Powell adverted to a "fine paper" during his show and tell before the Security Council. This "fine paper" was supposed to be the British proof and evidence that Iraq was in violation of Security Council resolutions. Ah, you thought to yourselves, thank God for MI5 and Echelon and all the spying they do on us and on foreigners, the massive intelligence apparatus has gained something. Think again!

He said that on Saturday, if he is at large, he will march with the Irish contingent in the NYC demo. behind the banner, We serve neither Mobil nor Bush, echoing Connolly, in whose murder the Irish Independent played a despicable role, as they do today in attacking peace activists. ... read full story / add a comment

Specifically the separation and balancing of the powers of the Executive and the Judiciary are supposed to make sure that the neither can do too much damage.

While we have been repeatedly told what a great financial boon to the Irish economy and the Shannon region in particular there is from allowing US war business there, it now turns out that the total take for all warplanes in 2002 was a measly 9 million euro. Just enough to buy one of the eight new turbo propellor training aircraft for the Air Corps. In total Minister Smith on January 16 2003 gave 60 million of our euro to a consortium of mainly Swiss Bankers for something we don't need while chldren need proper schools and the sick need proper and prompt care . He even spent 6 million on improving the runway for the arrival of his new toys! ... read full story / add a comment
