Women are being told it's "uncool" and "Republican" to have a boyfriend, with some even cropping out their partners' heads on holiday snaps. This is not going to help the birth rate or women's happiness, says Joanna Gray.

Trust in the BBC has been collapsing for years. For many, it finally died during Covid when the national broadcaster took on the role of chief cheerleader for the lockdowns, no dissent allowed. A reckoning is long overdue.

It's been a very long time since the BBC even pretended to be impartial on climate change, says Chris Morrison. The truth is, decades of crying 'Fire!' in the climate theatre have left the BBC with net zero credibility.

COP30 is Trump's Eisenhower moment, says Dr Tilak Doshi. Just as Eisenhower's Suez intervention ended Europe's pretensions to empire, Trump's energy realism is ending Brussels's grandiloquent claims to climate leadership.

Dublin – Public Meeting: ‘Palestine, Israel & the EU’ with author David Cronin

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Monday July 18, 2011 17:12author by Kev - IPSC Report this post to the editors

Come along to this important public meeting with Irish journalist and author David Cronin to find out more about the ways in which the European Union aids the Israeli occupation of Palestine and associated human rights abuses.

The meeting will be chaired by Dr. David Landy of the IPSC, academic in Trinity College Dublin and author of the new book Jewish Identity and Palestinian Rights: Diaspora Jewish Opposition to Israel.

The meeting takes place on Tuesday 26th July, at 7.15pm in The Pearse Centre, 27 Pearse Street, Dublin 2 (aka The Ireland Institute).

Entry is free, all welcome.

In official statements, the EU presents itself as an honest broker in the Middle East. In reality, however, the EU and its member states have been engaged in a process of accommodating the Israeli occupation of Palestine. A recent agreement for “more intense, more fruitful, more influential co-operation” between the EU and Israel has meant that Israel has become an EU member state in all but name.

However, rather than using this relationship to pressure Israel to end its human rights abuses, the EU has legitimised actions such as the ill-treatment of prisoners and the Gaza massacre, while granting the Apartheid State preferential trading status and funding opportunities, and purchasing military items ‘battle-tested’ on the Palestinian people. The Greek government’s grounding of Freedom Flotilla II is just the latest outcome of this increasingly close “special relationship”.

David Cronin is the author of the explosive book Europe’s alliance with Israel: Aiding the Occupation, a journalist with many online and print publications, and the man who has attempted to make citizen’s arrests of both Tony Blair and Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman.
