The power outage in Spain and Portugal wasn't caused by extreme weather, but by an over-reliance on wind and solar. If the UK continues on its headlong path to Net Zero, we can expect similar failures.

Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

Spielberg's "Munich," MacDonald's "One Day in September" &

category galway | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Monday January 30, 2006 03:36author by Tommy Donnellan Report this post to the editors

Fadhil's "Fallujah: The Real Story"

Hopefully, better late than never with this one but with the release of Spielberg's controversial "Munich," Neal Ascherson has painted a fair historical backdrop to the events loosely depicted in this film in an article entitled; "A master and the myths of Munich" in The Observer (Sun. Jan 15th, '06) - the documentary that he lauds in his article; MacDonalds "One Day in September" is available for purchase on Amazon.com and Amazon.UK (Region 1 only)

On a different but relevant tack, the Democracy Now website sports the transcript of a live interview with Ali Fadhil, the maker of "Fallujah : The Real Story", this documentary, produced last year by Guardian Films for Channel Four News deals with the wanton destruction of that city by US and Iraqi forces http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=06/01/25/155226

However, the email address that Democracy Now gives for the purchase of this film does'nt work out; GuardianFilms@guardian.co.uk as my email was responded to by ; "Pippa White has finished her contract with Guardian Films, please re-direct your queries to Jacqui Timberlake Tel 02078869310". Tomorrow, hopefully, Jacqui will respond to the message left in her voicemail?.
