I have sent the following letter to the various leaders involved with the Peace Process in Northern Ireland. I am asking for an explaination, why the people of Ulster are being forced into allowing known terrorists, to help govern the country that they have tried to destroy for thirty years. As yet I have not received a reply from any of them. Is the question to difficult to answer or maybe there isn't one. read full story / add a comment

Historic movies about ireland seem to always make it big on the big screen but at what costs? Whose authorisation is required ? What about the famine? The mass grave where 5000 poor of the district were buried near my house is also a story to tell! Why can't a fim maker make a movie about the great famine? So that Irish Americans can see what their forefathers lived through before emigrating to the USA. This is a story that needs to be told! From the fact that the people were to starve, food supplies they needed withdrawn from them, workhouses, emigration aboard coffun ships etc. The world needs to know!!! read full story / add a comment

This is an important but disturbing video from Portland which shows the way the cops film people in the crowd at demonstrations and go out of their way to zoom in on particular features so as to identify people who are just exercising their democratic rights. They also go out of their way to instruct their camera crews to follow and film anyone who is masked up or covering their face in any way. read full story / add a comment

Did I hear that word again (communist)? The comment/accusation was directed at the Timorese Prime Minister Alkatiri during an Oz ‘newscast’ – certainly puts an interesting slant on the Timor situation! I was reminded of the emerging independence of the Congo and the short life of its charismatic leader, Patrice Lumumba. The intervention of the CIA and the subsequent assassination of Patrice were entirely ‘coincidental’ events! read full story / add a comment

international / anti-war / imperialism / other press Saturday May 27, 2006 10:55 by JIM DEE Daily Ireland USA correspondent
Have you ever been so impressed by a documentary that you’ve recommended it to others? Retired US army colonel Ann Wright did just that on Monday – and was promptly handcuffed for engaging in “seditious” activity. Wright’s trouble began when she set out to attend the court martial of a soldier accused in the Abu Ghraib prison abused scandal. The 29-year army veteran arrived at Fort McNair in Washington, DC, only to learn that the court martial was being held at Fort Meade in Maryland. As she was leaving for Fort Meade, she happened upon some anti-war friends at the Fort McNair’s gate who had some postcards advertising a film called “Yes Sir, No Sir!”, which is about American soldiers’ resistance to the Vietnam War. She’d seen the movie and was very impressed, and she felt others in the military might benefit from catching it during its limited engagement in Washington this week. read full story / add a comment

Last weekend a story broke in the UK, of how a Home office official had offered a speedy asylum process to a Zimbabwean rape victim (18) in return for sex. Many Irish people might have missed this, being concentrated as they were on asylum seekers in St. Patrick's cathedral, and since then Mc dowell's legal disaster which puts our children at risk and has blown the lid on the judicial treatment of underage sex and the questionable sentances handed down. The UK story makes an interesting "compare & contrast". read full story / add a comment
