Cluster bombs come in many forms.
Cluster munitions can be delivered using artillery guns, long range rockets and ground attack aircraft.
The cluster munitions are often small bomblets often about the size of a hand grenade packed into large pod.
The pod breaks apart over the target, dispersing the bomblets which can shower an area the size of several football fields.
Their effects on civilians can be devastating. read full story / add a comment

In May 1968, during the Vietnam War ine people walked into a Selective Service Office,
in Catonsville Maryland U.S.A., took hundreds of
draft files from a cabinet, took them outside, doused them with
homemade napalm and burned them in the name of peace. It
raised serious questions about nonviolent resistance to the U.S. war
in Vietnam and initiated a praxis that today engages U.S. wars in Iraq & Afghanistan

Dutch minister Hirsch Ballin wants txt, telephone conversations and emails that people send in the Netherlands and from and to the Netherlands to be kept for 18 months on file instead of the 6 months it is currently kept for. The law on the protection of privacy is outweighed by the need for protection of the state they conclude. The new European law states that the states will have to keep the conversations on file for more than lf a year. Another reason to vote no to the treaty. read full story / add a comment

The propaganda recently launched by the government in support of the new federal EU constitution nicknamed as “Lisbon Treaty”, has failed to actually attach the text of the Treaty to their claims on the treaty. The voters of Ireland will be called to submit their votes on an international treaty that is not available for them as of today, less than a month before the referendum. By not providing information on this fact, the current government campaigns to promote a yes vote on the referendum, amounts to the deprivation of the Irish voters of their most fundamental constitutional-democratic right to fair and free elections.

The article includes a web address from where the consolidated version (the actual text) of the Lisbon Treaty can be downloaded.

Hamid Dabashi, Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature at Columbia University in New York writes on Hillary Clintons outburst regarding Iran in the 8 may issue of al-Ahram.

Hamid writes: The only legitimate manner in which the Islamic Republic can be prevented from becoming a nuclear power is by ensuring that all the other nuclear powers in its neighbourhood engage in regional disarmament, first and foremost the mirror image of the Islamic Republic, the Jewish apartheid state of Israel. The latter is fully supported and sustained by the American Christian Empire, and will be after Senator Golda Clinton Meir possibly becomes its Commander-in-Chief.

The replacement of Bertie "Liar Liar Pants On Fire" Ahern with Brian "Biffo" Cowen has led to a boost in popular support for Fianna Fail.
Sinn Fein the only party who are opposed to the Lisbon Treaty show a worrying decrease in support.
Brian Cowen has come out fighting in the last week trying to persuade the electorate to vote in favour of the Treaty after recent polls showed poor levels of support.
Is Cowen likely to change the opinions of the electorate by transfering a boost in support into support for Lisbon.
It looks dangerously likely read full story / add a comment

Pauline Campbell, who was found dead yesterday morning, put the deaths of women in prison on the map. A formidable and tireless campaigner, she had personal experience of deaths in custody. Just over five years ago, her much-loved daughter Sarah, 18, died of a drug overdose at Styal prison. Campbell's body was discovered close to her daughter's grave in Oakhills cemetery in Malpas, Cheshire. As we went to press, it was not clear whether she had killed herself or died of other causes, but it looks bleak. read full story / add a comment

Speaking at the graves of the leaders of the Easter Rising on Saturday (May 10), éirígí chairperson Brian Leeson called for an honest assessment of the state of radical politics in modern-day Ireland.

“Radical, revolutionary, separatist, republicanism is far weaker now than what it was a decade ago – in both political and organisational terms," Leeson said.

"Acceptance of this fact is the first necessary step in the process of reorganising and re-building a diverse social movement for the combined objectives of British withdrawal and social and economic justice." read full story / add a comment

Applicants for asylum are the latest targets in efforts to quietly legalize imprisonment without trial for people who have never been accused of any wrong. Two EU countries have now followed the lead of the US: where this policy was the first legal stepping stone in the nefarious "rendition" program of kidnapping, imprisonment, disappearance and torture without cause. read full story / add a comment
