The IAWM is apparently intent on revamping itself after resignations, expulsions, disaffiliations and growing disillusionment has seriously affected an organisation now no more than a front for the Socialist Workers Party. The meeting has been announced on the IAWM website but has yet to be sent by email to members/affliates. The announcement has not been posted on Indymedia. Members/affiliates have been given 13 days to submit resolutions along with nominations for a steering committee election (a new steering committee is required after the existing one lost half its membership through resignations). 13 days may be enough for SWP/IAWM ghost branches to discuss resolutions/nominations, but is wholly inadequate for genuine/functioning anti-war groups affiliated to the IAWM. The agenda itself is typically weighted in favour of SWP tutorials, with only 1 hour given over to resolutions/election to the steering committee, and 1 hour to discuss a constitution for the IAWM. ... read full story / add a comment

At approximately 10:30 a.m. (MDT) April 9, 2004, Rev. Carl Kabat, OMI, entered missile silo N-8 nine mles west of New Raymer,Colorado, by means of ladders. He destroyed nothing in the process. He was wearing his trademark "clown's outfit," to prove he is still a "fool for God." He was taken into custody by Weld County law enforcement at approximately 11:45 a.m. (MDT). ... read full story / add a comment

The decision of the US military to “suspend” its offensive operation in Fallujah (and possibly elsewhere) constitutes a serious setback for the occupier of Iraq (a military figure in Iraq, Colonel John Colman, has conceded that the US won’t regain Fallujah “any time soon”). ... read full story / add a comment

The below story I just got now. Free market UStriumphalism is one thing- glib hyphocrisy from Russia REALLY makes my blood boil. Today, the Russian foreign minister told the US they were being too hard on Fallujah, despite the fact that his boss has helped reduce Grozny to the equivalent of an apocalyptic shell from a Mad Max movie, not to mention mass graves,etc. Sickening. I for one am against what the US is doing in Fallujah, but glin hyhopcrisy takes the biscuit. The Russian admin seems to think everyone has forgotten aboyut Checnya. Have we? Read the story, and wonder why we all seemed to have forgotten the tragedy that is Checnya. ... read full story / add a comment

For the last few years the European Patent Office (EPO) has, contrary to the letter and spirit of the existing law, granted more than 30000 patents on rules of organisation and calculation claimed in terms of general-purpose computing equipment, called "programs for computers" in the law of 1973 and "computer-implemented inventions" in EPO Newspeak since 2000. Europe's patent movement is pressing to legitimate this practise by writing a new law. ... read full story / add a comment

The acquisition by the Labour Party in Sligo of former Blueshirt, Jimmy McGarry, has sundered the party in the constituency. So fraught are things in the Sligo-North Leitrim constituency that party leader, Pat Rabbitte, was literally abandoned by former deputy and party standard-bearer in Sligo, Cllr Declan Bree, on a recent tour of the constituency. ... read full story / add a comment

The Amalgamated Transport and General Workers Union (ATGWU) have a motion down for next Tuesday night's Dublin Council of Trade Unions (DCTU) General Delegates Meeting calling on them to have their traditional May Day March, or to at least support the alternative May Day March organised by the Another Europe Is Possible (AEIP) mobilising by having their banner on the march and informing their members of it, in other words to reverse their outrageous decision to cancel their traditional annual May Day March. I think that it's really important to get as many sympathetic delegates as possible along on Tuesday night and that we should all speak out loudly and forcibly in favour of the ATGWU motion. I'm calling on anyone reading this who knows someone involved with the DCTU or Trade Unions generally to strongly encourage them to attend, and to participate in Tuesday night's meeting. ... read full story / add a comment
