Kilkenny City centre came to a standstill last Saturday afternoon as an Ógra Shinn Féin rally passed proudly through the streets of the City. The rally assembled outside Kilkenny Castle, the Norman home of the Butler's of Ormond. Those present listened intently as the rally, chaired by ÓSF local organiser, Peadar de Bluit, was addressed by Lisburn City Councillor Paul Butler, and Carlow / Kilkenny SF General Election candidate Kathleen Funchion, both of whom spoke about the significance of the Hunger Strike and the legacy left by it and the duty of those left behind to strive for the Ireland for which those 10 young men and indeed many patriots died for during the centuries of occupation by a foreign force. read full story / add a comment

'They knew I was a Catholic: I was an appropriate target' - Almost six weeks after a son of Police Ombudsman Nuala O'Loan was viciously attacked at a north Belfast interface, the young victim speaks to Irish News chief reporter Sharon O'Neill [Note: This story and the others - including a letter from me in the Irish News on July 24 - illustrate the way in which sectarianism, orangeism and unionism are interlinked. The brutal sectarian killing of Michael McIlveen, the vicious attack on Damien O'Loan, the Orange bonfire 'celebration' of the killing of McIlveen and the Orange Order banner remembering a UDA sectarian killer - all of these are part of the carnival of reaction which the state of Northern Ireland was created to promote and to sustain. Susan McKay’s piece shows the relationship between Ian Paisley’s bloody rhetoric and the bloody misdeeds of his followers (followers he, with consummate hypocrisy, will later distance himself from). The state of Northern Ireland is a failed state. It is Britain’s failed state. Tony Blair and George Bush justify massive violence, death, injury, torture and cruelty on peoples in the Middle East. Meanwhile, Northern Irish unionists, the biggest supporters of British violence overseas, inflict it at home also on ‘the enemy within’, who they identify on the basis of their Roman Catholic religion.

Below is a copied/pasted article from the Wayne Madsen Report website. U.S. military intelligence sources have told WMR that the artillery shell shown below being used by an Israel Defense Force member in Lebanon, is a type of dual and multi-use weapon the neocons falsely accused Saddam Hussein of possessing. Although the canister artillery shell is marketed as an anti-land mine fuel-air bomb, its payload can also include the chemicals used in thermobaric bombs, white phosphorous weapons, and chemical weapons. Thermobaric bombs contain polymer-bonded explosives or solid fuel-air explosives in their payloads. Thermobarics use a fuse munition unit (FMU) such as that seen on the nose of the Israeli artillery shell. The shell penetrates buildings, underground shelters, or tunnels, creating such a blast pressure that all the oxygen is sucked out from the spaces and the lungs of anyone who happens to be in proximity. Israel's use of such "vacuum" weapons has been reported from across Lebanon. read full story / add a comment
