The BBC is reporting that the US has offered $10bn in aid to help Israel out of the worst economic crisis since the country was created. They ignore UN resolution 242 for 30 years and they get aid. Why have they not been punished for their unending human rights abuses? Full story from the BBC is here - http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2867619.stm The US government is hypocritical in the extreme. They preach democracy and justice, but all they care about is themselves. read full story / add a comment

He replied that he was afraid to do so in case he was blacked by Top Oil & put out of business. read full story / add a comment

Why are RTE not showing the Dail debate in full? Why do we need to see Crossroads instead of the most important debate in the Dail for years? I couldn't get a straight answer from them. Jam the switchboard and demand that it be shown in full, not sanitised highlights later. RTE 01-208 3111 ask for newsroom read full story / add a comment

By Amos Harel, Aluf Benn, Nathan Guttman and Moti Bassok, Haaretz Correspondents U.S. messages passed to Israel early Thursday indicate that American forces are apparently already operating in western Iraq in an effort to head off possible Iraqi Scud missile attacks against Israel. The Bush administration, keen to avert Israeli involvement in the conflict in order to safeguard its fragile coalition, prevent escalation and limit pro-Iraqi identification in the Arab world, has pledged to forestall a repetition of 1991 Gulf war attacks, in which Iraq fired 39 Scud missiles at the Jewish state. read full story / add a comment

Its now 10 hours since ‘Operation Iraqi Freedom’ was launched. Tomahawk cruise missles fired from stealth bombers rain down on innocents in Baghdad. Our so-called leaders are currently massed in the capital, defending the use of our territory in the bombing of another nation. We are no longer observers. The blood is on our hands. This illegal, immoral & indefensible war has finally begun. Today is Day X. read full story / add a comment |
