In the wake of the U.S.'s "pre-emptive" destruction of Iraq, her people, and her culture, the Trade Regulation Organization is issuing a "55 most wanted" playing-card deck (http://gatt.org/regime/) similar to the one that the Pentagon issued two weeks ago in Iraq (http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Apr2003/pipc10042003.html). ... read full story / add a comment

Around 20 people winded their way through the damp city streets of Belfast to convene on the grounds of City Hall & engage in the wondrous act of conversation. The occasion for such a revolutionary event? - A ‘Public Speak Out Against War’*. The event was organised by individuals involved in ‘Our Kitchen’+ as an opportunity for people to get together & share their ideas & feelings about war & explore ways in which we can take action against war. Food Not Bombs provided scrummy biscuits & sandwiches. ... read full story / add a comment

(IMC editor: article by Kevin is added below as comment) Here are a few extra details from the cycle. The woman who drove into the back of the cyclist was brazenly aggressive and from the big smirk on her face seemed to be enjoying herself. She kept on trying to drive off even after the motorbike cop came over to take details. After he asked some of the cyclists to move off the road, she again tried to drive off forcing him to admonish her sternly. At this, the cyclists gave a big cheer. The wheel in question was very badly buckled which was a real pity as the owner had a really nice track bike with a single-speed hub. At the very least, it will require a wheel-build and a new rim to repair it. As seen ... read full story / add a comment

The US military has announced that at least three children aged from 13 to 15 are being held in the detention camp, Guantnamo Bay. Like other prisoners being held at the camp, they are being held indefinately without trial and are being interrogated by the military. They have been in captivity for over a year. Human Rights Watch have sent a letter to Donald Rumsfeld urging the United States to strictly observe international children's rights standards regarding the detainees. ... read full story / add a comment

I have in front of me a document issued by the National Bus and Rail Union. It’s one page long and makes one of the most impassioned, informed attacks on the ‘privatisation’ mantra at the heart of this governments approach to public needs. I didn’t get mailed it, read it in a newspaper – it was handed to me as a single A4 page that someone picked up on a bus. ... read full story / add a comment

Nine of the ten anti-war activists arrested during the mass trespass at Shannon airport on 12 October 2002 will be up in court in Tulla District Court again on Wednesday. Most pleaded not guilty at their last appearance and the case was consequently postponed. It is expected that they will receive their sentences on Wednesday. The nine were arrested following the successful pulling down of the fence and a 100-strong mass trespass on airport grounds following an anti-war rally at the airport. Five of those up in court are from the rebel city of Cork. All hail the Peoples Republic of Cork!! ... read full story / add a comment

The defense secretary has denied reports that the United States is considering an arrangement to have permanent access to some bases in Iraq. Long, dangerous and difficult work remains in both Iraq and Afghanistan, Rumsfeld said told reporters aboard his plane, which stopped in Ireland to refuel. The flight was delayed several hours as workers fixed brake pads on the landing gear which broke during the landing. "One ought not to think of this as a victory tour," Rumsfeld said, noting that coalition forces in both Iraq and Afghanistan still are coming under sporadic attacks. "The task before us in Iraq will take a lot of focused attention over a period of time." Rumsfeld said that in Afghanistan he will discuss with Afghan leaders and U.S. military officials a formal declaration that major combat is over. He would not say whether a similar declaration for Iraq is imminent. ... read full story / add a comment

The media is an arm of Government - and nothing illustrates the point more than the act of the Kerryman newspaper in its issue of 18th April last when it featured a front page story on how Provo TD Martin Ferris was aware of an alleged threat against a mother by a gang of drug dealers from Limerick. ... read full story / add a comment

La comunitat resident musulmana continua les gestions per aconseguir un nou local que els fidels puguin fer servir com a mesquita. Després que el Govern els hagi respost negativament a la demanda per a l’ espai, perquè, segons el president del Centre Cultural Islàmic, Mohamed Raguig, “ ens han dit que no tenen cap local ni cap terreny disponible” , l’ entitat va anunciar ahir que sol·licitarà la col·laboració del copríncep episcopal, Joan Martí Alanis, perquè “ com a màxima autoritat al Principat” intercedeixi davant l’ executiu. La comunitat musulmana utilitza actualment com a mesquita un local ubicat a la planta baixa d’ un edifici de la carretera d’ Engolasters, a Escaldes. ... read full story / add a comment |
