Instead of being "cannon fodder for the Russian masses on the German plains," Queen's shilling Irishmen can now engage in imperial conquest in Afghanistan. Happily, they are "not stepping off to Afghanistan with the words of the prime minister ringing in their ears.” Ovinely, “they are going because the guy next to them is going.” read full story / add a comment

Today’s Irish Independent features a rather poor attempt at a hatchet job of left wing activism in Ireland. Will Hanafin decided to hang around several left wing protests at the request of the Irish Independent. What emerges is a tale of him meeting middle-aged women and humourless platitudes. Of course maybe “far-left protesters” are just humourless individuals or idiots, as Hanafin seems to suggest. read full story / add a comment

The weekly Friday protests in Nabi Saleh against the theft of village land for the construction of the illegal Israeli "settler" colony of Halamish have the reputation as the most violent in the West Bank and yesterday's confirmed this hitherto perception: Once the peaceful demonstrators reached the line of army jeeps and soldiers blocking their passage, some were manhandled to the ground and coordinator of the protests; Bassem Tamimi received rough handling, later Jonathan Shapiro an Israeli with live conscience and strong for Palestine was violently arrested. read full story / add a comment

Yesterday, yet again, protestors in Nabi Salah were subjected to merciless Israeli violence with one youth injured and ambulanced away for treatment. This time, however, the perpetrators were repeatedly challenged by a brave, brave woman: Huwaida Arraf, who blocked with her body two Israeli Occupation Forces soldiers from firing killer, high velocity tear gas projectiles at some stone throwing youth. With telling truth she informed them that the the demonstration was over and their continued presence was designed to provoke and intimidate and for them to go home - her pleas were in vain as the IOF made continuous terrorising forays on foot and jeep into the village until late into the evening. read full story / add a comment |
