Everybody but the most myopic neo-conservative agrees that the invasion of Iraq has been an utter catastrophy. It seems inevitable that US troops will be withdrawn, if not in the lifetime of the Bush administration, then certainly in the lifetime of the next US administration either Democrat or Republican, when a realist will certainly occupy the White House with the mandate of a US public who have awoken from the hysteria after 9/11 which brought to them to war in the first place. But only a fool would believe Iraq will be peaceful after the US withdraw. Indeed it seems obvious that Shia and Sunnis will slaughter with impunity once the ineffectual US referee is removed from the boxing ring.That is why the UN must send peacekeeping troops to the region to prevent this catastrophe from occuring. read full story / add a comment

We are to lose a cancer hospital which will be amalgamated with St James, the high property values allowed Minster Mc Dowell's Sidekick to sign the lands to speculators. There is a clinic in that hospital complex used by the parents of kids with CF and asthma called Lukedoc/Dubdoc- one TD from the area put down the question re losing our clinic published below is the reply from Mary Harney. read full story / add a comment

The Irish department of Foreign Affairs has instructed our South African ambassador to go to Harare and make known Our State's displeasure at the arresting, beating up and murder of MDC activists and opposition. It would be a fine day if they did the same with the US ambassador, but thats a whole other story, not to mention the one year long attempt by the EU to elicit response from Dermot on Rendition. We do not have an ambassador to Zimbabwe. The twist is this. : http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2007/03/365913.html and this:- http://www.newzimbabwe.com/pages/sadc9.16165.html and Tony Blair is rubbing up to the issue too: http://news.independent.co.uk/world/africa/article2383905 read full story / add a comment |
