dublin / bin tax / household tax / water tax / other press Thursday March 08, 2007 15:02 by IMPACT newsreader
During the height of the bin tax battle, Anti-Bin Tax activists argued that the introduction of bin charges would lead to amongst other things, fewer jobs, increase in collection routes for remaining workers, increase in illegal dumping, introduction of private operators and the end of the waiver system. In two articles in the IMPACT news it would seem that the penny has finally dropped there. I post the articles here in full as non-IMPACT members might not get to see these articles. read full story / add a comment

Right-wing Sarkozy (Minister of the Interior), famous for provoking and fanning the riots of 2006 (see http://ie.indymedia.org/article/74925 ) has proposed a new law which would make it illegal for anyone except an accredited journalist to take footage of violence. The irony of the timing has not been lost on many as Tuesday was the anniversary of the Rodney King beating in LA which sparked what locals call the "uprising" and others call the "LA Riots". read full story / add a comment

Once again Iranian women are repressed by the mullahs. For demanding even the most basic of rights they are imprisoned. Women are hanged or stoned to death for adultery or sex outside of marriage.

As International Womens Day approachs, think of the women in Iran who face death at the hands of the mullahs.

The full article is at the url below.

Iran women arrested over protest

Iran's authorities have arrested more than 32 women activists protesting outside a courthouse in Tehran. The protesters were showing solidarity with five women on trial for organising a protest last June against laws they say discriminate against women.

national / environment / other press Tuesday March 06, 2007 12:33 by Shell to Sea   image 1 image
Apologists for Shell in the Corrib Gas dispute often quote the company's assurances on safety as if they were unquestionable. Shell likes to portray itself as a large company with a strong commitment to safety, especially the safety of its workers.

However, continuing judgements against Shell tell a different story, as this Guardian article from yesterday shows. Some commmentators say the dismal safety record of the company shows that there is a policy within Shell of weighing up the potential cost of paying out damages for death or injury against the cost of implementing safety measures. When the former is less than the latter, Shell is prepared to put lives at risk, showing that the company's main concern is its profit margin, and that this comes a long way before woorrying about safety. read full story / add a comment

Prior to the leadership of John Howard and his defence minister, Brendan (studs) Nelson, the Australian Defence Forces always did Australia proud. The reputation of the ADF preceded them in any theatre of war. Aussie fighters were once considered highly specialised and skilled, so it is with a sad heart and severe disappointment that I report the raid on Alfredo Reinado’s hide-out resulted in the needless deaths of four Timorese and a ‘rebel leader’ who easily escaped to the mountains. No one is actually sure Reinado was present at the time of the attack! read full story / add a comment

An Australian son abandoned by the nation and his government has decided to fight the fabricated charges brought against him by the criminal Bush regime. You bloody little bewdy! Against all odds and after years of psychological and physical torture Hicks proves his mettle. The murdering yanks and the slimy Howard government COULDN’T BREAK OUR LITTLE AUSSIE FIGHTER! One can only imagine the forlorn faces of the Howard servile government who no doubt desperately hoped that Hicks would break and accept a plea bargain in time for the elections. The Hicks case as previously stated has all the ingredients to bring down the servile government of John ‘deputy-sheriff’ Howard. read full story / add a comment

After visiting Rossport last year and learning about the Shell to Sea campaign, a friend and I wrote an article for our local press. Here is the final article (http://www.pulsetc.com/article.php?sid=3006) which was published on February 28, 2007 in the "Pulse of the Twin Cities," a weekly paper from Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota, u.s.a.

The article ran in the print issue next to an article about a 300+ mile oil pipeline slated for construction in our state. It appears that Big Oil wants a piece of our backyard too.

Anyone familiar with the criminal tactics of thoroughly corrupt State Institutions would not be surprised to learn of the plea bargain offered Guantanamo Bay detainee, David Hicks. After five years of torture and various other forms of physical and psychological abuse, the U.S. has offered a deal that would see Hicks released from Guantanamo but not necessarily from continued incarceration. read full story / add a comment
