peace'. same as we neglect the crimes of NATO&Co for our own comfort.
Actually its not neglect, we actively collaborate in the torture and renditions, and in the logistical support of their armies, due to moral and intellectual cowardice. And that one is ONGOING. Stop chewing the bones of 'toubles', before you resurrect the same boneheaded reaction the securicrats thrive on. Language can be as destructive as bullets, and your aim aint too good. The words of paisley killed many, and poured petrol all over the furnace, repeatedly, but we dont drag him into every regurgitation at every oppertunity. Wounds shouldn't be picked at, certainly not with instruments as blunt as your sloppy generalisations.And especially when lessons have been learned and progress initiated. Or do you think the Stormont of 1965 was democratic? If not, tell me the difference betwen the 'rebels' in Benghazi and the IRA? Selectivity, al??
"the people that were involved in those crimes know who they are and know their responsibility, but they should be condemned as forthrightly as the british and the loyalists (who I condemn for any crimes they committed)."
the colonised should apologise for how they fought back against the coloniser, just as forthrightly as the coloniser should apologise for causing the whole problem by deciding to serve their own interests by colonising.
and the rape victim should be condemned for scratching the face of the rapist just as forthrightly as the rapist is condemned for raping them.
And in al's world, the rape victim should probably apologise first for doing the scratching.
hope they don't let you near any women with that line of twisted logic Al!!
