All last night, doctors at a Ramallah hospital fought for the life of Jawaher Abu Rahmah, but, sadly, they fought in vain as they were unable to save her from the toxic effects of tear gas poisoning inhaled at last Friday's peaceful protest against that crime against humanity on the outskirts of Bil'in; the Apartheid-Annexation Wall. read full story / add a comment

We all learn a lot of rules and regualtions and make an effort to abide by the rules. We know that rules are necessary to understand in order to play the game. But often we suspect that the rules are somone else's rules and not really to our advantage. Some people do the honourable thing and just break the rules; others circumvent, subvert, bend, bend, twist, exploit the rules read full story / add a comment

The 12 Days of CRHistmas is a series of Monty Python-inspired videos created by the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign for its Stop Cementing Misery campaign - http://www.ipsc.ie/crhdivest. The videos are designed to create public awareness in Ireland of CRH’s involvement in building the illegal apartheid wall in Palestine. CRH owns a 25% share in Israeli cement company Mashav, which is building both the wall and illegal settlements. Mashav in turn owns Nesher Cement Enterprises Ltd., which is Israel’s sole supplier of cement. read full story / add a comment

Several hundred people took part in "A Spectacle Of Defiance And Hope" in Dublin on the night of Friday 10th December to protest the way the government have cut funding to vital community services. Janice Feighery a co-ordinator at an after school computer program for young people said “Community programmes are being devastated by the cuts. Our work with young people is strangled by lack of funds." The spectacle draws to a close the week of protests against the austerity budget.

Captain Morgan Fischer - standing up for Ryanair passenger safety - forced out

PILOT WHO CROSSED O'LEARY RESIGNS - The Ryanair pilot who said the airline should replace Michael O'Leary, the low-cost airline's chief executive, with a junior flight attendant to save money has quit after being reassigned from southern France to the "Siberia" of a base in Lithuania, says the Financial Times.

Captain Morgan Fischer was one of almost 30 Ryanair pilots working at Marseilles who had to move after the airline announced in October that it was closing the base following a disagreement with French authorities. The pilots were asked to bid for new bases. Most did so and were offered work at bases in Spain, Italy, Portugal and elsewhere, including some a few hours' drive from Marseilles, where many live with their families. read full story / add a comment
Nice to think in the times of wikileaks that an IMC site (Paris) can still get the judgers foaming at their commercial press bits.

Hortefeux the minister of the interior (= to minister of justice or home secretary) has found a new enemy now that Romanians, women in veils & Africans are old hat.

Yep.

Paris indymedia is according to him an anti-police website which facilitates the indentification of serving police officers thus leading to their general ostracisation & probably unpopularity. read full story / add a comment

Julian Assange may be imprisoned but Wikileaks is still operational, still releasing the information that Obama and Clinton do not want us to see. False rape charges have been filed against Assange in Sweden so that he might be extradited to there and then on to the US where he would likely face life imprisonment. More likely death as its very easy to arrange murder inside a federal prison.

Those who have collaborated with the attempts to close down Wikileaks have learned there is a price to pay.

Below is a statement from Wikileaks. This is followed by excerpts from other articles regarding Wikileaks. read full story / add a comment

If incompetent rulers are a pre-requisite for revolution in Ireland, well this most certainly is that time, as we watch the bankruptcy of both finance and Irish leadership dailyunfold. It is somewhat paradoxical for Irish republicans to politically agree with a British proponent of population control such as Huxley but few will deny, these last quotes below, again from Huxley, would be an apt summary of the motivation of a large segment of Irish republicanism. read full story / add a comment
