What consistencies, common elements and patterns are identifiable in the following events: the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the attack on the USS Liberty and 9/11? Although time, geographic location and historical context separate these events they nevertheless share remarkably similar aims, objectives and characteristics. All these orchestrated events provided an excuse for the USA to engage in what would have otherwise been blatantly illegal warfare. The Tonkin incident ‘justified’ American miliary aggression against Vietnam; the USS Liberty incident would have provided an ideal excuse for U.S. involvement in the six-day war; the 9/11 attack has been utilised as the primary justification for America’s military expansionism and the implementation of draconian laws on the home front. read full story / add a comment

Try to overcome your revulsion/boredom/indifference or whatever it is that so many of you apparently well-meaining activists and Indymedia readers do when it comes to this issue, judging from the the general level of interest that these reports usually get. Five thousand comments on the disctinction between the SP and the SWP, about four on rights for people with disability. Pardon my bluffness but how about cutting us all some slack in this corner, eh? Maybe even give us some of your time and effort? read full story / add a comment

Given that tens of thousands of Irish people were shipped into slavery, isnt it strange that Ireland has no day remembering them? I dont know of a single monument to the victims of slavery in Ireland. Perhaps someone can let me know if they know of one. As far as I know, even the Republican Movement fails to commemorate the tens of thousands of innocents sold into slavery from Ireland. Many of the women and children into sex slavery.

Vincent Browne's strange affliction with trying to find jusitifications for the likes of Charles Haughey and Bertie Ahern seems now to have infected recently appointed columnist Chekov Feeney - also a member of the Indymedia.ie editorial collective. Feeney's Newspaper Watch column has, while throwing a welcome spotlight on many examples of media bias and seeming self-censorship -and is apparently unique in Ireland in its objective - sometimes failed to deliver truly well aimed punches at obviously deserving targets. read full story / add a comment

Check out www.bioneers.org. They are having their annual conference 20-22 Oct in california and the programme is on their website. They also broadcast by satellite to other communities, so far in the US, i think. Their aims are to 'unite nature culture and spirit in an earth-honouring vision'. great connections and earth-sustaining visions and practical solutions abound. read full story / add a comment
