First they were 'Asian' grooming gangs, then 'Pakistani'. But the most important thing to grasp is that almost all of them ? 87% of convictions ? are Muslim, says Mark Durie. This must not be covered up.

If the BBC's Standards Committee, which is reviewing the corporation's coverage of climate change, wants a good example of bias, it should take a look at its report of recent floods in Pakistan, says Paul Homewood.

FF prevent enquiry into US use of Shannon

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Thursday February 16, 2006 16:42author by cafe Report this post to the editors

Time to name and shame the FF senators
Fianna Fáil senators have blocked attempts to set up a Seanad investigation into allegations that the US has illegally transported prisoners through Shannon airport for torture elsewhere. Apparently Fianna Fáil senators feared that the creation of a Seanad inquiry would be seen as an unfriendly act by the United States, and possibly threaten the US military's increasingly important use of Shannon International Airport.

Any one interested in naming and shaming the FF senators (especially those who are looking for GE nominations)?
How 'bout writing to local papers to highlight their complicity in the illegal occuapation of Iraq; their willingness to faciliate flights of rendition and their willingness to allow millions of Irish taxpayers money be spent facilitating the use of Shannon airport by US troops
