offsite link ?It?s Time to Scrap the Asylum System? Fri Feb 21, 2025 17:17 | Will Jones
It's been exasperating to watch as, in defiance of the wishes of Western electorates, the cultural make-up of our countries is radically transformed. It's time to scrap the asylum system, says Lionel Shriver.

Germany's 'firewall' against the AfD is set to saddle voters with the same pro-migration Leftoid Government they're desperate to get rid of. When will the Right realise the Left has them over a barrel, asks Eugyppius.

Sometimes Trump's mercantilist thinking is so radical as to be wildly, crazily brilliant, as with the Gaza Riviera plan. But on Ukraine it's letting him ? and the West ? down, says Ian Rons.

According to a new political science article highlighted in the Guardian, "Misinformation and radical-Right populism must henceforth be understood as inextricable". Apparently, everyone else always only tells the truth.

Imperial Hotel Eyre Square Galway 8 PM Thurs 20th Aug

Recently kidnapped along with 1976, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Mairead Maguire and 19 other human rights activists in Mediterranean international waters whilst attempting to break the brutal Israeli siege of Gaza and bring desperately needed humanitarian aid to the people, Derek Graham, Ships Coordinator of the Gaza Free Movement and his wife Jenny will be giving eye witness testimony on the Israeli manufactured hell that is Gaza http://freegaza.org/

Recently returned from Gaza as an UNWRA delegate (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East), Pennsylvania woman, Susan Johnson, visiting Ireland will also be presenting harrowing eye witness testimony : My trip to Gaza was traumatic, I thought I was prepared for it, but wasn't. To describe the destruction properly I would need a new vocabulary. As one person told us, there aren't words for what they are going through. The effects of the siege are equally devastating. I hadn't realized how awful it is for Gaza ... The impact of my trip to Gaza is difficult to explain or describe. The situation there is beyond words. Gaza has left me traumatized, energized, exhausted and passionate ... When I found myself at home after the Gaza trip, I realized "myself" was gone and wouldn't be returning. It was beyond a life changing experience. I have a passion for the West Bank, Gaza and Palestinian Refugees I never thought possible.
