GLOBALiSE RESiSTANCE BULLETiN! The GR meeting on Wednesday 16th was amazing...the discussion, energy and enthusiasm to get things done really demonstrates that the electricity about the build up towards the WEF is gathering momentum! I think considering that the European Time magazine called the WEF the 'headquarters' of Globalisation that we should realise just how HUGE the mobilisations for Oct could be if we do our job right...There is so much anger in the air at the moment against our NeoLiberal Fianna Fail/PD 'overlords' on top of an atmosphere of political generalisation the likes of which WORLDWIDE has never been seen!! PERMANENT GLOBALiSED RESiSTANCE! read full story / add a comment

The Irish Music Rights Organisation, and organisations like it around the world, administers licences for performing rights. Developed from copyright theory, performing rights act as a justification for prescriptive control, making it legitimate for one person to prescribe the actions of another unless a fee is paid. Have you ever given performing rights a second thought? have you ever questioned the validity of performing rights? Have you ever thought about the role of persuasion and coercion in the politics of copyright and performing rights? read full story / add a comment

One person in five speaks the Irish language on a daily basis according to new statistics released from the Irish Central Statistics Office. Three quarters of the speakers are at school. 66.6% of the people surveyed said they had the ability to speak Irish but rarely spoke the language. They said that if they spoke it they would only use it on a weekly basis. Across the country 1.57 million can speak Irish fluently. In 1996 1.43 million spoke the language and although the figures for 2003 seem to be positive they have to be regarded within the context that few people actually answered this question in the survey. The largest number of speakers over the age of three in the country are in Galway. In Galway city the proportion of speakers has increased to 50.5%. read full story / add a comment

It is extraordinary that some people who post here, and probably pride themselves on their "progressive" politics, can think the kidnap and imprisonment of totally innocent people is a good idea, as long as it's carried out by the FARC ghouls. Have these people ever devoted even a moment's thought to the despicable crime against humanity that kidnapping represnets ? They should read this report from the BBC: read full story / add a comment

The following short quote is taken from Organic Bytes, a weekly mail out from the good ppl at the organic consumers website....and, with the new US offensive against (Good) old europe's desire to _label_ (and perhaps even... ban :-0 )genetically engineered products, its time to remind ourselves, once again, of what the bastards are at: QUICK QUIZ: HOW U.S. DEMOCRACY WORKS Question: How is it that every industrialized nation in the world has banned Monsanto's rBGH as unsafe, but it's legal (and unlabeled) in the United States? read full story / add a comment

It will probably not surprise many people, but George Bush treated Senegal and its people with utter contempt during his recent to that country —700 US security personnel protected the paranoid president; all trees along his route had to be cut down; state exams were postponed; roads, businesses and hospitals were shut for the duration. read full story / add a comment

A well written and courageous article by Gideon Levy how a people and their land is slowly but surely being destroyed. A shocking read from the liberal Israeli daily newspaper Ha'aretz. The 'apartheid wall' that is being built by the Israeli government destroys normal Palestinian farmers livelihood, cuts them off from their land, and from water. read full story / add a comment |
