The Sunday Independent (the weekend organ of the Independent Newspaper group, famously run by industry boss William Martin Murphy, leader of the attempt to break the unions in the 1913 Lockout immortalised in Strumpet City) has two copies of the same story sandwiching a fulminating opinion piece about the IRA. The two working titles show an indecision as to whether or not the IRA should be implicated directly in alleged threats against Shell/Statoil or not. Make up your mind editors. Do you dare to tell a blatant lie or not? read full story / add a comment

OVER the past year the local people from the pretty little West Bank village of Bil’in have been holding protests every Friday against the planned building of Israel’s Wall (Apartheid Wall/Security Fence) right outside the northern section of the village. Each Friday villagers have been joined by left wing Israeli’s and international activists to march to the line where the wall is to be built. Two weeks ago (Friday 8, July) a Palestinian youth died from injuries he received while on the protest from a ‘rubber bullet’ fired by the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). Below is a report from the latest protest at the West Bank town. read full story / add a comment

The disengagement plan:
The previous and present Governments of Israel knew for fact that they do not want to keep Gaza and the Palestinians in Gaza under their control. The question was always when, how and to what price would Israel withdraw from Gaza. In the Post-Oslo era there was for Israel no reason why it shouldn't have withdrawn from Gaza and evacuate the settlements. The Atmosphere was ready, the détente was at its peak and Rabin and Peres (and Arafat) won the Peace Nobel price. The question in deed is: Why didn't Israel between 1995 and September 2000 withdraw from Gaza and evacuated the settlements?

The Palestinians can then wait till "they turn Finns"? read full story / add a comment

On the 6th of july the EU parliament rejected software patents, another step in the struggle for ideas & information.

It wasn't reported (by me) as it that time the G8 seemed more important, and the Irish MEP votes on this issue which effects all europeans and all users of indymedia were already long decided on "party political ground".

In the end 14 votes were cast in favour, 648 against and 18 abstentions. read full story / add a comment
