The Irish independent reports: " In February a cargo plane carrying three Boeing Apache helicopters, the type used by both the American and Israeli forces, landed at Shannon, where it stayed overnight before taking off for Israel. When contacted last month both the Department of Transport, which is responsible for foreign civilian flights, and the Department of Foreign Affairs, which is responsible for foreign military flights, denied any knowledge of the flight. This week, when presented with the serial numbers of the cargo planes and of the helicopters, they conceded the flights had taken place and said that they have launched an inquiry. Although Shannon airport is routinely used by American planes in support of the ongoing occupation of Iraq, this is the first time it has emerged that Ireland also facilitates the sale of American heavy-arms sales.

The very American travelling circus that is tent religion matured and found expression in the mass ‘conversions’ (come on down and be saved style) of Billy Graham, demagogue and showman, the forerunner of today’s Evangelicals. Plastic religion for a plastic society, Graham invented ‘Kentucky fried religion’, a fast consumable product that was accessible to the masses, requiring nothing but gleefully running to the stage and in spectacular fashion being ‘saved’ by Billy or one of his many imitators. Modern Evangelicalism was born, long arduous hours of meditation and prayer in the pursuit of Deity was a thing of the medieval past. ... read full story / add a comment

Anthony McIntyre has stood up for Womens Rifghts and Democratict Rights against the Islamofascists. For doing this, the SWP and their lackeys have called him an Islamophobe. In the article below Anthony profiles Maryam Namazie, an Iranian Socialist Feminist. Maryam shows how backward and reactionary Islam is. How opposing Islam is literally a life or death question for Women in Islamic States. Maryam says: "Labelling women's rights activists as racists is a dim-witted ploy to justify and excuse women's status under Islam and political Islam, and deny women and people living in the Middle East and Iran universal rights and freedoms." Theres an excerpt from the article below. The full article is at the link. pat ... read full story / add a comment

The US media operating clearly on behalf of US capitalism has reacted angrily to the protests in France using hatred and fear. This is quite striking because normally the US media hardly covers internal developments in other countries. So the fact it is doing this shows it's true fears which are that the social unrest might spread to the USA itself where social tensions are already very high. ... read full story / add a comment
