This video highlights just fifty of the many Fianna Fail scandals that have hit the headlines since Bertie Ahern became Party Leader in December 1994. This sheer volume of continuous scandals - some serious, some more trivial - has now become almost helpful to Fianna Fail, because we have now become so desensitised to scandals that we just accept them as the normal state of affairs. ... read full story / add a comment

An interesting review:of Treacherous Alliance – the secret dealings of Israel, Iran and the United States By Trita Parsi. Yale University Press, New Haven. 2007 by Jim Miles.

As the prospects of a limited ‘strike’ or a full out attack on Iran become more and more familiar in the media, and as the end date for the Bush-Cheney regime in the United States draws ever nearer to its close, a better understanding of the tripartite relationship between Iran, Israel, and the U.S. requires a strong presentation of the underlying so far verbal conflict between the three governments. Trita Parsi succeeds in this goal in Treacherous Alliance, in which he discusses the relationship between the three. ... read full story / add a comment

" Yet we have an understanding with the weather:
Whenever squalls end and sun returns with
Friendly fire, we would forgive it anything"

(From 'Skywriting' )

'Reality Check' was launched on the Fourth of September 2007 in the Royal College of Surgeons
and it was nice to see the luminaries and the establishment having to queue and snake through
the room to get their copy signed (!)

The book is in two sections, the first 17 short poems and series ;and the second is a beautiful
long poem called 'Skywriting' which is all about light and the sun threading his way over
our Irish map.

An International week in solidarity with Iranian Workers is being organised for November 24-30, 2007. This action is support of the Iranian People and against the Capitalist Iranian Government but is also against the US Capitalist Warmongers.

The recent wave of oppression against activists of workers' organizations in Iran and other social movements is not a new incident but a routine practice of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI). This wave of repression nevertheless has caused the radicalization and development of class-based labour protests. These conditions have jeopardized the entirety of Islamic Republic of Iran. Social and economic crises are rapidly escalating. It is a proven fact that the promises of the capitalist regime of Iran are false and that this regime has brought nothing but the continuous oppression of working people. This regime has caused ever-increasing poverty and misery for working class. ... read full story / add a comment
