'I don't think I'll ever get over it. Me and my son were very, very close,' says Gina McIlveen, pictured at the shrine to her son, Michael, outside her home in Ballymena. Photograph: Alan Lewis/Photopress Belfast The killing of Ballymena teenager Michael McIlveen is evidence of the deep-rooted sectarianism that is infecting a new generation, reports Susan McKay Gina McIlveen had her own experience of sectarian violence before she lost her 15-year-old son, Michael, to it this week. Last Christmas, she and her 16-year-old daughter, Jodie, who was heavily pregnant, were in the Tower Shopping Centre in Ballymena. "This girl was following us around and she came over and she said: 'I'll kick that Fenian baby out of you.' She went for me outside Santa's grotto and then this man ran out and cracked my face with his fist and broke my nose," she says. ... read full story / add a comment

In the last week the Iranian regime has sent 2 letters to the USA, a state which like it is ruled by God Freaks, and also like it is plausibly credited with promoting the most anti-zionism in the world. It has been a long time since anything as simple as an 8 page letter sent from one "religous nutter" to another could excite comments or be included by the soothsayers of Capital in the reasons for the brief lull and then spike on Oil prices this week. Actually it might be the first time anything as simple as a letter caused that... Dr. Mahmoud (Ahmadinejad / Ahmadinezhad) is the "democratically" elected president of the Islamic republic of Iran, a state which is comitted to the destruction of Israel, the development of Nuclear power, and generally getting up the Yankee nose. George Bush is a man who doesn't read newspapers, uses his illiteracy and mal-adroit speech as a propaganda tool, and consistently involves Jesus (PBUH) in all his decision making. Guantanamo Bay is the most obvious and public sign of US disregard for international law, the place they bothered to tell us about, where over 500 people are held without trial, and experimented on. Its a really scary place. Its so scary that for years we didn't ask questions about it, and its so horrific that Gary Mc Kinnon who used his IT know-how to access the USA defense computers to find out where UFO's really alien or just natural phenomona today is reported as being scared he will be sent there, if extradited. ... read full story / add a comment

"No Less Courage" By KATE McCABE In a statement to his lawyer, Guantánamo detainee and hunger strike organizer Binyam Mohammed al-Habashi said of his plans to protest his unlawful imprisonment by the United States: "I do not plan to stop until I either die or we are respected. [We] will definitely die. Bobby Sands petitioned the British government to stop the illegitimate treatment of Irishmen without trial. He had the courage of his convictions and he starved himself to death. Nobody should believe for one moment that my brothers here have less courage." ... read full story / add a comment
