As defenders of free speech we resent Britain's draconian hate speech laws. But until they're repealed they should be applied impartially ? and that means prosecuting antisemitic rappers too, says Laura Perrins.

Why is Skeptical Inquirer Never Sceptical About Climate Change? Wed Jul 02, 2025 07:00 | Steven Tucker
US popular science magazine Skeptical Inquirer prides itself on putting science before dogma. Why then is it fully signed up to the regime consensus on Magical CO2 and its super-heating properties, asks Steven Tucker.

The Sheer Bad Craziness of UK Immigration Law Tue Jul 01, 2025 19:30 | Dr David McGrogan
A sensible country does not seek to 'manage' foreign sex offenders and drug traffickers 'in the community', says Dr David McGrogan. It ejects them. It's well past time UK law were changed to make this absolutely clear.

There's an Irish mirror of Wikileaks at http://wikileaks.prometheus.ie/ and an article on the same site calling for independent tribunals to investigate both the allegations surrounding Assange and the possibility of US-Swedish collusion: http://prometheus.ie/content/investigating-assange-swed...e-law.
It takes the wonders of the world wide internet to explore / out , the truth ..
Whether we like it or not this is the future of ' Whistleblowing ' .
This is our window to the world , respect it & respect the people who dare to reveal the truth .
Heres a grain of salt for stirring through.

For an example of the spin applying, and selective concentration, compare the attention to hearing Adams denying prior knowledge of the Northern Bank job(nano compared to the southern bank-job) with the almost universal elision of the communications between the Roman Sanhedrin and our resident IMaFFia.
The media remain the masseurs. Tabhair aire. Bi curamach. Or as the Piraha say, dont sleep, there are snakes.
Do u mean the Anglo Irish Bank job Opus?
thats what I meant.
But now that you ask, you could throw in the blood bank(remember that one), the sell out of the Porcupine Bank and our fisheries for the CAP in hand agri-business lobby, de boy from de banks of our own luvly Lee who stood idly wringing his hands as Israel shredded our travel documentation for its assassination terror policies and muttered when Zion attacked Irish aid on the way to Gaza.......the offshore bankers of looted profits from privatised industries built with taxpayers' investment, the homeless on the canal banks and the banked up anger of those of us sick of the mealy-mouthed spindustrial revolutionaries infesting what passes for democratic debate on this lump of rock ....the use of our civilian air facilities on the banks of the Shannon to support the premeditated (and escalating without any lessons being drawn)mercenary resource wars in the oil reservoir....
But lets just leave at Anglo. I'm probably off-topic already.
Totally overlooked the earlier precedent when we(in de gnash-nail interest)taxpayers bailed out the vatican bank to compensate the paedophile criminals and their aiders and abettors. Michael Woods, take a bow.
Not only do we pay for white-collar criminals crimes, we are so forgiving(now which stone did we lick that one off?)we continue to tolerate the clerical-collared vampires.
Must be cos we're all in it together, and we cant have blame games for the pillars of our sick little island. I think I'll join Paisley's gang.

Protect Assange, Don’t Abuse Him

"Guardians of women’s rights" in the British liberal press have rushed to condemn the WikiLeaks founder. In fact, at every turn in his dealings with our justice system, his basic human rights have been breached

The Empire On The Prisoners' Dock
By Fidel Castro
Julian Assange, a man who was known by very few people in the world a few months ago, is showing that the most powerful empire that ever existed in history can be challenged.
The daring challenge was not coming from a rival superpower; from some State with more than a hundred nuclear weapons; from a group of nations with enormous natural resources, something the United States cannot do without; or from a revolutionary doctrine capable of shaking the foundations of the empire that bases itself on pillage and exploitation of the world.

Having watched the ‘collateral murder”clip of the attack by the yank helicopter gunship crew, I would have thought there was a clear case for murder charges, but no, instead they try to fit up the person who exposed them. Incidentally I notice that coverage of Julian’s ‘legal proceedings’ on our ‘public service’ broadcaster has been limited to put it mildly.

Anonymous urges global protests
A group of self-styled internet freedom fighters have called for a global day of action in protest at attempts to close down Wikileaks.
Anonymous has gained notoriety in recent months for its cyber-attacks on the websites of companies it deems to be anti-Wikileaks.
Now, in a new video posted on its blog, it calls for a series of offline protests.
These are planned for major cities around the world on 15 January.
"The internet needs champions and we will rise...We are Anonymous and so are you. Stand up and fight. Every city, everywhere," the video message said.
