Trump hosts former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda Al-Jolani to the White House Tue Nov 11, 2025 22:01 | imc
Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.
And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.
In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Sat Nov 01, 2025 00:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.
Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.
In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.
Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

Top Scientists Confirm Covid Shots Cause Heart Attacks in Children Sun Oct 05, 2025 21:31 | imc
A comprehensive study by leading pediatric scientists has confirmed that the devastating surge in heart failure among children is caused by Covid mRNA shots.
The peer-reviewed study, published in the prestigious journal Med, was conducted by scientists at the University of Hong Kong.
The team, led by Dr. Hing Wai Tsang, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, the University of Hong Kong, uncovered evidence to confirm that Natural Killer (NK) cell activation by Covid mRNA injections causes the pathogenesis of acute myocarditis.
Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that restricts the body?s ability to pump blood.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Why was there a protest on the issue of bin charges? That campaign is long over. Why did Joan Collins, SWP/PBPA councillor not organise a protest against the cuts, a current issue, rather than the bin charges which is a defeated campaign? Makes no sense, but does it indicate someone who is out of touch or trying to live off past glories of a campaign unfortuntely which was lost.
Amazed reader, can you explain how a fight for basic justice can ever be deemed to be 'lost'. Stop reading the S/Indo and watching FoxNews.
Campaign is not over and is still alive and well in a number of communities across Dublin. Look if Joan Collins wasn't there the whingers would say she walked away from it. I say fair play to Joan and others who still support communities who are resisting the charge.
And for your information PBPA is involved a huge number of pickets and protests over the budget- so you should have your facts correct first.
PBPA/SWP supporters who wrote replies why are you being dishonest? I don't read the Sunday Independent. I know that the bin charges fight is over because I can see the reality. Apart from some sporadic stunts organised by the likes of Joan Collins, Brid Smith and a few others in the SWP for opportunist electoral reasons there is no longer any active opposition to the bin charges. There is nothing wrong with stating this but there is something wrong with pretending that a genuine active campaign of opposition still exists. The bin charges campaigns all over the country were defeated. Stand on the main streets of Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway and ask 1,000 people in each city about their local campaign against the bin charges. I guarantee you will not meet one single person who is involved in or knows of an active campaign. It is dishonest for you to claim otherwise and it is wrong for people who claim to be left to lie to working class people by claiming there is still a struggle going on. Is PBPA/SWP still calling on people not to pay the bin charges?
I never said that PBPA/SWP hadn't organised token protests outside Tds clinics against the cuts. I said that you had not organised one outside the Dublin city council meeting at which a budget was being passed which included cuts.
Amazed must be blind but there is still an active bin charges campaign in many areas, where many people still refuse to pay their charges. If it wasn't the indo you were reading you certainly have had your head buried firmly in the sand.
I wouldn't describe the protests at TDs clinics token. In one case in artane there has been over 100 people each week at Sean Haughey's clinic.
I wonder when is 'amazed reader' and his organisation's budget protests- please enlighten us so I can be 'amazed' too.
85,000, that is the number I estimate have participated in protests organised by trade unions and serious campaigns against the budget cuts in the last while. 100 at a protest at Sean Haugheys clinic, if there even was that many, is a token protest in comparison, organised to promote your front name PBPA.
I asked you a question. Do the PBPA/SWP still call on people not to pay the bin charges?
We'll try again...How many people were at 'Amazed Reader's budget protest? HOW MANY?
Its an individual's own perception whether 100 at Sean Haughey (and there have been by the way) is a token or sizeable protest. I know lots of teachers and parents who think it was more than a token protest. And your comments are an INSULT to the many trade unionists from INTO, ASTI and TUI who took part in the protest as well as parents and school children.
Again I ask how many were on your organisations budget protest? You are cleverly avoiding this by quoting figures from the INTO national protests and by asking about the swp's line on the bin charges.
Answer the question- it might clear things up for many other amazed readers, dying to hear about your input to budget protests.
I for one say fair play to PBPA, SF and people not alligned to any party or organisation who organised and took part in the picket at Sean Haugheys clinic.
I am involved in a campaign which organised a protest against the over 70s losing their medical cards, 3,500 took part, that is 35 times the size of your picket! Are you still asking people not to pay the bin charges?
