According to an Ireland.com report (below) a Garda spokesman said this afternoon no officer was injured or hospitalised in the Shannon incident - despite what government ministers are saying. The government will no doubt try any trick to try and split the anti-war movement in the run-up to Feb 15 (like in the UK banning the Feb 15th march from assembling in Hyde Park). Congratulations guys on disarming part of the murder machine. read full story / add a comment

The Indians, Chinese and Europeans are beginning to understand that the US is seeking to gain “leverage against them” by securing control of the oil. Tareq Aziz said that a US war would not be a war on Iraq alone, but a war on the region, India, Sri Lanka and Europe. “Iraq is the first, but not the only target,” Aziz told the Irish lawmakers. The ultimate US aim is to “recolonise Iraq” and secure “control of its oil” in order to dominate the entire global economy. read full story / add a comment
