The New York Times Bestseller list is "pure propaganda", says Elon Musk. The newspaper even admitted in court it is "editorial content", not factual. But what about the Sunday Times version? Steven Tucker investigates.

"The problems with aspartame include not only the biochemical nature of this toxin but also it sheds light on the political nature of the players involved. The changes in regulatory policies and regulations resulting from corporate-government ties and the politicians closely associated with these ties. What I can tell you, regarding toxicology, histology and biochemistry, is that aspartame is neurotoxic. Its components easily transcend the blood-brain barrier, interfering with normal nerve cell function. This affects the glutathione and calcium mechanisms in place, destroying nerve call integrity. The methanol then breaks down into formaldehyde-formic acid components, which denaturizes/mutates the DNA: a known scientific fact. The subsequent result from this interaction and from isolates of genetically modified amino acids, the methanol, is nerve cell necrosis and subsequent organ system degradation"

This essay argues that the conflict in the Persian Gulf is conditioned by the needs of American capitalism, and thus whether a Democrat or a Republican, a war hero or a draft dodger, sits in the Oval Office, it will make no difference to the propensity of the American state to commit acts of mass violence. An argument which is held up as a true by the record of Clinton, a man who recently received adulation in Dublin, yet whose administration slew far more than that of either Bush Snr. or Jnr. read full story / add a comment

Racism is alive and well in Ireland. Only the very dishonest or the very naďve can deny it. We all knew it was bad, we only had to listen to our friends, neighbours and workmates. We only had to look at how generations of Travellers were treated. But the result of the citizenship referendum really opened our eyes to how widespread it is. read full story / add a comment

Much debate has been taking place over the last few days regarding the success, or not, of the occupation of the department of education on Tuesday. By engaging in an occupation we are taking a particular stance. It is a form of direct action which means that the action has a direct effect on the people involved. You take a stance, issue demands, and do not move until those demands are met or you are forcibly removed. If your demands are met you have been victorious if you are removed the fight moves to another day but the victory lies in the fact that you have shown an unflinching belief in your tactics and what you stand for and a commitment to continue to bring the fight to the powers that be. Anything less is a failure. As such the occupation of Tuesday last was, in this regard a failure. read full story / add a comment

When a state is determined to pursue war, and all forms of indirect symbolic protest actions have failed to sway politicians to halt their imperialist aggression, the only remaining option is direct action by the working class. One option is a general strike by workers that can effect the production and transpiration of military capital, that is the materials essential for the war machine. The other is to deprive the military of the labor it needs to fight the war. read full story / add a comment

How can I work for a multinational corporation during the day, and still call myself in good conscience an anarchist because of the work I do in my spare time? Someone asked this question here the other day and it was removed before I could hit "post comment" with my follow-up... hopefully this one won't get the chop so fast. :-) read full story / add a comment
