Profiles In Hypocrisy: George W. Bush - Kissing the Blarney Stone and Blair's Backside Maitiu Caomhánach If Machiavelli was to meet Pinocchio in some sort of cosmic clash, what might the encounter produce? My considered opinion is that the scene might look like the three-ringed circus that performed Tuesday April 8th at Hillsborough Castle in Dublin?err, Belfast?Ireland?err, Northern Ireland?

Easter Statement from Republican POWs, Maghaberry prison April 20, 2003 We, the Republican Prisoners in Maghaberry prison send revolutionary and Easter greetings to the true and faithful Republicans who are gathered all over Ireland at the graves of our patriot dead. You are here today and here as Republicans to honour our dead, Ireland's dead, on the 87th anniversary of 1916 when Ireland through armed rising saw her people get off their knees and face the might of England, never to go down on her knees again. There is little doubt that there are ex-Republicans who seek only to sit in the unionist seat of power at Stormont, or in a Free State set-up. These ex-comrades would be very happy to see out people, our country, back on their knees, they would see no sin in this. But we say to them, to the Brits, Free State and anyone else who would sell the All-Ireland Republic short: we are off our knees and off our knees we'll stay. You, the true and faithful Republicans, know that the struggle will go on, you know the odds we face, we are the few but are more the better for being just that. Here in the prisons, Republican POWs carry on the struggle, the regime still carries on their policy of criminalisation. We the Republican POWs will not be criminalised; we will see our prison struggle through and will see political status return as a right for all POWs. In conclusion we would point out, in case there are those who don't know it yet, revolutionaries who become part of the very system they once struggled against are counter-revolutionaries and should be seen as nothing else. You can't break the will of the Irish people to be free. Tiocfaidh Ár Lá. -- CIRA POWs, Maghaberry prison Comments: Google It! 7:57:38 AM
