Immediate popular reaction in Baghdad on Saturday to the loss of the U.S. space shuttle Columbia and its seven-member crew -- including the first Israeli in space -- was that it was God's retribution. "We are happy that it broke up," government employee Abdul Jabbar al-Quraishi said. "God wants to show that his might is greater than the Americans. They have encroached on our country.

Mary Ward, of Ard Comhairle, Republican Sinn Fein, today on Radio Free Eireann, New York, congratulated Mary Kelly on receiving the Mike Flannery Award last night in Queens. Ms Ward called on the Provisionals to relinquish the name Sinn Fein. She said that the Provisionals had entered into mangaging a system devised by Britain and the U.S. in pursuit of their geo-political goals. She said that the Adams faction was about to join the N.I. police, the poacher becoming the gatekeeper, to enforce British rule in Ireland. On the same programme John McDonagh, leader of the Continuity group that honoured Mary Kelly, said that the group would spearhead Irish-American opposition to the war against Iraq. Echoing James Connolly their banner will be "We serve neither Bush nor Mobil" Thus, those who represent the Continuity of Ireland's struggle in the U.S. will be in the forefront of the resistance to the war. read full story / add a comment
