international / animal rights / opinion/analysis Monday December 01, 2008 23:13 by Bernie Wright
The mystery of why some people choose to be blatently cruel instead of engaging in some positive activity remains somewhat unsolved. We do know however, that animal cruelty in childhood is often associated with other signs of poor control over aggressive impulses and with parental deprivation. More importantly we are also aware that cruelty to animals is often the precursor to cruelty to other humans. Those who delight in the suffering and destruction of gentle creatures will obviously not be gentle and kind towards their own species. Whether legal or illegal, cruelty is cruelty. read full story / add a comment

national / housing / news report Friday November 28, 2008 14:40 by Paul Bowman
The official story is that the origins of the current crisis lie in the collapse of the US subprime mortgage market - i.e. poor people not paying their mortgages. Although this may have been the trigger event, it is not the real cause. The real cause lies in pyramids not houses. Specifically the enormous debt pyramid built up by the Western countries, particularly those following the Anglo-saxon economic model - which, unfortunately for us, includes Ireland. read full story / add a comment

Big Business doesn’t like what’s happening in South America. The election of reforming governments in Peru and Ecuador might have been a bearable irritant but that Chavez guy in Venezuela has really got up their noses. In Bolivia sections of the local ruling class got so riled up that they tried to overthrow President Morales in September. The US ruling class, in collusion with local bosses, is trying to destabilise political and economic reforms. As they see it, too much is going to workers and peasants, and not enough into their own coffers. read full story / add a comment
clare / politics / elections / news report Friday November 28, 2008 12:04 by Fine Girl
Pat Breen, Fine Gael TD from Bunratty, showed that he's been listening to the lies about natural resources, and he believes them, when he spoke about Corrib in the Dáil. The sad thing is that his acceptance of the nonsense peddled by Shell and the Green Party means that instead of an opposition testing and challenging the government we have a docile and pointless group of placemen waiting for a chance to get into government simply to get a few things for their constituents and jobs for their friends. read full story / add a comment

There has been much in the news lately about shoppers taking their money (or credit, more likely) up north, despite government appeals to "patriotism"... a word that should always set the alarm bells ringing off their mountings. read full story / add a comment |
