Below is a statement from the Iraq Freedom Congress in which they condemn US aggression towards Iran. Militarization and the use of force is a key element in the US administration ideology to impose its hegemony on the world.

The US administration justified its inhuman policy with the pretext which is "possession of weapons of mass destruction". read full story / add a comment ![]()

Two Government Departments mandated with taking care of the well-being of our kids have been shown to display two-tier policy which favours the wealthy and ghettoises the poor. No surprises there except that both are run by experienced and rather limited women politicians; Mary Hanafin and Mary Harney.
