offsite link Thoughts on the Fifth Anniversary of Leaving the European Union Sat Feb 01, 2025 09:00 | Dr David McGrogan
What the Brexit Leave vote, and Boris Johnson?s eventual triumph, seemed to in the end achieve was only the revelation of the extent to which British institutions have been hollowed out and corrupted, says David McGrogan.

offsite link The Death of Diversity Kitsch Fri Jan 31, 2025 18:01 | Dr David McGrogan
Diversity kitsch is all around us. But as the grim fact forcefully confronts us that some immigrants hate their hosts so much they want to murder and rape them, David McGrogan senses that it is at last falling from favour.

Protest against Israeli Occupation

Tomorrow (Tuesday 16th) 6.30pm Westin Hotel, College Green, D2


Each May 15th, Palestinians commemorate al-Naqba, the day of catastrophe. The Nakba marks a period of brutal terror, when 415 Palestinian villages were destroyed and almost one million refugees created as Palestinians were robbed of their land and forced into exile. The same event is celebrated in Israel in April as 'National Independence Day'.

Tomorrow (Tuesday 16th) Irish politicians, overseas diplomats and business representatives are invited to celebrate the occupation with the Israeli Ambassador at 6.30pm at the Westin Hotel (Westmoreland Street, D2).

Come along at 6.30 to show your opposition to Israeli state terrorism and to any Irish politician who supports it. Bring friends, workmates, banners and placards. For more information contact 087 7955013.


Vigil at Israeli Embassy tonight (Monday) 8.30

Short notice, but there is a vigil outside the Isaeli Embassy in Ballsbridge tonight at 8.30pm - also final reminder of anti-war committee meeting tonight in Bowe's (Fleet St.) at 7pm.

It seems a well kept secret. I only found out when I read a book by Amnesty "Ireland and the Arms Trade"
You know those big nasty AH-64 Apache helicopter gunships and the Hellfire anti-tank missiles?
Palestinians are VERY familiar with their use.
Some of the hi-tech components are made in good old "neutral" Ireland.
Our government licences quite a lot of companies to make 'arms components' and 'dual-use technology' for export to countries with very bad human rights records.
Analog Limerick admitted to me that they made stuff for the Israeli military. (before their lawyers try to sue me, they should talk to the guys who manned their stand at the UL science fair and ask how they didn't twig I was recording my conversation with their sales reps).
DDC Ireland, Moog, Montek, Timoney, Raytheon, and loads of other companies are listed in the Amnesty book as providing products for military / police use. Some of these items are components for F-16s, missiles, helicopters, tanks, landmines, you name it.
So if we are going to protest the Israeli establishment, lets call on our own government to stop arming them.
