The anti-Catholic factions within Unionism may bring about the collapse of the GFA. In such a scenario the inevitable outcome may be joint authority. The British Government has already accepted in principal joint sovereignty for Gibraltar. Such a solution could represent an honourable and final compromise for the north's conflicting nationalisms. ... read full story / add a comment

A deal has been struck whereby the US will be immune from prosecution for any war crime for at least a year. The US stance is basically an admission that they carry out war crimes around the world. The claim that there will be "serious consequences" if an US citizen is hauled up before the court just shows what a joke the whole thing is. ... read full story / add a comment

How about mobile surveillance units in working class areas at the weekends. This morning I heard a couple of addicts on the bus saying their friend was complaining about being beaten by police since 'after that dame street thing they won't get away with it anymore'. Two young Dublin women who claimed they were subjected to a vicious, unprovoked attack by two Garda have received an apology and damages in a High Court settlement. Grinne and Ciara Walsh, both dress designers, from Castleknock in Dublin had sued the Garda Commissioner and the State over the incident which happened on Grafton Street in April 1998. In the statement today, the defendants said they regretted what had happened and acknowledged that the Walsh sisters are people of unblemished character. On the occasion in question, the sisters were with a group of friends on Grafton Street in Dublin when a white car reversed towards ... read full story / add a comment

Three photos I took at the Salthill airshow in Galway. The first is of some friends making their way to the airshow with placards, scanner, video camera and big smiley faces! Just after I took this photo a B-1B bomber thundered over us (which we're *to believe* doesn't carry nukes anymore, see http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/usa/bomber/b-1b.htm). ... read full story / add a comment

"...People caught fire, blood was pouring from head wounds and some collapsed under the stress of the heat and teargas. Two vans carrying water cannon made forays up the streets, tear gas canisters continually exploding around them. Medics got trapped whilst helping people, narrow escapes were the order of the day. ... for most of us. But not for Carlo Giuliani. ... A WOMBLE saw the Carabinieri draw his pistol: lying back across the seat, shield in his left arm, legs up; he took steady aim. The WOMBLE ran, then heard the shot. Turning, he saw the police vehicle reverse over the body on the floor, then drive forward over the body..." ... read full story / add a comment |
