I thnk the last picture is the best. It brings the class issues to the fore. Blair has plenty of cash for war, but not the firefighters. Ahern will let US army off paying landing tax, but will penalise people for not paying bin tax, and will reintroduce fees.

I disagree with labelling USA as fascists. Swastica shouldn't be use like that. The problem with the USA is not the people of america, it's their capitalist governemnt. Putting up pictures depicting USA and Bush as nazis is wrong and irresponsible, and may even alientate many americans

It is important for all to realise that any imminent war can be delayed with the actions of the weapons inspectors in Iraq Whether or not they belong to the trigger happy American 'War Machine' or not can be debated, but ultimatly their decision is indifferent to the reality of 'Oil Politics' and the BUSH/BLAIR Alliance.

How can it be wrong to label George Bush and the present US admisistration as Nazis except that it may be an insult to some moderate Nazis who might have a conscience?

That's a brilliant slogan although not original.
Such slogans containing a swastika instead of an S in USA are common even in the United States among people who see the US government as an oppressor of workers and minorities.

The present US administration is a crypto fascist agency of the oil companies and other military and corporate interests . A great deal of Mr Bushes support comes from "Neo-conservatives" as they are know. Groups like Pat Roberts Christian Zionists and other whackey right wing groups are also solidy behind Bush because of their fanatical Christian apocolyptical beliefs. This is the political reality in bible belt America.


Very good sign!

Hey comentator, I live in America and if I can let you in on a little secret, this country or atleast its leadership and just over 50% of the voting public is increasingly comfortable with what one might call the early stages of fascism. No need to softpedal, tell it like it is, that's the best way! The harsher the opinions of America are outside of America, the more likely that these opinions will be a force in what eventually happens. Don't let up. It is good to see my Irish people stand up for rights and justice. Too many of us Irish here are sold out on America and White priviledge. The Irish should be a voice of justice in the modern world. Check Joe Bageants' article at Counterpunch which is actually editated by Irish expatriate and political hard hitter Alexander Cockburn. http://www.counterpunch.org/bageant01082005.html
