From the Newswire: An original first-hand report of a solidarity vigil that took place on Saturday 1st in Drimnagh to commemorate the deaths of two Polish men who were attacked and killed the previous Saturday.

It has been noted that this is just one of the most recent and most tragic examples of anti-Polish racism. Other commentators have pointed out such aggression is often directed towards anyone who is different and that it's not just nationality or difference in race that motivates such violence. All agree that such aggression should not be tolerated.

"On an eight day intercultural, fact-finding trip to Palestine," http://www.indymedia.ie/article/86470 and participating in the weekly Bil'in protest last Friday, three IPSC activists in a group of ten Irish concerned citizens who journey up from Jerusalem witnessed the brutal dispersal of the peaceful marchers by the Israeli Occupation Forces through the indiscriminate firing of rubber bullets and physical assault which continued all around us as our group was corralled without rhyme, reason or explanation by the IOF. Even so, thanking the good lord for small mercies, it was small potatoes in comparison to the egregious violence visited on previous Bil'in protests as evidenced in the DVD documentary we saw later. read full story / add a comment
European Commissioner Margot Wallstrom

An analysis of EU Commissioner's Margot Wallstrom's involvement in two parallel but contradictory processes - as head of the Commission's 'Plan D for Dialogue, Deabte & Democracy' allegedly aimed at involving citizens in the defining of Europe's future, which was set up in the aftermath of the 2005 rejection of the EU Constitution in France and Holland - while at the same time she played a little reported but significant role in the Amato Group - a self-selected group of 16 of the EU's top political elite who met to to redraft - behind closed doors, and with funding from a leading European multinational - the rejected Constitution text and effectively re-packaged it as what was to become known as the Lisbon Treaty, a document which every member state in the EU, bar Ireland, is being denied a popular say on. Commissioner Wallstrom was in Dublin last Thursday to speak at the National Forum on Europe.

In the run up to the referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, there is much that is unsaid as regards our electoral history and the behaviour of the EU towards its honest politicians. This article sets out to give voice to those Europen politicains that have been ignored by Irish media and provides perspective on the proposed referendum. Suggestions for future referendums and laws are proposed that would serve the common good. read full story / add a comment

Thousands of young brides go haywire trying to buy a wedding gown in the bargain
basement of a huge Department store. It's a blood sport where the winners are
those that can squeeze their figures into a knock-down Vera Wang or some such

To the people of the world! To trade unions, student unions, women’s rights organisations!
3 Labour activists were flogged in Sanandaj and 8 others are to be flogged for taking part in a May Day rally! The Islamic Republic has taken another step against the working class and all the people in Iran. Their aim is to silence, crush and dehumanize. Its what the slave driver did 20 centuries ago. This time, however, they are dealing with a working class that has no intention of submitting; a working class whose struggles and leaders are known to the whole world.

·Official figures say, in the past 10 months,1 million women have been arrested, fined and/or flogged for not being dressed as demanded by the Islamic government and for courtship with the opposite sex; read full story / add a comment

It does what it says on the tin.
A simplistic plot.
A damsel in distress must be rescued by a hero against impossible odds.
A black and white vision of good and evil.

BUT WHAT EVIL!

Like no other movie I have ever seen, perhaps Schindler's List, this movie demonstrates the evil of ethnic cleansing, tyranny and injustice that the West would like to pretend does not exist.

Nobody can see this movie and not be changed, outraged and forced to do something for the people of Burma and other peoples oppressed through out the world. read full story / add a comment

Founding IRSP member Jim Daly argues in his presentation at the RSYM Winter School that Green and Orange are incompatible, and that the traditional failure of Republican leaderships left and right to recognize this is part of the reason for the present debacle. Jim argues that only Republican socialist leaders such as Connolly and Costello were free of the illusion of their compatibility. read full story / add a comment
