The primary role of the police is to preserve the status quo in society. In other words, the first task of the police force, of any police force, is to ensure the rule of the State and the rich elite. In practice this means priority is given to concerns of State over that of the population. For example, in Stoneybatter, near Dublin city-centre, on a number of occasions, the Guards have responded to break-ins over 12 hours after the event. In contrast the Guards were always prompt in attending to the scene of a bin-truck blockade. ... read full story / add a comment

"The problems with aspartame include not only the biochemical nature of this toxin but also it sheds light on the political nature of the players involved. The changes in regulatory policies and regulations resulting from corporate-government ties and the politicians closely associated with these ties. What I can tell you, regarding toxicology, histology and biochemistry, is that aspartame is neurotoxic. Its components easily transcend the blood-brain barrier, interfering with normal nerve cell function. This affects the glutathione and calcium mechanisms in place, destroying nerve call integrity. The methanol then breaks down into formaldehyde-formic acid components, which denaturizes/mutates the DNA: a known scientific fact. The subsequent result from this interaction and from isolates of genetically modified amino acids, the methanol, is nerve cell necrosis and subsequent organ system degradation" Arthur M. Evangelista, a former FDA Investigator ... read full story / add a comment

This essay argues that the conflict in the Persian Gulf is conditioned by the needs of American capitalism, and thus whether a Democrat or a Republican, a war hero or a draft dodger, sits in the Oval Office, it will make no difference to the propensity of the American state to commit acts of mass violence. An argument which is held up as a true by the record of Clinton, a man who recently received adulation in Dublin, yet whose administration slew far more than that of either Bush Snr. or Jnr. ... read full story / add a comment |
