For all of Sharons talk there now appears to be an Israeli shoot-to-kill policy against peace-activists in addition to their shameful record of shooting Palestinian civilians as evidenced by the shooting in the head of two peace activists in the past week. A British peace activist was shot in the head yesterday as he tried to help a Palestinian woman and her children flee Israeli gunfire. Last week, Brian Avery, 24, another activist from New Mexico, was shot in the face by Israeli soldiers in Jenin. The Israelis refuse to comment on the "investigations" into these attempted murders as well as that of Rachel Corrie, no doubt in the hope of "managing" the release of the reports at an opportune time for Israel. read full story / add a comment

Over the last dozen years I made 13 trips to Baghdad to lobby the government to keep CNN's Baghdad bureau open and to arrange interviews with Iraqi leaders.

Speaking on Radio Free Eireann, NYC, Eamonn McCann said that, largely due to the influence of corporate Irish America, Sinn Fein had now veered to the right. Sinn Fein's new allies will dictate how far they can go, and the rank and file are now paying the price for the alliances the Sinn Fein leadership has made he said. On the same programme, Tommy McKearney said that Adams meeting Bush, the leader of the imperialist order, violated every principle that republicans had suffered for. He said that the Provisional leadership will now opportunistically coalesce with Fianna Fail if given the chance, but he stressed that Irish republicanism was broader and bigger than the provisional faction and that the real task now, that armed struggle was not an option, was to create something new and radical. read full story / add a comment
