In the middle of his current visit to Tanzania, British chancellor Gordon Brown has claimed that "the days of Britain apologising for its colonial past are over". Some of us may beforgiven for wondering when we ever heard any of these apologies, but I suppose that would be unfair to the chancellor and highly cynical. Especially when one considers his follow up comment that it was time for Africans to start talking about "the enduring British traditions of liberty and tolerance". ANC leader Thabo Mbeki, for some strange unearthly reason, isnt highly impressed by the British chancellor. He claims that British imperialists have simply treated the African peoples whose lands they occupied as savages. ... read full story / add a comment

I deplore what has occured since 9/11/2001. Thousands upon thousands of people have been murdered by American bombardment of Afghanistan where the terrorists were based but the bombing has not affected the terrorists by an iota. We must use peaceful methods. But how? ... read full story / add a comment

Take an anonymous Pentagon leak from a “high level military officer,” add an appalling lack of knowledge of history, and compound it with ignorance of special warfare tactics. This process describes the article published by Newsweek breathlessly revealing that a “desperate” Defense Secretary Rumsfeld is “considering” employing the “Salvadoran option” to thwart the “growing quagmire” of the Iraq War. ... read full story / add a comment

Anyone know what the small white planes are that fly round? They look like US military drones of some kind? ... read full story / add a comment

Senator Feargal Quinn and his family have made an estimated €400 million gross from the sale of most of their holdings in the Superquinn supermarket group. Senator Quinn, as a person who became a public figure by choice, should set an example by allocating a significant portion of his family's fortune for charitable purposes. ... read full story / add a comment

Ideas and Ideologies – Davy Carlin 10/01/05 For, The Blanket, Indy media and Street Seen As an activist I have been involved in many campaigns over the last few years. From Anti Sectarianism, to Anti War, Anti Globalisation, to Anti Racism, Anti Privatisation to Anti Poverty and in each I have witnessed various movements, some mass, others less so. Nevertheless within each of them I had both seen and played an active part with others in initiating the coming together of not only peoples, Catholic, Protestant and Dissenter but of diverse organisations, groups and individual activists. Yet with all of these having been termed as being ‘Anti’ and against, what exactly then are we for. ... read full story / add a comment
