Last Wednesday, a small group of anti-war activists took to the streets of Galway to lay bare, as it were, the psychopathology of the war criminals in the White House. With the sabre being rattled in the face of Iran at the moment, the envisaged plan to attack China and "regionalize" it still viable and the military option against Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba, Syria and North Korea alive and well on the drawing boards of the Pentagon, we were not indulging in gratuitous bogey man theatrics, be afraid, be very afraid. read full story / add a comment

The recent government announcement 5 million euro for the integration programme in 2006. This is not enough, and in any event the funding should be coming through all government departments and should include an educational element to educate people to the genetic facts. It is necessary that the government put a cultural integration scheme in place immediately, to do otherwise is to invite ghettoisation and promote the conditions which strengthen racist ideas. read full story / add a comment

Veronica McDermott is a rep for BNFL in Ireland and has had an article in the Sunday Business Post (10/12/06) and been heavily quoted in an article in the Sunday Independent (08/01/06) both of which promote nuclear power as a real option and both of which only refer to her as a public affairs consultant. this along with David McWilliams article a few weeks ago shows that there is a pro-nuclear agenda being pushed in our papers preparing the nuclear industry to pounce when energy becomes a major issue. read full story / add a comment

In violation of its agreements with the IAEA the Iranian government has removed seals from its nuclear facilities and has begun uranium processing. The response of the international community led by the US and UK poodle with the support of effeminate France (the CIA staged Paris riots have convinced them of the need to clamp down on Muslims) and Russia (Chechens freedom fighters supported by Iran)is to refer the issue to the UN Security Council in preparation for a new Iran War read full story / add a comment

At 3:30 pm, Two Hours of Speaker's Square began in Temple Bar Square, Dublin City. Three regular speakers and one by-stander held forth on various issues, and interjections from many (of the up to 20 audience), were numerous. Speaker's Square or Cearnóg na gCainteoirí is an occasional experiment which was revived in April 2004, and its aim, apart from to engage in stimulating realtime discussion, is to reclaim our public space from its commercial surrounds; and to fill it with ideas and opinions that one are not likely to find in the mainstream media. read full story / add a comment

British anti-War politics has taken an interesting turn over the change of Year. The leader of the largest "anti-War" party has resigned his position after being exposed as a soaked up rickety wreck alcoholic. Meanwhile the umbrella of interests in British politics which work through the "Impeach Blair" or "Stop the War" coalition have called upon a retired general to voice their concerns, and the former extreme left candidate Gorgeous George Galloway has decided to go to Big Brother. read full story / add a comment

The anti war movement in Ireland in all its forms has to provide a critique of all the growing signs of Militarization in Ireland. While the US Military use of Shannon is the pinacle of this, there are other signs out there that the Irish State is moving into the hands of NATO. read full story / add a comment |
