The whole of the south inner city is up for development. Dublin City Council are in the process of drawing up or have already drawn up framework plans for our communities. However in the past years we have seen areas like Cork Street developed without any real thought for the needs of the community. How can we make sure that this will not be allowed happen again? This meeting is to get a clear picture of what is ahead over the next few years and to see how we can have our say. read full story / add a comment

An interesting review:of Treacherous Alliance – the secret dealings of Israel, Iran and the United States By Trita Parsi. Yale University Press, New Haven. 2007 by Jim Miles.

Trita Parsi succeeds in this goal in Treacherous Alliance, in which he discusses the relationship between the three. read full story / add a comment
