down with the racist pig power structure
Me, Myself, and I
I'm just a Newbridge boy
Raised on RTE
And I've seen all those kids
In the Vodafone ads
But none of 'em looked like me
So I started lookin' around
For a light out of the shit
And the first thing I heard that made sense
Was the word of the NLF, peace be upon them

  • IPSC National Demo - Free Gaza: Stop the Slaughter! End The Siege!

    The Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign has called a National Demonstration in solidarity with Gaza for this Saturday 3rd January. The protest will begin with speeches at 1pm at the Central Bank Plaza on Dame Street (Dublin), we will then march to the Dail (Kildare Street), the EU Offices (Molesworth Street), and finish up with a rally at the Spire on O'Connell Street - which will feature a live phone-link to Gaza. The slogan we will be moibilising around is simple "Free Gaza: Stop the Slaughter! End the Siege!"

    The death toll in Gaza now stands at over 360 with countless more injuries, and the Israeli Government has vowed "long weeks of action" in the area, with the likelihood of of a full ground invasion. We in Ireland must take action to oppose the ongoing brutal assault on a defenceless people - the IPSC is calling on all political parties, civil society groups, trade unions, and ordinary people to build and mobilise for Saturday's demo.

    Furthermore, on Tuesday morning, it is reported that an Israeli patrol boat rammed the Free Gaza Movement boat the SS Dignity which was bringing three tons of medical aid and medical experts to Gaza. The boat - flying the flag of Gibraltar - was in international waters and, according to a CNN journalist that was aboard, it was rammed without warning. The boat began taking on water, and is now slowly making its way to the safety of Lebanon.

    What you can do:

    1. Encourage as many members of your political organisation, trade union, civil society or community group etc as possible to attend.

    2. Encourage your friends and family to come along.

    3. Advertise the demo on your website, mailing list(s), social networking sites, internet forums or any other online outlets.

    4. If you work or have contacts in the media, please try to use your influence to advertise the demo via any medium. The IPSC can provide interviewees if needed (contact 01 6770253).

The crossing has been closed for over 40 days.

  • Dublin: IPSC National Rally and Public Meeting commemorating the Balfour Declaration

    Dublin: IPSC National Rally and Public Meeting commemorating the Balfour Declaration

    Rally @ 2pm, British Embassy, Ballsbridge, D4 / Meeting: 3.30pm, Mount Herbert Hotel, Sandymount, D4

    The IPSC is holding a picket and rally at the British Embassy (followed by a public meeting in the Mount Herbert Hotel) in Ballsbridge on the 1st Novemeber. The aim of this event to highlight the role of British Imperialism in the partition of Palestine, and its collaboration with the Israeli occupation and the crimes and abuses of the Israeli State ever since.

    Speakers at the event will be Professor Ilan Pappe (Israeli historian of the Nakba), Anaheed al-Hardan (Palestinian Academic specialising in refugee studies), Jeremy Corbyn MP (British Labour Party and patron of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign in Britain) , Professor Mahmoud Muhareb (Political science professor in Al-Quds University and member of the Arab Balad Party in Israel), Aengus Ó Snodaigh TD (Sinn Fein spokesperson on Foreign Affairs) and a speaker from the British PSC.

    On 2nd November 1917, in furtherance of its imperial ambitions in the Middle East, the British Government under Lloyd George made a promise to the Zionist Federation that it would 'establish a national home for the Jewish people' in Palestine. This promise, contained in a letter sent by Lord Arthur Balfour, the Foreign Secretary, to Baron Rothschild, was made without consulting the people of Palestine who hoped for independence from the imperial powers. It came to be known as the 'Balfour Declaration'.

    Balfour, a Tory grandee, was a suitable envoy. As Secretary of State for Ireland he had long opposed Home Rule. These imperial efforts to frustrate the colonised peoples of Ireland and Palestine would yield the same tragic results for both: conflict, suffering and Partition. A bitter legacy remains to this day especially for the colonised people of Palestine whose very survival seems a matter of indifference to the powerful.

    In this 60th Nakba commemoration year, the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign wishes to publicly indict British colonial policy as the root cause of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. We will therefore hold a symbolic picket of and rally at the British Embassy in Dublin on Saturday 1st November, anniversary of the Balfour Declaration. Speeches by prominent political figures in support of this will then be held in a nearby hotel. Please join us on the day.

Irish heroes


you are-------->James connolly

If anything matters to you its the welfare of weaker people, you are always worried about people less fortunate than you. When someone says something and you do not agree you will let them know. when you get an idea you see it through to the very end. Although this is not a bad thing it can be sometimes.

    Hey Kev, just wondering if you still have a hard copy of the Issues Ireland edition featuring the Mumia protest? I purchased a copy (and included, by my poor standards, a fairly sizeable donation) but my housemates threw it out by mistake. If you still have it, could i photocopy it?

    *New Song!*

    The Good Ship Moo Ship

    Breath-taking musical maturity is not a
    phrase often associated with Notorious Goose.

    Notorious Goose bid you come sail
    aboard the Good Ship Moo Ship,
    where communism rules the waves,
    and Brittania waives the rules.
