The impact of the monocultivation of Soya has had a disastrous impact on the majority of the population of Paraguay, a significant proportion of whom live below the poverty line. As Soya farmers move in, small farmers have been violently displaced from their land or forced to abandon it as the agrochemicals used to cultivate Soya destroy their crops and have serious implications on their health. Those who have stayed on the land and resist, face repression and death threats. But where else can they go? What else can they do? read full story / add a comment

It appears there will be room on the anti-scientology bandwagon for people in Ireland on February 10th. An article in today's "Guardian" reports how the business founded by pathological liar & science fiction writer L.Ron Hubbard has succeeded in pressuring Youtube into pulling a critical vid but can't stop the hacker attacks on its website & the sweetest thing of all - it's "google bomb" profile. Meaning you type "dangerous cult" into Google, & the Church of Scientology website pops up. Of course many of you might not know who the Scientologists are. Simple. They belong to a dangerous cult. Some of them are very famous; Tom Cruise, John Travolta and the person who does Bart Simpson's voice. Others are really poor & just get scammed all their lives into buying Dianetics, Self-Help, being audited, being cut off from their family & all in the hope of re-assembling their intergalactic soul particles in time to escape the evil Xenu (emperor of the universe). read full story / add a comment

Meeting: Thursday 7 February 1pm in room C214, Arts Block , UCD, Belfield, Dublin 4. Speaker: Torab Saleth. Torab Saleh leading Iranian socialist, political activist and founding member of ‘Hands off the People of Iran’ (HOPI) will speak on the nature of the Iranian regime, the relationship with the United States and the real reasons for going to war. The recent stand-off in the Strait of Hormuz shows that tensions still run high between the United States and Iran. The threat of war has definitely not gone away. In fact war in the form of sanctions has intensified. But it is not the Ahmadinejad government that is suffering. Sanctions hit the poorest and the most vulnerable, never the elite. The people of Iran are suffering, not their rulers. read full story / add a comment

These are hard times for the Basque Country. We know that we will resist as we owe this to our children. We are ready. 50 years of modern struggle. We resisted Franco as well as all Spanish governments from left to right. They all got bog down with the Basque Country and it will continue until the French and Spanish authorities recognise the reality and the rights of our country. We are calling on international solidarity to mobilise (International Solidarity Week with the Basque Country, February 18-24), to denounce the denial of political and social rights, so that our country can build democratically a sovereign, proud and socialist society. read full story / add a comment

The audience in Holy Trinity Heritage Centre, Carlingford, yesterday contributed to immensely to a finely wrought performance by Ensemble Avalon. There was no attention deficit and no disconcerting applause at the end of individual movements. Applause was reserved for the end of each of the four sonatas performed. In a very symmetrical program each of the sonatas had three movements. There was no rocking in the aisles but the applause was appreciative and there was a general air of satisfaction around the Heritge Centre as the performance progressed. The cost of a ticket for this concert was €15. read full story / add a comment ![]()
