May 10 (Bethlehem) Today at 2:40 pm, the Israeli army stormed the Church of the Nativity and arrested ten internationals, who had risked their lives last week to bring food and medical supplies to the priests, monks and Palestinian citizens held inside the church. Those inside had been reduced to eating grass and leaves until the internationals brought in rice, lentils, salt and other essential foodstuffs. One of the internationals, Mary Kelly - a trained nurse, was able to treat the injured and sick who had been denied access to medical treatment until then read full story / add a comment

Excerpt: "Thursdy march was not the same at all, many (Reclaim the Streets and others) lamented; it had been hijacked by left-wing groups who laid the dreary recruiting hand of organised socialism upon them. An RTS spokesperson made a point of expressing dismay at this in the last-but-one speech outside Pearse Street station. His was meant to be the very last speech but Globalise Resistance master of ceremonies Joe Carolan, also a member of the Socialist Workers' Movement (sic), could not resist packing in one more speech from one more over-excited radical bent on winning potential members to myriad socialist causes." read full story / add a comment

You read the news accounts of Israel's discovery of documents linking Yasser Arafat directly to terrorist acts and sponsorship of suicide bombings. Now read the report for yourself. http://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/go.asp?MFAH0lom0 I have. And I find it beyond persuasive. I find it conclusive. But, of course, I did not need convincing. My own work over 20 years covering the Middle East long ago persuaded me that Arafat is an unrepentant killer of innocents – a thug, a monster, an evil, manipulative terrorist, a murderer of dozens of Americans including diplomats, women, old handicapped men and children. Yet, this report by Israel's Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs is worth reading – beyond what it has to say regarding Arafat. Check out how it indicts Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah – that other great peacemaker. Find out about the other billionaire sheiks of the Middle East and the roles they play in murder and mayhem. read full story / add a comment

Once again on Thursday night, the Inspector that was at the march on Monday and on Thursday was without identification numbers. The man refused to give his numbers, name or rank on Monday night (I asked him twice for them) and as was pointed out on last night's Late Late Show, another person asked the same Inspector 4 times for his name, number, rank and his officers names and numbers and was refused. Is there some rule which exempts senior officers from wearing their numbers? read full story / add a comment

In my opinion the term "Globalise Resistance"needs to evolve,Resistance needs to become movement in some direction.A term that when people read it they think hey hang on this really does affect me "survival of Humanity Movement"or "Real Democracy"or something anything,I am just writing this to see if anyone else was thinking the same.Just an idea, evolution happens everyday,Anyway what do you think,the names in quotation are just ideas feel free to come up with your own or tell me to fuck off whatever you reckon... read full story / add a comment
