"The allegation was key for the US, however, as it would, if true, be an excuse for the major missile defense deployments in Europe, nominally aimed at Iran but far outside their known missile range. This would have ideally placated Russia and given the US another excuse to rail against Iran. Or it would, if it was actually true." read full story / add a comment

Shocking reading: Wikileaks document on Shannon:
Government wanted to be seen to be hard on the US to win votes in 2007 General election.
US government considered handing the Irish Government the bill for the plane damaged by the 'Shannon Five'.
Repost this to expose the shame of the Irish Government's complicity in the transport of war munitions and prisoners en route to US detention facilities.

The latest leaks from Wikileaks offer proof for what many have suspected for a long time - that American embassies are little more than fronts for the activities of the CIA and other US spying agencies .
Patrick Martin , reviewing the latest batch of wikileaks in light of the terrorist murder two days ago of another Iranian nuclear scientist , writes that US embassies have been instructed to focus their espionage activities on plans for the overthrow of the present Iranian regime.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sees the anti-Iran propaganda and Islamophobia as having paid dividends for the zionists . Martin quotes Netanyahu saying :
“Our region has been hostage to a narrative that is the result of 60 years of propaganda, which paints Israel as the greatest threat. In reality leaders understand that that view is bankrupt. For the first time in history there is agreement that Iran is the threat.” read full story / add a comment

Bertie Ahern in corporate takeover of Ireland’s Woodlands?
Reclaim our natural Resources
Time for a new Land League?

This is a short briefing regarding the ongoing privatisation of Coillte. It needs to be considered in conjunction with the theft of our other resources, including but not limited to oil and gas, water, minerals, fish, seeds and various utilities. I have done as much research into it as I am able for the time being. I hope others will be able to take up the baton and go deeper with a view to developing strategies to counter this. Please pass it this info on to relevant people.

In releases giving to the media on the 28th of November, in which Road Tax was discussed,
Minister Brian Dempsey's tone suggested that the Road Tax exemption, that allows people to take their car off the road, was being used willy - nilly by people who had left the country for a period of time and then returned to start re-using the vehicle.
This is a pure distortion of the facts, if not a complete lie, and has to be challenged, even if is only for the sake of correction.
