The prosecution of a man for burning the Qur'an shows how Islamic blasphemy codes are becoming embedded in criminal law. Coming up with a legal definition of 'Islamophobia' will accelerate this process, says Sam Bidwell.

Solar farms are an ecological disaster. Birds frequently fly into them, mistaking them for water, while electrocution and incineration are common. But you won't hear about this in the mainstream media, says Chris Morrison.

You know, democracy, freedom of choice and all that? Aren't the Americans in charge now? Surely they can protect a single pub?
do you mean they're not really in charge? no that can't be true, I saw it on television.
You're not suggesting that there are still some fundamentalists in Afghanistan? But they're all in Guantanamo bay, even the children, aren't they?
Every single one? Even the Christians? The atheists?
Do you really want sharia imposed on everyone in Afghanistan? Because I find theocracy disgusting.
Would you put a brothel in the Vatican City? I doubt it very much. But wait, what is that I hear you say prostitution is illegal. Well to the Afghanis alcohol is illegal! You people are just so caught up in your foolish love of alcohol that your senses have been permanently lost assuming that they were to be found in the first place. Did we 'liberate' Afghanistan only so that we could force upon them the worst elements of western culture?
With no respect for minorities within those countries. And you condone terrorist threats to enforce this, to stamp out anything which doesn't fit in with the culture of the majority.
I've got your number all right.
amidst the poverty and stuff there are 3 Irish bars.
We broadcast from above one of these for one of the 3 BCN pirate stations.
I can not afford to drink in any of these pubs.
during the War we attempted to vox pop the people inside (often Brit weekend bingers).
We were kicked out of two.
I have no idea what these pubs are doing in that area. They are as bad as Mc Donalds, and indeed are found within puking distance of the "MC D".
I hate the Irish pub.
and i'm sure many others do too.
When you've got the Indymedia mindset?
Good! Irish bar indeed. Bunch of drunks in a muslim country. What an image Ireland projects around the world.
It's time Ireland took a long hard look at it's drink problem. Why does Irish social life revolve around the pub so much? Why do we drink so much? Why do we need drink to be able to talk to each other? Why do we deny our drink problem? Why do we drink so much? What are we ashamed of?
Drink is holding this country back and stopping us fulfilling our potential as a nation. We could do so much more without it. I speak as one who enjoys his Guinness. Discuss.
Serves em right. They should have some respect for other people's culture. Not too many Afghanis would be frequenting the bar I'm assuming anyway. There should be no objection to a church in Kabul or other religious freedoms if ya want. But it's another thing setting up an establishment that's only gonna cause troublemakers and a nuisance for those who live there and offend them while their at it. Unusual bit of news. Pointless really.
