Have local authorities lost the plot and surcome to the the greed of the building industry by allowing apartments spring up all over the country. When we were told apatments or in lay mans terms FLATS were a thing of the past, why have the authorities allowed the construction of such apartents when the history of Ballymun has show us that in a social context such forms of construction will cause problems in the future. Do local authorities need to look at their proceedures in the allocation of housing to people who want a roof but say to hell with everything else? read full story / add a comment

She was a young mother of an eight year old boy.
She was black.
She ran a food market in the city centre.
The report of an attack and kids leaving the scene of her attack was called in at 4.37am.

Communities need to make the kids own to what they have done to the woman and
her family.
This is the second such violent attack on a car which was occupied.
Two children were severely burnt in the Moyross area recently.
Their family home has been attacked recently.

Social exclusion has reached a new level of low in this instance. read full story / add a comment

On More 4 last night I watched a stupendous masterpiece of filmmaking.
"Death of a President" a faux documentary is about the future assassination of President George W. Bush in Chicago on Oct 18, 2007 and the human and political fall out his shooting.
Told in flash back with archive footage and interviews with a Bush's speechwriter, the dead of the Secret Service Death, the chief FBI investigator into the assassination, a forensic expert, witnesses and many others it has the appearance of a real documentary.

In the july-war on Lebanon, as well as Israel as Hizbollah have committed serious human rights viollations and warcrimes against as well the Lebanese civilian population as the Israeli civilian population.
Despite the ''justifications'' by both parties, they are both subjective to International Humanitarian Law, which forbids, under all circumstances, military attacks on civilians

In the first of what will hopefully become a fortnightly anarchist reading group, we have decided to look at three short texts exploring the relationship between activism and theory. A discussion of the interaction between radical theory and movement practice seems like a rather obvious starting point to kickstart an anarchist reading group. All of the chosen articles are available free online and are short and snappy. The longest is a transcription of a round table discussion that flits and darts in conversational style over areas our own discussion might cover. read full story / add a comment

Republican sources living in Ballymena believe IMC listed attacks wrongly attributed to dissident groups and wrongly categorized as military activity.

Ballymena Residents attribute some attacks to maverick Sinn Fein elements and loyalist/Unionist disharmony.
