/"The largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history has swept across the United States. The Halliburton-developed drilling technology of "fracking" or hydraulic fracturing has unlocked a "Saudia Arabia of natural gas" just beneath us. But is fracking safe? When filmmaker Josh Fox is asked to lease his land for drilling, he embarks on a cross-country odyssey uncovering a trail of secrets, lies and contamination. A recently drilled nearby Pennsylvania town reports that residents are able to light their drinking water on fire. This is just one of the many absurd and astonishing revelations of a new country called GASLAND. Part verite travelogue, part expose, part mystery, part bluegrass banjo meltdown, part showdown." read full story / add a comment

Event page on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=139878486083442

Time: 3pm - 6pm Thursday the 21th of April.
Location: Apartheid "Israeli" Embassy, Pembroke Rd, Dublin 4, Ireland
http://www.yelp.ie/map/israel-embassy-dublin

The regular weekly protest of the "israeli" embassy shall go ahead as per usual. The demonstration will start there and after an hour will march to the Italian embassy just around the corner. There we will show solidarity and respect for Vittorio Arrigoni, an Italian activist murdered in Gaza last week.

An important message will also be sent out to our Palestinian brothers and sisters: we are still with you. The murder of Vittorio was carried out by people who cannot be considered as Palestinian; this is not the way of the people or their religion. read full story / add a comment

international / rights, freedoms and repression / news report Monday April 18, 2011 14:13 by John Cornford
Fifteen people have been killed in Ahwaz, a city in Iran's Khuzestan province, according to Al Arabiya News Channel. Iranian security forces backed by militias dressed in civilian clothes broke up demonstrations by force.

The group “Youth of April 15” said in its pages on Facebook and Twitter that 15 people from Ahwaz have been killed and dozens have been wounded since demonstrations began last Friday. Friday had been declared as a “Day of Rage” to demand rights for the ethnic Arab majority in Iran’s Khuzestan province. “The humanitarian situation is very bad,” and there were reports of a lack of the food and water, the group said. read full story / add a comment

Yet another split from the British SWP. About 40 have left. But how honest are they in their convictions?

The resignation of Socialist Workers Party central committee member Chris Bambery on April 10 was rapidly followed by the departure of at least 38 comrades in Scotland two days later. These defectors are expected to formally announce their adherence to the Counterfire grouping of John Rees and Lindsey German sooner rather than later
