The WHO once aimed to help nations stand on their own two feet, but now it mainly pushes the agendas of the rich and powerful, says Dr David Bell. That's why it cares more about experimental vaccines than basic sanitation.

There has been a dramatic drop in the number of speeders caught. This coincides with an increase in the number of road deaths. The Garda say it's because their manpower is spent minding Bush and EU leaders. The DoT says everything is fine and that speeding has decreased (when actually the DETECTION of speeding has decreased). read full story / add a comment

Many thanks to Indymedia for allowing space on your web site to raise awareness about this ongoing crisis.
Two days from now, August 27th, is Cork City Council's deadline for receiving submissions on the accommodation needs of Travellers over the next 4 years. Was it naivety or a calculated move to advertise seeking submissions at the one time of the year when Travellers (and Traveller organisations) are not around?
The following was submitted today by the Traveller Visibility Group.
If anybody else is in a position to make a submission, the person to write to is Jim Beecher, Housing Section, Cork City Council.
The e-mail address to use is [email protected] and please copy your submissions to [email protected]

This essay argues that the conflict in the Persian Gulf is conditioned by the needs of American capitalism, and thus whether a Democrat or a Republican, a war hero or a draft dodger, sits in the Oval Office, it will make no difference to the propensity of the American state to commit acts of mass violence. An argument which is held up as a true by the record of Clinton, a man who recently received adulation in Dublin, yet whose administration slew far more than that of either Bush Snr. or Jnr. read full story / add a comment

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. agents have raided the homes of five people who allegedly traded hundreds of thousands of songs, movies and other copyrighted material over the Internet, Attorney General John Ashcroft says.

Agents raided residences in Texas, New York and Wisconsin early on Wednesday and seized computers that they suspect were involved in a nationwide file-trading network.

The American Conservative -- not a hippy zine -- includes a great article this issue about Bush's so-called "coalition of the willing".
"In short, Mr. Bush has done more to electrify the international Left and give it a sense of common purpose than anyone since Che Guevara. That’s true coalition building—just not the kind Washington had in mind." read full story / add a comment
