On Sunday evening Gardai in Irishtown confirmed that they had the previous day removed an IFPAL referendum sign from a pole close to the Israeli Embassy on Pembroke Road Dublin. The sign read: Following enquiries made to Superintendent Finbar O’Brien from Donnybrook Garda Station yesterday afternoon to find out why Gardai removed the sign, Sergeant Tom O’Sullivan this morning contacted Mr. Clinton and informed him that the sign was being held as “an exhibit” and investigated for “the possibility of the offence of incitement to hatred”. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5The situation for Palestine is extreme at the moment with Israel's corrupt, Quisling thugs in Ramallah, in effect, neutralising Richard Goldstone's report to the UN Council for Human Rights ... the situation is dark indeed and now this obscenity in democracy hugging, humbug Ireland comes to light.
Thanks for illuminating and shaming Israel's, in effect, useful idiots in blue, aiding and abetting the supression of that rogue, criminal State's deep and many crimes against humanity. Thanks, once again, for striving for Palestine.
Haitham, your words strike home, as Mahmoud Darwish would have put it: No dawn for Palestine in a bottomless night howling with white phosphorus and suffering. Abbas, Netanyahu and Obama are watchful and snuff out all light in the darkness of your cellars whilst the world and the EU stands approvingly by.
Palestine Is Still the Issue is a great documentary by John Pilger regarding the conflict between Palestine and Isreal. It is a little out of date now, seen as it was made in 2002 but still worth the watch. One image sticks in my mind from the documentary, two Palestinian prisoners get caught by Isreali soldiers on a hill side and the soldiers break the prisoners arms and legs by reapeatedly striking them with hugh rocks. Quite graphic!!!

John Pilger is one of the best journalists of our times and a fantastic documentary maker!!!

This overt and alarming attempt to suppress IFPAL's laudable attempt to shine a hard, cold and shaming light on Israel's frenzy of butchery in Gaza and beyond over the Xmas period, is not confined to the bailiwick of Donnybrook Garda Station, its carcinogenic tentacles extend much farther in Ireland , I'm afraid, it's just one of many: From Dublin City Corporation's removal of the IFPAL raft sign at the Ha'penny Bridge on the basis that they didn't like its "message" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLhXfybD_4o to the wrongful arrest of an IFPAL activist in Galway by a compliant, idiot Guard at the command of Zionist Jews who were in high, malodorous dudgeon at the "lies" on the IFPAL sign http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch9ORXw8ulw to Willie O'Dea, our manque "Dirty Harry" Minister of Defence who malevolently tried, in vain, to bully Limerick City Council into removing IFPAL's signs in Limerick City and environs on the basis that his office had received "many complaints" over IFPAL's contentions.
The Zionist propaganda machine is in overdriveat the moment to suppress Goldstone's report and, unfortunately, predictably, its useful Pavlovian idiots over here, chaff in its idiot wind, are doing its bidding.?
They cal this the free world. Based on such 'values' as free speech, free association and free expression.
Dare you try anything and it will be met with the force of thr free state...or county council.
Free speech is smothered by RTE, free expression is washed aside by louie walshe and all his adorees, free association is met with un-identifiable gardai in riot gear... and now the Irish states new private army of thugh IIRM.
Its laughable that in Ireland today that the politicians (all of them) are so silent on the real issues such as Israeli, US and UK Genocide. Israel especially..given their horrible history...and Ireland...given ours.
Theres not one of them with the bottle to raise hell in Dail Eireann for fear that the spies...i mean observers in Dail Eireann.. will report immediately to Downing St and The Whitehouse.
Free society.....my arse.
