Robert Drinan SJ, who was elected to the US Congress on an Anti-War ticket has died. Drinan was elected in 1970, after he beat longtime Democratic Rep. Philip J. Philbin. He became the first member of Congress to call for the impeachment of Richard Nixon for what Drinan viewed as the administration's undeclared war against Cambodia. Drinan was forced to step down from Congress due to pressure from the Vatican.

I was quite surprised at the reaction of the Report by Nuala O'Loan on Collusion and the murder of innocent people during the dreadful Troubles in the North of Ireland.

My surprise is like that of the Haughey Repoirt and corruption, it proves that inspite of the fact that we all know, denial takes over.

Some years ago, Nuala O'Loan gave a report on the 1998 Omagh bombing. Her reporr then was thorough and very well investigated. Afterwards, Ronnie Flanagan, the then Chief Constable of the RUC, when he said in public 'I will commit suicide if one single statement of this report is true'. At that time Nuala O'Loan criticised the handling by the RUC before and after the Omagh bombing. Nuala O'Loan had come across serious evidence that the RUC ignored vital information which may have prevented the attack.
Do not forget that the Gardai Special Branch have serious matters to answer on this matter too. read full story / add a comment

The Irish Primary School Principals have press-released asking Parents
of Primary school-children not to contribute cash to the upkeep and building
funds of their schools in September 2007.

This is because they would like the State to meet the exorbitant costs
of mantaining and renovating of schools. Each year we are asked to
contribute money through fund-raising drives, 'voluntary' contributions
and sales (raffles, bread sales, shows) and we do.
