Text of the page (random words):
law mechanisms are in place to ensure that there would be a proper investigation and that there would be accountability for the npa actions it is not surprising too that the armed forces of the philippines says that the npa checkpoint was done because of the alleged refusal of mayor guingona to pay campaign fees to the npa this is meant to make the incident appear as a case of plain extortion detached from the bigger picture which is the ongoing civil war and the stalled peace negotiations between the gph and ndfp the afp should top using the incident to draw attention away from the many unresolved human rights violations linked to the military such as the abduction of jonas burgos karen empeno and sherlyn cadapan and the murder of labor leader rolando olalia and his driver

chrp on the latest harassment of aid and humanitrian workers and human rights investigators by the 67th infantry battalion of the armed forces of the philippines afp close to 70 members of the national humanitarian and fact finding mission nhffm were left stranded on the night of april 20th in baganga davao oriental after two days of military harassment by the 67th infantry battalion ib of the armed forces of the philippines afp the nhffm which includes human rights organizers nuns union leaders and church workers was in the region to provide humanitarian assistance due to the ravages of typhoon pablo and to also investigate human rights violations by the afp and the killing of christina jose a local leader of barug katawhan despite evidence provided by the organizers church workers nuns union leaders and journalists on the ground the spokesperson for the 67th ib lt col krishnamurti mortela denied that there was any harassment of the humanitarian and human rights workers and that they were dismayed over the fact that they were holding an independent investigation of jose s murder instead of cooperating with the military and local authorities the intransigence and bravado of mortela is out of this world exclaimed estanislao he either has completely lost his mind or is spinning a web of lies that is enveloping himself in no way has the military helped in the investigation for the nhffm especially when they themselves are the main culprits in these violations and when they are the main suspects in the assassination of christina jose they have done everything in their power to keep this humanitarian and fact finding mission from happening also to suggest that the nhffm cooperate with the perpetrators of human rights violations is ludicrous continued estanislao of course they would have a separate independent investigation into the spate of killings and human rights violations that have been going on recently since that will be the best way in finding the truth any investigation by the police or military would become a complete whitewash comments off on sf chrp blasts afp for harassing humanitarian and human rights organizers from

sinn fein fianna fáil leader micheál martin speaking on sunday at the party s 1916 commemoration claiming that his party was the true party of republicanism photo by cyril byrne irish times the leader of fianna fail micheal martin in a speech commemorating the 1916 easter uprising in dublin attacked the provisional movements historical role in trying to break british imperialism s stranglehold on ireland by claiming they had sullied republicanism the irish times reported mr martin asserted that if people wanted to know where the men and women of 1916 would have stood in later years they would find out by looking at what they did taking the route of constitutional republicanism the speech and its focus on sinn féin was received as an effort by fianna fáil to assert its republican credentials against a party which has posed an increased electoral threat in the south now i m no fan of the current state of the provisionals and of their leadership whom i consider to be in bed with the british administered statelet of northern ireland more on that later but for fianna fail to attack the provisionals in their historical role up upholding revolutionary republicanism is both morally and intellectually bankrupt and utterly laughable fianna fail using the guise of constitutional republicanism completely capitulated to the interests of the irish and british capitalist class by turning their backs on the 1916 easter proclamation and of the 1919 dail eireann many of those who had joined fianna fail were from the privileged class and had been part of ira units and councils during the war for independence that routinely would take the sides of land lords and local businessmen against the starving masses of the irish people this was also the party that had outlawed the true army of the people for ireland and for republicanism the ira which was seeking to revolutionize in certain ways an irish society that was experiencing british occupation in the north and colonization in the guise of the free state this was the same group of traitors that allowed the british to withdraw from the south of ireland in order to occupy the north and terrorize the irish there this was also the same party that took up reactionary and conservative economic policies that harmed the poor the working class and the small farmers and also routinely bowed down to the will of the reactionary catholic hierarchy this was also the party that interned dozens upon dozens of ira members in the 1940s in deplorable internment camps and prisons and let a number of them die on hunger strike indeed it was not thatcher that first let the blood of irish hunger strikers in a divided ireland drip from her hands but fellow irish of the irish free state i would argue that the provisionals helped reinvigorate republicanism by asserting the right of an occupied broken and oppressed people to stand up for themselves and to fight back against the british who had used the north as their cheap source of industrial labor and had created a neo colony in the south in order to keep a capitalist stranglehold on the irish people of course the provisionals completely abandoned republicanism by suspending a just war against the british and by allowing themselves to recognize the irish free state as legitimate and by also enmeshing themselves in the british administered government in stormont through the good friday agreement the capitulation of the provisionals to the irish state even claiming the army of the republic as the true army of republicanism instead of the ira and to the right of britain to occupy the north is essentially no different from what fianna fail did 90 years ago in fact t his is something reporter harry mcgee noted in the irish times provisional sinn fein is on a long term upward trajectory it s not even or all that quick as the meath east byelection and the flatline election of 2007 remind us will the aspiration of a united ireland fade as it did for fianna fáil will the party s self styled brand of pragmatic realistic left wing republicanism be enough to allow it capture the citadel in the south as it did in the north

usa a u s navy sailor passes by a sign at the u s detention center for enemy combatants on september 16 2010 in guantanamo bay cuba photo by john moore getty images human rights watch is reporting
