Slowly the M88 armoured recovery vehicle of the United States Marine Corps moved into position underneath the nose of Sadam. Instantly surrounded and mounted by the media and the people of Baghdad, they were all waiting for Iraq’s Berlin wall moment in history. ... read full story / add a comment

Watched BBC news yesterday evening in the Front Page Bar after a hard two days monitoring the activities of the ‘leadership’ of the ‘Irish Anti War Movement’ and their extensive co-operation with some of the more ‘hardened elements’ in the PSNI. I saw a tricolour being raised on Iraqi Soil. I saw Bush patting Bertie on the back. I didn’t see him offer Bush a pint of the Black Stuff in return. More’s the pity. I felt sick and wished that Bertie was in front of me so I could vomit on him. ... read full story / add a comment

national / miscellaneous Wednesday April 09, 2003 - 15:43 by Global Women's Strike Galway
Women from the South of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England picketed Mill St Garda Station again this Wednesday in Galway. Women called on the Gardai and the army to refuse to do the work of protecting warplanes at Shannon or of arresting and harassing people for civil disobedience, when there are war criminals going unpunished in the White House, 10 Downing St and the Dail. Joining the pots and pans protest held in Barcelona every night, along with the one led by Women Oppose War outside the Dail today and so many by women in Argentina and Venezuela in recent times for their very survival, we made an enormous noise with our pots and pans, whistles, chanting and singing. ... read full story / add a comment

I'm watching BBC News24 here which is transmitting live from the square outside the Palestine hotel. An Iraqi crowd are trying to pull down a huge statue of Saddam. Meanwhile a western anti-war protester (british?) has actually confronted the marines there. After an argument with a marine he was pulled back into a Humvee by other men from his units. ... read full story / add a comment

TRANSCRIPT (audio available at source): The Red Cross has confirmed that at one of Baghdad's biggest hospitals there's no power or water, and that surgeons and other medical staff are now working extraordinary hours. There are even reports of the injured lying in hospital wards in the dark, and of dogs eating the dead and injured on the streets of Baghdad. Roland Huguenin Benjamin is a spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross. From Baghdad he's been telling Jo Mazzocchi about these disturbing images. ... read full story / add a comment |
