In a recent interview with Sunday Independent, O'Leary has expressed his admiration for the legacy of Haughey. He particularily admired CJ's "can-do" spirit and highlights his involvement in the development of Temple Bar as an example of this legacy.

This praise comes from a man who asked the winner of free air travel with Ryanair for life "who the hell did she think she was demanding free travel" and actually went to court to defend the fraud.

Ryanairs addiction to fradulent advertising has hopefully been knocked back by a court in Cologne which has ruled that an airfield 70 km from Dusseldorf is not actually in Dusseldorf. Doubtless Mr. O'Leary wishes the corrupt Helmut Kohl was back in power in Germany to show some "can-do" spirit. ... read full story / add a comment

SHOULD nationalists accept once and or all that unionists have the right to have their own identity and culture and to celebrate their own festivals, then calls for "calm" over the Twelfth period would be unnecessary.

Any difficulties experienced can be blamed on the immaturity and bigotry of those who cannot abide anything that does not pay homage to Irish nationalism. ... read full story / add a comment

What has been going on in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian West Bank and Gaza Strip is not only overtly tragic and deadly by all counts but is covertly an embodiment of Israel`s unique "democracy". Thanks to this unprecedented democracy, the entire Palestinian territories have been converted into a big prison where the sufferings of the Palestinian people are unbearable. ... read full story / add a comment

This recent report outlines the reality of the plight of Palestinian prisoners. The draconian measures Israel is perpetrating make any comparison with British internment of Irish activists tragically laughable.

The media is currently holding the line that Israel is making serious concessions by contemplating releasing a small number of prisoners. Reports by Amnesty and Stop the Torture shed light on the list of human rights abuses Israel has been carrying out for decades and which have led to the recent Intifada.
