This is an important but disturbing video from Portland which shows the way the cops film people in the crowd at demonstrations and go out of their way to zoom in on particular features so as to identify people who are just exercising their democratic rights. They also go out of their way to instruct their camera crews to follow and film anyone who is masked up or covering their face in any way. read full story / add a comment

American fiddle player Geof Bard, a generalist known to appear at an occasional Irish sessions on the US west coast, occasionally attacks a guitar, and has been blasting Blair on the airwaves with his fiddle and this adaptation of WIJ, a tune which is occasionally, erroneously known in the states as "Killkenny Mountain". Wildly popular with Americans, the tune lends itself well to satire. Use at will. First publication worldwide. read full story / add a comment

Did I hear that word again (communist)? The comment/accusation was directed at the Timorese Prime Minister Alkatiri during an Oz ‘newscast’ – certainly puts an interesting slant on the Timor situation! I was reminded of the emerging independence of the Congo and the short life of its charismatic leader, Patrice Lumumba. The intervention of the CIA and the subsequent assassination of Patrice were entirely ‘coincidental’ events! read full story / add a comment

international / anti-war / imperialism / other press Saturday May 27, 2006 10:55 by JIM DEE Daily Ireland USA correspondent
Have you ever been so impressed by a documentary that you’ve recommended it to others? Retired US army colonel Ann Wright did just that on Monday – and was promptly handcuffed for engaging in “seditious” activity.

Wright’s trouble began when she set out to attend the court martial of a soldier accused in the Abu Ghraib prison abused scandal. The 29-year army veteran arrived at Fort McNair in Washington, DC, only to learn that the court martial was being held at Fort Meade in Maryland.

As she was leaving for Fort Meade, she happened upon some anti-war friends at the Fort McNair’s gate who had some postcards advertising a film called “Yes Sir, No Sir!”, which is about American soldiers’ resistance to the Vietnam War. She’d seen the movie and was very impressed, and she felt others in the military might benefit from catching it during its limited engagement in Washington this week.

Last weekend a story broke in the UK, of how a Home office official had offered a speedy asylum process to a Zimbabwean rape victim (18) in return for sex.

Many Irish people might have missed this, being concentrated as they were on asylum seekers in St. Patrick's cathedral, and since then Mc dowell's legal disaster which puts our children at risk and has blown the lid on the judicial treatment of underage sex and the questionable sentances handed down.

The UK story makes an interesting "compare & contrast". read full story / add a comment

It looks as if we will be able to lead the Catholic Church on a merry dance regarding the 'Rhythm Method'. This method, the only one approved by the Vatican may kill off more embryos than other forms of contraception. Pope Benny will not be well pleased. Extract below; full article at the link.

The punk band Zounds sang 'subvert, subvert' about anarchists/working class people infiltrating the middle class domain of work, to change and subvert it.

MI5/6/Special branch have been doing the same in reverse for decades, placing operatives within working class communities and trade unions in order to destroy and subvert whole communities and organisations.

Many of these operatives like Denis Donaldson etc, have blended into and become established within working class commuities for many decades. read full story / add a comment
