Powell adverted to a "fine paper" during his show and tell before the Security Council. This "fine paper" was supposed to be the British proof and evidence that Iraq was in violation of Security Council resolutions. Ah, you thought to yourselves, thank God for MI5 and Echelon and all the spying they do on us and on foreigners, the massive intelligence apparatus has gained something. Think again! Blair's spin-doctor, a Private Secretary and some interns plagiarised a 12-year old thesis published by an Iraqi in an American university. read full story / add a comment

Today on Radio Free Eireann, NYC, Dan Berrigan recalled his many visits to Ireland, especially his visits to the hunger striker families. Irish neurtality had been betrayed to the U.S. warlords said Berrigan. He said that the actions of Mary Kelly and the Ploughshare 5, in symbolically removing the machinery of death were acts of justice and compassion. He said it was a great victory that the war planes had been removed. Keep the heat on the warlords said Berrigan. He said that on Saturday, if he is at large, he will march with the Irish contingent in the NYC demo. behind the banner, We serve neither Mobil nor Bush, echoing Connolly, in whose murder the Irish Independent played a despicable role, as they do today in attacking peace activists. read full story / add a comment

The Center for Public Integrity reports on details of leaked legislation in preparation which will continue the erosion of the traditional system of checks and balances that is supposed to be built into the American governmental system. Specifically the separation and balancing of the powers of the Executive and the Judiciary are supposed to make sure that the neither can do too much damage. This new, proposed legislation furthers the weakening of the Judiciary surrendering some of their powers to the Executive. read full story / add a comment

Feminists in Amerika have acheived a right to legal abortion in 1973 ( Roe van Wade) but George Bush aims at eliminating access to reproductive health care. Thats why pro choice organisations are very worried about what a second term Bush would mean to all thats been won since 1916. read full story / add a comment

Here in Colombia, the Green Berets are pursuing one of Bush's most important, and perilous, foreign policy initiatives. With all the talk about Iraq and North Korea, Washington has done its utmost best to keep Colombia quiet. Risks include losing North American lives in a conflict that does not have the same so-called ''popular support'' as the mystery hunt for al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. Washington has a big stake in Colombia... read full story / add a comment

While we have been repeatedly told what a great financial boon to the Irish economy and the Shannon region in particular there is from allowing US war business there, it now turns out that the total take for all warplanes in 2002 was a measly 9 million euro. Just enough to buy one of the eight new turbo propellor training aircraft for the Air Corps. In total Minister Smith on January 16 2003 gave 60 million of our euro to a consortium of mainly Swiss Bankers for something we don't need while chldren need proper schools and the sick need proper and prompt care . He even spent 6 million on improving the runway for the arrival of his new toys! read full story / add a comment
