Gardai took up approximately half of the available seats in the Belmullet courtroom Wednesday, leaving others to stand around at the edges. Things had barely begun when Judge Devins caught sight of a man with a large camera standing at the back. He was brought to the front and reprimanded before the judge turned her attention to the Gardai "if this was the four-courts people would have been searched, in eight years I've never seen this before" – the proceedings were halted and everyone was ordered out to be searched. read full story / add a comment

A year ago those whose interest in the slave trade goes no further than ending it, found their representative and publicity interests well served by a case which emerged in the small state of Dubai. Investigative work by a US based human rights agency found that children had been imported to Dubai by the number 2 of that state under a variety of pretexts most of which were false. Instead the boys were kept in a malnourished state so that they could serve as jockeys in the hippodromes and race courses of that land. Dubai owes both its sovreignity and dynastic style to the British Empire. The current ruler overthrew his Sandhurst educated father to oversee a new Dubai strategy tackling the realities of "peak oil" and the potential dwindling of the state's income. read full story / add a comment

Human rights are under threat. After the tragic events of 11 September 2001 in the US, human rights have come under attack in a way unimaginable a few years ago. In the new security climate, governments have undermined international human rights standards that protect people from abuse. Some use it as an excuse to persecute their political opponents. Some use it as an excuse to torture. Torture does not stop terror. Torture is terror. Don't ignore it. You can stop it. read full story / add a comment

This article illustrates how the US invasion and occuption of Iraq has destroyed what was previously a secular society. Power has been put into the hands of reactionary clerics. Full article at the link. Religious clerics are beginning to play an increasingly powerful role in Iraq. Many Iraqis now fear that they are endangering human rights and religious freedom in the once largely secular country. Clerics began to play a major role since the U.S.-led occupation began in April 2003. Despite the promises of U.S. President George W. Bush to turn Iraq into a secular and free country, clerics have become the real leaders, and are beginning to control most political matters. read full story / add a comment
