Mirian Cotton and David Manning piece in Counterpunch discussing how the “dominant media” in Ireland treated the Iranian elections and compares that media's handling of the elections in Honduras which occurred around the same time. The dominant media Cotton and Manning refer to is the right wing, corporate press. The Irish left wing media which took an identical ahmadjian-stole-the-election, pro green wave line to papers such as the Irish Times do not get mentioned in the article.

Capitalism is afraid to let the depression go its full course to thereby cleanse the system because of the potential threat from the working class.

"Capitalist crisis and workers response"

The accommodation only allows for a limited number of residential places and most of these have been booked.
