THERE IS a very simple reason why Arabs and Jews have been unable to live in peace together for the past 100 years, and it is summed up in the phrase "the Iron Wall". The Iron Wall is the title of Professor Avi Shlaim's exhaustive and brilliant history of Zionism. Jabotinsky, a right wing Zionist leader and fan of the Italian fascist Mussolini, coined the phrase in the 1920s. ... read full story / add a comment

On Easter Monday, Nollaig delivered this speech in Mineola, NY - a hotbed of rightist oriented folks. That didn't stop him though, he rips into the US government's insane war policy. As a US anti-war activist, it was great to hear him address a group of reactionaries, telling them what they didn't want to hear! ... read full story / add a comment

We in Dublin got advance warning on the SOA/CIA/IMF (7) coup which has just taken place in Venezuela from Greg Palast during his recent public lecture in NCAD. He had spoken to Chavez just before the lecture and he was saying to Palast at the time that he wouldn’t last a month. Well he lasted a little longer. But just a little. Just long enough for the peaking of the Israel/Palestine conflict to provide something to occupy and divert the attention of the World’s press while a cynical anti-democratic coup to took place with minimal and mindbendingly uncritical reporting on the part of the World’s mainstream media. ... read full story / add a comment

On Thursday April 11th, An Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern visited Limerick to open the new sports Arena Complex at the University of Limerick. He was meeting and greeting the usual suspects and putting on his pre-election smile for the camera. What the camera did not show was the fact that THREE SEPARATE PROTESTS were going on within yards of the stage. Handlers were overheard telling RTE to use close up shots of the podium and not to show the banners and gagged students. ... read full story / add a comment

The use of sniffer dogs has been introduced into the jail. Sniffer dogs, controlled by prisons officers that make up the 'search team' are now being used to assess visitors.
