I suppose in ten years time we won't but should be watching the lastest tribunal that exposes Garda corruption, prevarication, intimidation and now down right theft. And not unlike the McBriaty case it is all spun out against a backround tapestry of a war. From the intimidation bully boy tactics shown to anyone around Shannon who actively doesn't support the American use of the deathport to the fact that at last Saturdays peace rally in Cork the Guardi stole the buckets of money raised by, I believe (correct me if I'm wrong), the Cork Peace Alliance. read full story / add a comment

1/27/2003 - OGI: Cairo) France and Russia have been warned they must support the US military invasion and occupation of Iraq if they want acess to Iraqi oilfields in a post-Saddam Hussein Iraq. According to a report in today's Tehran Times, US Senator Richard Lugar, a leading member of the Bush administration and Republican Party chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Russia and France "must be ready to stand shoulder-to-shoulder in any US-led military intervention" if they want a share of Iraqi oil. The paper quoted Lugar as saying that Paris and Moscow oil companies will be deprived of Iraqi oil and have no share in the country's resources if they refuse to join in the US war to oust Hussein. It noted that both the Russian Duma and the French parliament have both expressed opposition to a US military attack on Iraq. This story caan be found at: read full story / add a comment
