August 9 1971 was a pivotal date in Irish history. The introduction of internment exposed, yet again, the ugly face of British imperialism in Ireland and acted as a catalyst for increased resistance to the occupation. The introduction of 42-day detention is a similar travesty of justice, foisted upon an unwilling population by a British government that is determined to repress dissent. read full story / add a comment

Lorna Siggins in the Irish Times reports that Bord Pleanála has asked for extensive further information from Shell about their plan to install a production pipeline linking the offshore Corrib gas field with the refinery they are trying to build nine kilometres inland. Many people fear that the planning procedure will be a simple "rubber stamp" exercise, since the original planning decision that the project was unsuitable for the area was overturned by the planning board on appeal. Since then, Shell has been supported at every step by all arms of the government, despite the fact that the project clearly lacks local consent. read full story / add a comment

Lawyer for British resident held captive at Guantánamo Bay writes to Taoiseach Brian Cowen for information on transit through Shannon Airport of planes and personnel involved in the kidnap and torture. On 22 July 2002, CIA crew landed in Shannon on the well-known rendition jet, N379P, having – the previous day – rendered Binyam from Pakistan to Morocco where he faced 18 months of torture. On January 16 2004 CIA crew, this time in N313P, stopped in Shannon en route to rendering Binyam Mohamed from Rabat to the notorious ‘Dark Prison’ in Kabul. The crew then went on to render another man, German citizen Khaled el Masri before returning to Washington on 28 January 2004. (Eventually released because the US admitted he was wrong guy.) http://www.reprieve.org.uk/documents/2008_07_28Irishpre...2.pdf read full story / add a comment
