The United States are governed by Opus Dei members who seized power in a coup d’etat. Cheney is involved with Haliburton, Kellog, Root and Brown (9) who intend to build the M3 double troll road through the high valley (known in Ireland as the Gabhra Valley) and this will make big money for the Irish leg of Opus Dei who also own a big slice of this same valley. read full story / add a comment

The red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) is indiginous to europe its a hibernating, rodent creature that lives in trees, collects nuts, carries rabies and TB, and hibernates.
The Grey squirrel (Sciurus griseus) is indiginous to North America and was imported in the 19th century by english landowners to prettify their newly acquired scottish estates.
The Grey squirrel is pretty much the same as the Red squirrel, but its hibernation period is shorter.
thus when it wakes up hungry in january its fine little nose can hunt out the stores of nuts that its nieghbouring red squirrels have stashed. The result is famine for the red squirrels who have progressively died out since the introduction of the Grey to Britain (and thanks to the channel tunnel Europe). read full story / add a comment
