offsite link Losing to Win Thu Feb 13, 2025 14:00 | Dr James Allan
Sometimes politicians have to lose to win so the other side can show its true colours. Trump is the standout example, says Prof James Allan. Had he won in 2020, we would not have had the blitz of the last four weeks.

offsite link Don?t Blame Gen Z Thu Feb 13, 2025 09:00 | Joanna Gray
Joanna Gray says the Gen Zer she was mentoring had an epiphany: "It?s not us who suck; it?s you Gen Xers. No wonder you lot went along with all that trans BS, you'd all lost your bottle." Terrifyingly, he was right.

Greens get very worried about the risk of nuclear accidents. But have they considered that the economic devastation of Net Zero will cause far more deaths than were ever suffered by Ukraine after Chernobyl, asks Ben Pile.

Bringing the love...

Bertie was asked to come out to share the love, but he was just nowhere to be seen.
LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgendered) Rights activists are desperate indeed. Two months ago they held their first public event highlighting the demand for legislation on recognising Gay Marriage. Why on earth would someone want to get married, some may ask. But it's not simply about a ring on a finger, a chance to wear some fine frocks and outlandish hats but about equality.' We want the right to be miserable like straight people' quipped one participant. But marriage isn't just an institution which many reading Indymedia.ie may oppose but it's about enshrining rights.

Masked Poets Seem to be unstoppable in Shannon Warport


wags and activists may be unseen and silent in modern ireland
but na filid gather crowds to hear their message even in 2008 Shannon


“O come all ye travellers & give ear to what I say:
Where do you go and why, upon this St Bridget’s Day?
… Let me carry my tale
To the horrors that lie here,
Here, here, behind the veil.
How many planes
Full of captives in chains?
Where will they go?
To the cages of Guantánamo?
Will government try
To discover where and why?
… What would Bridget have said, had it entered her head
That this would be the destiny of the land where she lies dead?”

A short report describing the harassment experienced by protestors while displaying an anti-war banner at Shannon airport. The report highlights the fact that the Gardaí are either unaware of the law or do not practice it. This contrasts strongly with the claims by the government that gardaí are upholding civil and human rights at Shannon while at the same time facilitating the transport of US military supplies and CIA planes that are used for the transportation of torture victims.

A small group of Shell to Sea activists scaled the heights of the Department of Natural Resources today, to place a banner reading PROTECT IRISH NATURAL RESOURCES on the balcony outside Eamon Ryan's office.

Splitting into two small teams, the protesters used advice from GreenPeace to distract the security and gain access to the Minister's top floor office and leave a message for him.
