Amnesty International's annual report on the use of the Death Penalty has been published today, and serves a reminder that China, Iran and the USA continue to execute the most of their prisoners. Our global western project of liberty it appears is led by the state that has executed the most kids. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4As we all know executions don't happen in Ireland or her neighbour the UK.
But I want to add these three names to the list :-
In May 2005, the ERU (Garda emergency response unit) killed two civilians described as "career criminals" after a raid on a post office, arising concern that this demonstrated a "shoot to kill" policy under the minister of justice Michael Mc Dowell's "operation Anvil".

On July 22nd a Brazilian man, Juan Charles de Menezes was shot dead at Stockwell Tube station in London. There has yet been a proper explanation.
& lest anyone forget, here as on indymedia UK, the sad and sorry affair was recorded
Police shoot man dead on London Tube. "suspicious" (here coverage began from 12h00 onwards)
http://indymedia.ie/article/71065
it makes some reading, considering the manipulation and lies later uncovered.

Moroccan born French citizen faces -
death penalty or life imprisonment .........................................................or acquital.
ok acquital is silly.
very silly.
"HEY DUDE! we know it was faked, we don't want you to be the only person in the USA To take the rap! we're happy with enough with expensive oil, thousands of deaths in Iraq & Afghanistan and destabilised world, and over 500 nobodies in Guantanamo. Go home now! write your biog! have a nice day!"

the verdict to be read at 9.30pm british time!
Zacarias Moussaoui has been awaiting an overdue verdict coz its now 21h44 irish time which for all intensive purposes is the same as British time.
Maybe the judge is tired.........................
in a small way that is US history.
it was all a fake
A jury and court with the power to impose the death penalty did not.
Iraqi's & Afghani's died instead
I may not even speculate at how much a barrel of Oil will be valued when he ends his days.
we can all sleep safe in our beds. a message has been sent to the evildoers
That constitutes a breach of international human right legislation to which Ireland is a signatory at both UN and Council of Europe level.
That will go into the 2006 report.
If the press are not allowed access to monitor the events that led up to that breach of Human Rights comitments by the Irish State-
That will go in the 2006 Press Freedom Report.
If the Irish state can not remove a group of desperate men from a cathedral within 9 hours, service will not happen in that building for the first time since Oliver Cromwell stabled his horses.
Now even the thickest of us know our "what have the Brits ever done for us Top 10" http://www.langerland.com/content/view/37/59/ & we know that Cromwell was the biggest prick in Europe, a long time ago, before Big Swinging Mickey Mc dowell got upset about black people in Dublin.
Of course not one of us can do anything about it now.
The Department of Justice and Irish State have cut our lines of communication and isolated the spokespeople of the groups & rejected the solution brokered by the Church of Ireland

Its like we can do nothing now to deal with the "n-u-t-t-e-r-s" inside.
Once your Amnesty and Press Freedom Report rankings are lost -
You will not get as much international investment anymore, and you can kiss your hospital beds, free school books and dinners for the kids, and pension funds slán leat
You know who to blame. & this time it aint Oliver Cromwell.
