We were told last week that the 'Terror Plot' was only days away from being implemented. Now it turns out there were no bombs made, they had NOT bought any airline tickets and that some of the so-called plotters didn't even have a passport. That would mean they would not even get pass the check-in desk. In other words there was no plot. So it is just like all the other scares that had no substance to them and it was purely designed to hype the fear and ratchet up further police state measures and basically intimidate the population. read full story / add a comment

David Hicks, good, bad or just plain stupid remains an Australian son. Democratic nations have a responsibility to protect their citizens in times of need; a number of democratic nations have already successfully repatriated their citizens from the illegal torture centre of Guantanamo Bay; however, after a period of four years the Howard government has been unable or unwilling to effect the repatriation of David Hicks. If a truly strong case against Hicks existed it surely would have been prosecuted to the full advantage of the terrorist scare campaign that Bush constantly wages on the American people. The fact that the USA is loath to give Hicks a fair and open trial, and in view of the obvious manipulative tactics utilised by corrupt U.S. ‘legal’ officers to delay proceedings, it would appear that the grounds upon which the U.S. military have based their ‘case’ are extremely flimsy and/or could attract litigation for illegal detention, torture and human rights abuses! read full story / add a comment

The Department of Education recorded an underspend of £69 million last year. This at a time when they are insisting that spending on children’s education should be slashed. The £69million underspend should have been used to provide education services for children. £69million is sufficient to resolve every funding issue in the two hardest hit areas, the South Eastern Education and Library Board (Co Down) and the Belfast Education and Library Board (Belfast City). If that money was released there would be no excuse for special needs cuts, cuts in teacher numbers, school transport cuts, staff shortages, freeze on Classroom Assistants job evaluation, library cuts, etc. The education trade unions are demanding that the Department immediately release this cash. read full story / add a comment

Sy Hersh (widely speculated to have lots of good CIA informants) writes in the New Yorker that the Bush administration needed the Israelis to invade Lebanon so that Hezbollah's long-range missiles could be removed (so that when the USA attacks Iran there won't be any possibility for retaliatory strikes Israeli intelligence estimated at the outset of the air war that Hezbollah had roughly five hundred medium-range Fajr-3 and Fajr-5 rockets and a few dozen long-range Zelzal rockets; the Zelzals, with a range of about two hundred kilometres, could reach Tel Aviv. (One rocket hit Haifa the day after the kidnappings.) It also has more than twelve thousand shorter-range rockets. Since the conflict began, more than three thousand of these have been fired at Israel. [...] “The Israelis told us it would be a cheap war with many benefits,” a U.S. government consultant with close ties to Israel said. “Why oppose it? We’ll be able to hunt down and bomb missiles, tunnels, and bunkers from the air. It would be a demo for Iran.” read full story / add a comment |
