Is the Hague court a joke or have we just lost our sense of perspective? The latest indiscriminate slaughter of children and innocent civilians in Lebanon by ‘God’s chosen’ seems not to warrant the attention of the Hague court. Carla Del Ponte’s latest remonstration against the Serbian leadership for not delivering war criminals to her court seems ‘slightly’ dissociative in view of recent events. Her obsession with Serbs now borders on the pathological. Would the civilian death toll in Iraq warrant her attention? Iraq now approaches one hundred thousand innocent civilian deaths – eighty percent directly attributable to the forces of occupation! read full story / add a comment

On the 30th of July over 2 million people closed down the centre of Mexico City. Their demand: A fair vote by vote recount of July 2nd's Presidential Elections which they believe have been stolen by the governing PAN (National Action Party). Since then protestors have remained camping on the motorways and on the streets amidst the skyscrapers. The International Media have remained very quiet on the issues.

Harold's Cross has been lacking a post-office since the post-master died of a heart attack (RIP), whilst at the other end of the ward,
a one-stop client shop for political bring and buy was opened
just past La Touche Bridge. The shop looks like a Spar and Bertie was there to cut the ribbon and a bevy of tanned blondes in hats accompanied the opening cermemonies.
Meanwhile pensioners and single mothers have to await the appointment of a new post-master or travel to alternate locations to get the services once provided by the State. read full story / add a comment

"There’s, as you've reported, no sign that the people had plane tickets. It's very difficult to bomb a plane without a plane ticket, no sign that they’d actually made any bombs yet.

Most people are familiar with the popular tales of the half-dead venomous snake that bit the man who saved its life and the scorpion that stung the frog that ferried it (on its back) away from floodwaters that threatened to drown it. Both stories share a similar moral; the beast remains true to its nature regardless of noble, humanitarian, mitigating factors – serpents will always strike and scorpions will always sting, regardless! read full story / add a comment
