The US Supreme Court ruled today that Guantanamo Bay detention/torture centre was illegal (by implication) and the kangaroo military commission established to try the detainees is in breach of the Geneva Convention, well duh! Expert international lawyers stated the plain facts – illegality – of the matter from the start. Who could accuse the ‘slow to see daylight’ US court system of bias? Surely the principal pillars of American ‘justice’ could not be influenced by Bush or his neo-cons? read full story / add a comment

"Practically all commanders and intelligence officers considered that 90 per cent of the people were Sinn Féiners or sympathisers with Sinn Féin, and that all Sinn Féiners were murderers or sympathisers with murder. Judged by English standards, the Irish are a difficult and unsatisfactory people. Their civilisation is different and in many ways lower than that of the English. They are entirely lacking in the Englishman's respect for truth . . . Many were of a degenerate type and their methods of waging war were in the most case barbarous, influenced by hatred and devoid of courage." British intelligence assessment of the Irish People from The Record of the Rebellion Steven King's review of 'The Wind that Shakes the Barley' contains many contentious allegations. Perhaps the most extreme is that "many a Cork Protestant was murdered in pure sectarian reprisals" during the War of Independence. King attempts to portray in Cork a mirror opposite of the sectarian cauldron created by Unionism in the North of Ireland. This depiction could not be further from the truth. Evidence suggests that Protestants lived more in fear of Crown Forces reprisal than of IRA action. This was true of Protestant unionists as well as Protestant nationalists. In July 1920 Mr J.W. Biggs, a wealthy Unionist, wrote: "I feel it my duty to protest very strongly against this unfounded slander (of intolerance on the part) of our Catholic neighbours ... I have been resident in Bantry for 43 years, during 33 of which I have been engaged in business, and I have received the greatest kindness, courtesy, and support from all classes and creeds in the country". Some days after publication of these remarks Mr Biggs' business premises, valued at £20,000, were burnt down by the RIC. read full story / add a comment

The Australia media has exploded with stories of sexual abuse in remote aboriginal communities. This article deals with the question of why now. This is not to deny the abuse - friends who work in these communities confirm the abuse - it's a matter of why the sudden interest by the media. Incidentally, the biggest abusers of aboriginal women and children are the cops, as you might expect. Just last week Western Australian cops used pepper spray to "subdue" a 10 year old Aboriginal girl read full story / add a comment

Michael Mc dowell wants an all party Dáil discussion on the use of force by people to protect thier homes from intruders. His comments were made public today in response to a story doing the rounds that FG leader Enda Kenny warded off two drugged up muggers who were about to knife him. Not to be outdone, big swinging Mickey has at last revealed the "poker wielding incident" when at age 19 he held a burglar to his parents house with a poker. Its part of a PD / FG exchange of little real worth which continues their implosion strategy as transfer of power. Until of course you see the subtle shift in our national narrative from Shakespearian drama, ( the black / white analogies of Othello & Titus Andronicus [ general Titus on his 38th day but really focussing his ire on the Labour party) to the dramatic works of Christopher Marlowe, the life of Edward 2nd and its introduction of "pokers" into the Western Armoury, remembering that real men used swords and halbards back then. & then of course the memorable "poker wielding incident" between Witgenstein and Popper. read full story / add a comment

The Zionists in Washington (Perle, Wolfowitz etc) have the entire Bush regime distracted. While America fights all of Israel’s major wars in the Middle East – to no advantage whatsoever for America – the most strategically important regions in the world are left to other nations. As world power shifts inexorably eastward, to China, America is at a loss to meet the challenges of the future. read full story / add a comment
