Sitting here in Galway today reading the newswire, i can hear military jets (presumably US) flying overhead in preparation for the Salthill Airshow. For some people in certain parts of our world that sound means imminent and indiscriminate injury or death. For us its just a fun day out down in Salthill, naked militarism? no its just Entertainment!.
Once more we are faced with the stark contrast between Reality and the life that we actually lead here ...in cloud cuckoo land.

Still high from the incredible buzz of the three-day peace camp and wild sense of empowerment I always feel on actions with da Grassroots; looks like I’m not alone, seems the buzz is contagious. In the few short days since, I’ve met strangers on the streets of Galway with faces aglow, yelling hello, eager to share the wonderment of their experiences of the weekend. “People don’t understand,” one new friend, exclaims, “How fun this all is; how great you feel when we come together to oppose the soul destroyers.” ... read full story / add a comment

President Bush has been castigated by the media, ostensibly for his war-mongering.
