The incident happened opposite the Cukoo’s Nest Pub and all traffic was stopped both ways as the horse reared up on his back legs with fright. He was wide-eyed and not wearing blinkers. He was hit repeatedly with straps or reins by the driver. read full story / add a comment

The Freedom Flotilla to Gaza, which includes 11 Irish people, expects to arrive at it's destination within 48 hours despite Israel's vow to block the mission from delivering much needed aid to the beleaguered coastal strip. A forum of seven senior Israeli ministers who met on Wednesday 26th May have decided that the Israeli Navy will enforce a twenty mile exclusion zone around Gaza and will arrest all 800 crew and passengers taking part in the Freedom Flotilla should they pursue their mission to break the ongoing siege of Gaza. read full story / add a comment

Yesterday morning, as is their wont, Israeli Occupation Forces intruded into the village of Bilin, this time there were only three to the forefront with backup behind them, when challenged they beat a retreat. Yesterday afternoon, villagers rushed to quench a fire in an olive tree sited close to the Apartheid-Annexation Wall which had to be deliberately set on fire by the retreating IOF, but which was unable to be saved due to the fire being set in a crevice in the trunk which smouldered throughout the day and it was only in the latter stages that the tell-tale smoke was detected. read full story / add a comment

Despite the election of NoyNoy Aquino III to succeed the corrupt, brutal Arroyo, 43 healthcare workers continue to suffer military torture in the Philippines. Five detainees--Valentino Paulino, Cherrylyn Tawagon, Ellen Carandang, Jennylyn Pizarro, and John Mark Barrientos--remain confined to miitary dungeons, while 38 were transferred to Bicutan Camp Bagong Diwa, notorious for the massacre of Moro suspects. Carandang's children were taken from their home by the military, while the rest are subjected to daily torture, harassments of family and relatives, threats, and other horrors. We appeal to the international community with a conscience to demand the release of these innocent civilians. read full story / add a comment

A day out of the ordinary- The Dublin Anarchist Bookfair! This May sees the return of the annual Anarchist Bookfair to Dublin, our fifth Bookfair to take place in the city to date. Starting from humble beginnings in the St. Nicholas of Myra Hall in The Liberties five years ago, last years Bookfair was arguably the most successful to date. Over one thousand people passed through Liberty Hall during the day with ten different meetings and workshops held discussing a wide range of topics ranging from Palestine to Left Unity, Iran to Shell to Sea, Social Centres and beyond. read full story / add a comment

Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Politics, by Jonathan Shockley, provides an in-depth analysis of the role of money in politics. Can a society whose political system functions in accordance with the self-serving strategies of big business call itself democratic? Is limited, programmed public participation occurring every few years worthy of such an esteemed categorization? “Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Politics” provides startling answers to these questions–reinforced by an increasingly bleak political climate–and makes a case for social organization free from tyrannical institutions of any variety. read full story / add a comment
