Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.

For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Nonsense! It was , like the Grand Canyon , formed when the flood subsided approximately 4,500 years ago. The universe itself is only six thousand years old so how could this ice-age have occured 10,000 years ago ? I don't believe that the ice-age ever happened - where is the evidence for it? Certainly not in the Bible.
This piece by Con Connor frankly amazes me. The criticisms he makes about Lismullin Institute, and Opus Dei are inaccurate, poorly informed and in places hysterical. Before writing such loaded accusations as these one would imagine the author would have followed the reasonable approach of asking someone in Lismullin Institute for some information, some real facts, which I would be more than happy to provide. I hope that this is just Con having a bad day and isn't the usual approach in the Druid's school.
you dont understand RC theology. RCs believe that the bible has to interpreted, they dont believe that its the literal truth. thats the word from the vatican anyway. the pontiff keeps a sizeable number of scientists of all hues on his payroll. the vatican observatory is the envy of many astronomers.
All bull.. Another distraction away from the M3. No wonder the campaign is screwed
Hi,
thre is no confusion about the location of Opus Dei's Lismullen Centre in the middle of Tara Valley.
There are there without a doubt - quite a large building complex - opened 2000, cost E10M. There is no confusion about their intended Lecture - "The Gabhra Valley through the Centuries to 2000 AD" as I have got their Spring 2006 Lismullin Heritage Series brochure and I quoted directly from it. There is however some confusion as to the speaker for the lecture. Perhaps some of the 'scholars' who have replied to this article could apply for the job... There is no confusion about Opus Dei as an extreme religious fundementalist secret society who manipulate the system to their controller supremicist agenda.
The new last and the new Pope have both aligned with them - "John Paul II, is especially a friend of Opus Dei. He made the Opus a ``personal prelature'' in 1982 and he beatified Escriva in 1992 ... So either the Opus has already gained so much control over the Catholic Church that they could establish a conservative Pope that they like and influence the advisors around the Pope, or the Pope just did not see all the bad things in the Opus because he is a very spiritual person. However: A lot of people criticised the Catholic Church because they did not speak up against the Nazi government. So the beatification of the Fascist Escriva by the Pope was a very bad signal to the public - instead of asking the victims of the holocaust for forgiveness a Fascist gets beatified." (end quote see link below).
Opus Dei means the work of God, it is not the work of God to destroy ancient and beautiful landscape settings such as the ecological footprint of the Celtic Royal City of Tara. Yet that is what they intend to do. Vast profits along with erasure of Celtic Cultural Icons are their intention. All members of our government and state agencies should have to declare membership of Opus Dei as such membership would automatically compromise their service to the people by a diverted loyalty to a secret organisation.
Just because you cant see certain things does not mean that they are not there - it just means you need to look a little closer and sometimes change the place from where you see. Opus Dei could stop the toll road - the truth is they have guided it and fooled almost everyone.

As a relevant aside, former education minister Michael Woods is a member of Opus Dei.
On his last day in office, he limited the financial liability of the catholic church for abuse in religious institutions to a mere €128m.
The then Attorney-General, Michael McDowell, and his officials were excluded by Woods from two meetings where this sweetheart deal was sorted.
John Purcell, comptroller and auditor general, says that that the institutional abuse compensation bill could ultimately cost the state €1 billion.
This clear example of contempt for those scarred for life by the Catholic church is another example of harmful Opus Dei influence.
A full article by Liam Fay in the Sunday Times on this scandal is at:

Who told you Michael Woods is in Opus Dei? If you can't prove it then you shouldn't go around insulting Opus Dei by claiming he is a member!
See last line of his wiki entry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Woods
But this isn't how this fact is known to me.
From my experience members of Opus Dei are to be found in the courts in Navan and Trim.
That is Judges, probation Officers, social workers etc.
I once asked myself on witnessing their desperate attempts to put me in my box - for being a strong woman and when they could not break me- they managed to make me homeless.
Such desperate actions to keep women down- well at least they tried and I had fun proving they failed.
I dont know much about Opus Dei, but it seems incredible that they should cut off their consideration of the Gabhra Valley just at the point when it is most in danger from money grubbing Gombeens. Surely, the planned destruction of this valley is the only topic really worthy of your attention at this point in time. The Catholic Church failed the Irish people over the last few centuries, when it helped in the destruction of the Irish language, condemned Irish patriots and openly collaborated with the English occupation of our country. I had hoped that the Catholic Church, indeed all Christian Churchs, would come out strongly against the Gombeen vandalism at Teamhair, specially given the importance of Tara in the story of St. Patrick. But, sadly, it seems, the so called Christian Churches (most of whom are actually embarrassed by the message of Christ), still know which side their bread is buttered on.
