In today's UK, Independent on Sunday, Donald Macintyre illuminates the routine brutality, thievery and knavery of the Israeli Occupation Forces in the West Bank city of Hebron, but, thanks to the lord bejaysus, some of them have conscience and regrets and speak out: "In a confessional interview with the Israeli Channel Two investigative programme Uvda, Gigi, who had previously been in many ways a model soldier, talked of "losing the human condition" in Hebron. Asked what he meant, he replied: "To lose the human condition is to become an animal" read full story / add a comment

It is self-evident, both in historical and contemporary times that human beings sometimes resort to violence as a solution to a problem, perceived or otherwise. This stretches from the macro to the micro. The violence of international conflict over a border dispute with civilian collateral damage could be regarded as a severely amplified version of a domestic dispute with a bruised woman outcome. read full story / add a comment ![]()

Yesterday Shell revealed the supposedly new pipeline route. However not much has changed since the Rossport 5 were imprisoned 4 years ago, except that now the Kilcommon community are more determined than ever to say 'no raw gas, refine at sea'! Support them before it's too late. read full story / add a comment

Today we witness the international media reporting on the fighting in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. Few of the journalists have ever served in the military and few of them can understand the overwhelming fear, terror and daily brutality that turns men into merciless killers. In our nice sanitised view of war, soldier kill other soldiers and do not gun down prisoners with their hands up. The intensely savage battle for Fallujah, an American soldier was filmed shooting an apparently unarmed and wounded insurgent. In Haditha, a squad of American soldiers ran amok and cut down men women and children with automatic weapons and grenades. Such behaviour is nothing new in war. read full story / add a comment

The Connolly Youth Movement is appalled by the contents of a leaked email containing a confidential briefing by Daniel Mulhall, Director-General on the EU at the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs to a British diplomat Elizabeth Green. The CYM believes that this clearly shows the attitude of the Irish and EU establishment to the Irish people and the upcoming referendum. The confidential email shows that the Irish government is intent on pushing this Treaty through without the serious debate that the issue warrants. They want to confuse the Irish people, in the hope that by not understanding the ramifications of approving this treaty, they will vote yes. read full story / add a comment
