Pity the poor CIA. What use is a secret service that can't keep a secret? Agents of other secret services should be aware the the loose lips and poor tradecraft of the Americans put the foreigners at risk of arrest and worse. Here's what we mean: read full story / add a comment

Yesterday afternoon, friends and family of Robin Hennessy gathered under an overcast sky in Kanturk graveyard to bid farewell to a stalwart of the anti-war movement and other social justice causes. Above all, we bid farewell to a man remembered for his enormous capacity for love and who was motivated in politics by his deep concern for the well-being of other human beings. read full story / add a comment

A CIA controlled Learjet reg no N71PG was refuelled at dawn this morning at shannon and made a hasty exit within the hour. It had been due two hours earlier, in the hours of darkness as usual. Unlike the two other CIA planes recently refuelled at shannon, Gulfstream N476LC refuelled on 30 Oct 07 and Gulfstream N478GS refuelled on 30 Nov 07, both of which were notorious torture rendition planes, we know very little about N71PG so far. Please carry out some research and try and dig up its CIA history. We should remember that when the now infamous N379P, known as the Guantanamo Express was first seen at shannon and logged on indymedia by Tim Hourigan, we were not even aware of the CIA torture rendition programme. Such murky and gross violations of human rights are by their very nature very difficult to expose. read full story / add a comment

The reality is that Ireland is now firmly in the imperialist camp in world affairs alongside the US/UK. In four crucial areas of foreign policy – Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Palestine – Ireland is fully behind the US/UK in their aggressive behaviour towards the Muslim world. You will search in vain in the Programme for Government for any mention of actual policy – past, present or future – on Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Palestine. But it is a racing certainty that, despite the presence of the Green Party, the new government will continue to support (a) the US/UK wars in Afghanistan and Iraq; (b) the US/UK punishment of Iran for enriching uranium, which is Iran’s right as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT); and (c) the US/UK backing for the Israeli occupation and colonisation of Arab lands. read full story / add a comment

Despite an unforeseen clash with an Irish Anti-War Movement (IAWM) demo on the same day, the meeting attracted around 30 participants and was an interesting and informative event. Deirdre Clancy, a leading anti-war activist, chaired the first part of the meeting. Deirdre became known for her role in an action that disarmed a US war plane in shannon in February 2003. She and four other activists were arrested, imprisoned and later tried on counts of criminal damage that could have meant up to 10 years in prison. But after two collapsed trials the five defendants were finally unanimously acquitted by a jury in 2005. read full story / add a comment

Lieutenant General Dermot Earley the gung-ho ex-Ranger and commander of the Irish military must be licking his lips! The Minister for Foreign Affairs says he expects a Government decision to be made on Tuesday over the deployment of up to four hundred Irish troops in eastern Chad. Dermot Ahern has just returned from a four day visit to Sudan and Chad, during which he met with Government leaders as well as aid workers and local people. If the Government gives its go-ahead for the mission the Dáil will then have to give its approval. A gung-ho military bored with guarding armoured money vans wants to get its hands dirty in a nasty imperialist war in Africa. read full story / add a comment

United States Ambassador to Ireland, Thomas C. Foley, gave a talk defending US foreign policy to a public meeting of the NUIG Law Society Wednesday evening. His thesis was that US foreign policy had not changed during the Bush years, but remained based on promotion of democracy and human rights world-wide, opposition to terrorism and proliferation of nuclear weapons, and stabilizing unstable regions around the world. read full story / add a comment

I went to shannon airport at about 8.15 am this morning. Today was another “quiet” day at shannon. There are more Ryanair flights, but far fewer other civilian flights including Aer Lingus, other long haul tourist or business flights. However, US military and CIA flights are continuing at a high level. read full story / add a comment
