Tony Blair ,the UN’s peace envoy to the Middle-East has issued a stern warning on the rise of Islamo–fascism. Speaking at a charity event in New York last Thursday night Mr Blair addressed the danger Iran posed to peaceful countries in the Middle-east and beyond. He told the audience at the $1000 - a -head dinner that the world faces a situation which he compared to the “ rising tide of fascism in the 1920s”. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7052080.stm read full story / add a comment

Neither you nor I are alphabet soup. We are not numbers. Genetics is not new nor really that literal. One of the two men who presented a molecular modeling of DNA/NDA & got a Nobel prize for it back in 1962 has been suspended from his place of work. It is fitting that since he was one of the "beginners" of "genetics", Dr James Watson had better explain to you the utility of his discovery. He has not passed that test in his last 45 years. His latest assertions that intelligence may be compared between "whomever he thinks he speaks for when he says" := "us" and whatever he means by "black" are being pruned out of what we considered civilised ˇ normal now even though Watson in both his science and comments remains so loyal to 45 years ago. And all his public pilloring is happening just before you get to ask him how smart he thinks orientals are. read full story / add a comment

The Stop The War Coalition In Britain has refused to accept the affiliations of Hands Off The People Of Iran and Communist Students. Mark Fischer writes on these developments. The logic of the decision taken on October 12 by the Stop the War Coalition’s officer group to reject the affiliations of Hopi and CS could be pretty drastic.Andrew Murray’s terse email announcing the exclusions made it clear that this is a political decision. He wrote that a “study of statements and articles issued” had convinced the officers that both Hopi and CS are “entirely hostile to the coalition, its policies and its work”. A sub-committee of the STWC leadership, the steering committee, made this decision. It has 11 members, 3 are members of the SWP (Lindsey German, John Rees, Chris Nineham), 2 are members of the Morning Star’s Communist Party of Britain (Andrew Murray and Kate Hudson). This small group runs the STWC on a day-to-day basis and effectively subverts the democracy of the STWC as a whole. read full story / add a comment

Back in February of this year (09-02-2007) I wrote an article in Indymedia about the Ireland, San Mario match and what I though was Ireland’s darkest day, until tonight or is it today going into tonight. Is it possible that Irish soccer could plunge to such a debt where the playing of such, was in itself an insult to the standard required in order for one to play on a pitch as fine as that which is in Croker. The Cyprus match has given us food for thought, not about Staunton but about the FAI itself. read full story / add a comment

I'm sure some have noted the supposed anti terror related arrests over the past day in New Zealand that have swept up a whole list of radical Moari, anarchist, environmental activists. News is still filtering through but some NZ blogs and indymedia have good info. Soliarity actions have begun outside New Zealand embassies & consulates. read full story / add a comment

And it was in the spirit of f**cking with the world bank that this meeting began. read full story / add a comment

A meeting of the Dublin section of Anti-War Ireland will be held in Seomra Spraoi next Saturday. With the occupations ongoing in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine, and the threat of a US attack on Iran, it is essential that the anti-war movement continue to mobilise and to look at ways of resisting these wars of imperialism. AWI is an open democratic group in which all have an equal say. Come along and get involved...or even come along to see whether you want to get involved in the group. All opponents of imperialist war welcome! read full story / add a comment |
