offsite link Keir Starmer?s Anti-Israel Policies Are Now No Different to Jeremy Corbyn?s Tue Jul 30, 2024 13:00 | Will Jones
Unlike Jeremy Corbyn, Keir Starmer has never described Hezbollah as his friends. But other than that, when it comes to Israel there is now little of consequence to differentiate them, says Stephen Pollard.

Is the 'Muslim vote' set to abandon Labour? With three quarters of British Muslims refusing to believe Hamas committed atrocities on October 7th, it's hard to see how Labour can retain them, says Frank Haviland.

Bridget Phillipson is wrong about the Higher Education Freedom of Speech Act she has just torpedoed, says Oxford law academic Dr Julius Grower. It won't increase legal action for universities but will ease it.

offsite link No, Ed Miliband Does Not Have a ?Mandate? for His Net Zero Lunacy Tue Jul 30, 2024 07:00 | Ben Pile
With swivel-eyed zeal, Ed Miliband has been telling broadcasters he has a "mandate" to deliver his unworkable and unaffordable Net Zero agenda. Not when just 20% of the public voted for you, says Ben Pile.

Dodgy plane takes flight when search requested

category clare | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Sunday September 14, 2008 19:01author by J. Jefferies Report this post to the editors

A Gulfstream V executive jet came under suspicion today at Shannon airport when local activists Edward Horgan and Tim Hourigan along with others in Shannon for today's monthly Torture Watch exercise spotted the aircraft with no markings other than its registration number

It has been ascertained that the twin-jet aircraft was on its way from Shannon to Teterboro, New Jersey. It is not known at this time where the plane was before it came to Shannon.

N5GV is registered to Wilmington Trust Company of Wilmington, Delaware, USA. This company's name has come up previously in relation to rendition flights. In March of this year the Slovak Spectator claimed that an aircraft connected with Wilmington Trust and which had landed at Bratislava airport was working for the US Central Intelligence Agency. At the time a journalist Jan-Petter Helgesen, the journalist who covered the story said: - "The owner of the plane [Wilmington] is a private company that works very closely with the CIA."

see report: http://www.spectator.sk/articles/view/31047/2/cia_uses_....html

Seasoned Shannon watcherd Edward Horgan and Tim Hourigan became suspicious of the plane and asked gardaí on the scene to search the plane which they are entitled to do under international law. Within moments of their request the plane's cabin door closed and it prepared for take-off. It was gone within minutes.

Tim or Edward will be giving follow-up information later this evening.
