Kerry gets nowhere because he says he would do the same thing Bush did, only differently.

'What I want to do is change the dynamics on the ground,' Kerry volunteered. 'And you have to do that by beginning to not back off of Falluja and other places and send the wrong message to terrorists. You've got to show you're serious.' Right on, John!"

A Scottish anti-nuke activist yesterday told the local court near Faslane nuke base that until the courtroom was accessible to all the public (people in wheelchairs included) it surely couldn't be said to be a place where fair and public tribunals are held. This press release reminds me, I don't recall seeing a ramp or lift at the entrance to Ennis courthouse, where Mary Kelly is on trial again today. Hmmm. read full story / add a comment

UCD Labour Youth will welcome former Irish Locomotive Drivers Association activist Brendan Ogle to Belfield this Wednesday.

Ogle, now involved in the ATGWU, was a major player in the recognition dispute at Iarnród Éireann in 2000. He has a unique insight into trade unionism and industrial relations in ireland and is the author of a recent book, "Off the Rails: The Story of ILDA," in which much of the dispute is summarised from a worker's perspective.

Ogle will speak on the topic "Trade Unionism and Social Partnership Today" and the event will comprise a brief introduction and a questions and answers session. The meeting will take place in Theatre R of the Arts Block at 6pm on Wednesday, October 27th.

All are welcome to what is bound to be a fascinating insight into the contentious world of Irish trade unionism and industrial relations.

“Israel has the right to defend and to protect itself” is one of the empty phrases which Americans constantly repeat. What they really mean each time when they repeat this phrase is that they have abandoned all attempts to conceal the fact that they have become but a satrapy of Israel, and that they can do nothing to deny Israel the "right" to occupy the West Bank and Gaza, the right to "protect" the settlers and ITF occupation and the continued violations of human rights. Israel has the right to kill, to steal, to arrest, to demolish ... to do just anything. read full story / add a comment
