The Scots Dragoons used depleted uranium shells today in their rout of Iraqi tanks, destroying 14 of them as well as much of their own genetics, and generations of Iraqi kids who'll run around these areas in years to come wondering why they're covered in lesions that don't hurt. This is one of the most overlooked and horrendous aspects of this war. People have suggested that the US may use battle field nuclear weapons, but they waged a low level nuclear war the first time round, and now they're at it again, well its the UK in this particular instance. But is it better than sending it to Sellafield, any NIMBYs out there who want to field this one?? http://breaking.examiner.ie/2003/03/27/story93335.html read full story / add a comment

The 3 animals that murdered Garda Jerry McCabe while robbing a post office in Co. Limerick will not be released. Anyone that believes in justice in Ireland will be happy at this news. Of course, I expect the usual crowd of brain-dead Sinn Fein/Indymedia types to be angry at this. It'll make for such funny reading. read full story / add a comment

After reading about the good work of FEIC in Derry, I thought I'd put down some of the corporate links between the US War Machine and US VP Dick Cheney's company Halliburton Brown & Root - including those in Ireland...ignore if this is not "news" to you, but i think some of it will come as a surprise to many read full story / add a comment

500 tons = 500,000kg assuming 333g of food or other material per person this would barely feed the people of Basra for one day. The aid by sea is a farce, the US/K forces are shipping huge quantities of food and material to their troops every day by road from Kuwait. Given the 150,000 troops they are probably moving in tens of thousands of food and war material per day! The 500 tons of aid is a pittance and a joke and is pure propaganda! Why don't they ship material in by road if they are serious about relief! I suggest they are not and this is a ruse to starve the Iraqis out on the quiet while depicting themselves as saviours and availing of photo opportunities along the way. read full story / add a comment

In recent times there have been many racist and inflammatory statements about refugees and asylum seekers, much of it coming from Fianna Fail, but also from some of the other establishment parties. Now that the war on Iraq is creating more and more refugees these pro-war deputies should be asked if they will welcome these refugees into Ireland read full story / add a comment

Democracy is under threat in the United States; anyone who objects to the conflict in Iraq is not allowed to say so I can personally testify to this as I was told by many friends in the US while visiting recently that they are against the war and attend marches etc. but feel unable to speak out in the workplace etc. for fear of a backlash from war-mongers read full story / add a comment
