Why is it illegal to burn a Koran but fine for pro-Hamas protesters to destroy a Union Flag? Why is one a "public order offence" and the other not? Because in two-tier Britain the one rule is that you can't upset Muslims.

All of the classes are geared at beginners, but the speed of progress in each group and the amount of Spanish used in the lessons will be determined by the level you are placed in.

international / worker & community struggles and protests / other press Sunday December 07, 2008 19:39 by pat c
This is an extract from an interview with Ali Pichgah, one of the founding members of the oil workers’ shora (council) who later played an important role in the first major oil strike against the Theocracy. Ali details the oil workers actions which helped to bring down the Shah and the later struggles against the Theocracy. Comrade Pichgah is a supporter of Hands Off the People of Iran. Full text at link.

How do you assess current workers’ struggles in Iran?

First of all, I must say that as long as capitalism rules class struggle exists. The capitalist order in Iran has managed to survive through repression and force, and the spreading of religious superstition and falsehoods. However, as far as the workers’ struggle is concerned, our ranks are divided; and as long as we can’t unite on a large scale, this repression will continue. Unity requires the building of strong, mass workers’ organisations. read full story / add a comment

Much has been said over the Lisbon Treaty and the future direction of Europe under the heel of the emerging “European Soviet” (Reference to the EU by M. Gorbachev, London 2001). Yet there is little in the way of real debate on the more informative topics of nationhood, sovereignty and “que bono” (who benefits). This article sets out to stimulate such questions. The text of an informative Lecture called “The State of Individuals” by one of Americas most worthy Political Historians is provided for discussion. read full story / add a comment

Brian Crowley MEP: With all respect, Mr. President, you will not tell me what the Irish think. As an Irishman, I know it best.
President Vaclav Klaus: I do not speculate about what the Irish think. I state the only measurable data which were proved by the referendum...
... If Mr. Crowley speaks of an insult to the Irish people, then I must say that the biggest insult to the Irish people is not to accept the result of the Irish referendum. In Ireland I met somebody who represents a majority in his country. You, Mr. Crowley, represent a view which is in minority in Ireland. That is a tangible result of the referendum. read full story / add a comment
