Airport eerily quiet, hardly anyone in it at all. Airport police set up a check point on the main road. A US MILITARY HERCULES landed It parked near cargo terminal. Ryanair landed 5 minutes later, went to usual stand close to the Herc. We announced this in the terminal. I called the cops. Ryanair passengers were visibly shocked, as they left the terminal, the words "apalling" and "disgrace" were used to describe the presence of the Hercules. then ATA landed. then lots of peace activists started arriving up from the camp. Then the troops got back on their plane (much earlier than planned) AND THEN IT LEFT. read full story / add a comment

Tim Allen, master chef, of Ballymaloe House, County Cork, was convicted yesterday of a despicable crime: using child pornography. The children exploited in the films used by Allen for his pleasure will probably go to bed hungry, if they have a bed or are not already dead. Yet the judge allowed this monster to walk free, because he is rich and could pay a fine. One law for the rich and one for the poor. Boycott Ballymaloe House and all its products! read full story / add a comment

Prime time on Rte last night exposed some of the truth about the coverup of the shady circumstances surrounding the deaths of 3 Irish soldiers. Expect more of this when the generals and politicans get their way and participate in future wars on the side of the yankees and the Euro army against poor 3rd world countries. read full story / add a comment
