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 ![]()

Colombia has the worst human rights record of any country in the western hemisphere. Last year in Colombia: · 184 trade unionists were assassinated, those carrying out these murders enjoying complete impunity from state prosecution; · there was on average 20 political murders a day. Independent observers conclude that right-wing groups are responsible for 80% of these human rights violations; · the government of Álvaro Uribe Vélez declared a State of Internal Unrest four days after becoming president in August, and then in September he decreed that two zones of the country would be under direct military rule, suspending all civil rights. ... read full story / add a comment
