The video of Margaret Hassan really appalls me. This woman should be released immediately. How utterly shameful that this woman, an Irish citizen, too, should be humiliated like this. Yet again, Indymedia Ireland is silent on this embarrassment to their fellow travellers' unjust cause. Just check out Liverpool Indymedia's churlish silence on Ken Bigley. Where are the Senator Mary Henry's and the Naomi Klein's appealing for her life? She must be released immediately. Freedom must prevail. ... read full story / add a comment

"The Battle of Venezuela" by Michael McCaughan. Reviewer amazed to discover own writing, word for word sometimes, and in some cases in slightly paraphrased sentences, with no reference whatsoever to the original article & no credits that this written by anyone other than Michael McCaughan. ... read full story / add a comment

Given the current escalation of Israeli depredations in Gaza and the daily US bombings of Falluja, it is interesting to examine Amnesty International's (AI) statements on the situation. AI is widely viewed as an authority on human rights issues, and thus it is of interest to analyze its output on these recent events. Careful scrutiny of AI's record reveals that, its typical response to the daily obscene deeds by either Israeli or US armies is a few barely audible ruminations with an occasional lame rebuke. The impotence of these responses raises many questions. ... read full story / add a comment

Short selection of letters from named servicemen written to Michael Moore. Published in his new book. Interesting to read these letters from actual soldiers. Be worth a read from some of the faux-military pro-war crowd. ... read full story / add a comment

Stanislav Petrov (born c. 1939) is a retired Russian Army colonel who, on September 26, 1983, averted a potential nuclear war by refusing to accept that missiles had been launched against the USSR by the United States, despite the indication given by his computerised early warning systems. The Soviet computer reports were later shown to have been in error, and Petrov is credited with preventing Thermonuclear World War and the devastation of much of the Earth by nuclear weapons. Because of military secrecy and political and international differences, Petrov's actions were kept secret until 1998, and most of the world has not heard of this man who saved the lives of millions. ... read full story / add a comment
