Anti-imperialism and Tehran Every day the media publish unattributed briefings by US generals and Pentagon sources regarding Iran’s connections to Al Qa’eda, the Taliban and various other terror groups. Most of the media briefings contain no details of substance and many simply repeat previous accusations.

The Six One News tonight was followed by a Consumer Soap Opera 'Docu' special on the intimacies and murder of the O Reilly Marriage. Serious Reporters discussed with alacrity the 'ins' and 'outs' of the case. This is because RTE are consumer driven shite and incapable of Opinion and analysis. -They like to give the public what it wants- This kind of mentality drives US Consumer TV where Newsreaders burn reports on Paris Hilton. When did RTE last analyse Geo- political movements GM/ECO/. It has become popcorn TV for the Great brainwashed Irish Nation. read full story / add a comment

One of the most controversial inquiries of the Troubles, involving claims that police officers in Northern Ireland secretly adopted a "shoot to kill" policy, has been reopened, the Guardian has learned. The allegations that republican terrorist suspects were deliberately killed rather than being arrested led to an investigation by John Stalker, then deputy chief constable of Manchester, in the mid 1980s. But his report was never published, and there was political uproar after he was removed from his post just at the point where he believed he was about to obtain an MI5 tape of one of the shootings. read full story / add a comment
