US Govt has ordered US airlines to dispatch 18 passenger jets to help with evacuating US/Afghan allies. Vietnam…when do we learn intervention wars as predatory westernised supremacists do not work? Recommend youtube Robert Fisk RIP but a journalist who knew what the Middle East was about and the priority being Justice not necessarily Democracy as dictated by the US and UK.

US airlines to dispatch 18 passenger jets to help with evacuating US/Afghan allies… awesome. This this sounds familiar. Thank you @JoeBiden@POTUS@SecDef#kabulhttps://nytimes.com/2021/08/22/world/afghan-refugees-commercial-airlines.html...

COVIDIOTS: Sweden opted for economics and didn’t have a full-scale lockdown. What can we learn as the UK opened with Freedom Day, and as European rows back on protocol. Israel was to the forefront with vaccines. They traded extra information for research into vaccines and received their supply ahead of all others. Now there are “vaccine breakthroughs”. Ireland has become lax. We are a success in the provision and acceptance of vaccine uptake but we still are not adhering to the “Restrictions” necessary to go side by side with the vaccine. What can learn from Sweden – Dr Tegnell.

h –> Last year Republicans held up Sweden’s state epidemiologist, Anders Tegnell, as a paragon of common sense. They aren’t crowing about Tegnell’s approach any longer now that people in his country are dying at a much greater rate than in...

Last night, as in most nights, my partner and I go for a drive especially during this pandemic; we find it calming. The scenes last night in the City were nothing short of appalling especially with not a squad car in sight. We drove through most of South Dublin, through Baggot Street, the canal, Rathmines, Ringsend but the worst area by far was Camden Street. With night camera in hand there was in my humble opinion at least 2,000 people standing outside pubs on the path but also on the road, with pints and glasses, in their hands. Traffic was mainly taxis could hardly pass through the throngs of people. Of course I feel sorry for the Gardai; it is a very thankless job but last night it was obvious that one wrong word, one over Zealous cop and a massive riot was likely to happen so maybe the Gardai stayed away under orders. Yet, some southside squad cars have time to follow people who are just out for a drive. I have said this before and I won’t say it again. Viewing the crowds last night this COVID-19 variant called Delta will spread like wildfire. Dr Holohan CMO has also put on record that the gathering of the 48,000 in Croke Park for the Hurling Final is a worrying situation. We could be into a fifth wave. What we do not want in Ireland is for another mutation/variant but to be sourced here.
