Anti-Anti-Social Behaviours…
Wednesday, 06 August 2008

Dear Editor,
I am writing in response to a news feature on the RTE News on Monday 16th June in relation to anti-social behaviour. I am writing to express my disappointment in the medias continuous portrayal of young people in such negative manner.

 
Middle East
Wednesday, 06 August 2008

Dear Editor,
There has been much frenzied commentary and analysis in the international media, especially business and economics publications, about the possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear sites.

 
Grace under pressure
Wednesday, 30 July 2008

Dear Editor,
Let me preface this by saying I hate hospitals! But this summer due to differing circumstances I have had to bring friends and family on numerous occasions and, yes, I dreaded each visit.

 
Unlikely developed nations will boycott China
Wednesday, 30 July 2008

Dear Editor,
While I agree with Mr Thomas' call for a boycott of the Chinese Olympics and diplomatic sanctions against China for its support of genocide in Sudan and oppression in Tibet and within China itself, it is very unlikely that developed nations will do this. Mr Thomas' stand is just and principled and is supported by the tenets and ideals of democracy, the laws and constitutions of many countries, the doctrines of all the major world religions, and by reason, logic and rationality. So why are countries supporting China when it stands against everything that they stand for? That is the big question.

Cannot alter rules to teach children a lesson
Wednesday, 23 July 2008

Dear Editor
I am writing to you once again in reply to the article in your letters to the editor page on Wednesday 16 July. The article I refer to is indeed the letter from the Barna/Na Forbhacha Community Games Committee, titled 'Politics have no part in Games'.

 
Call to boycott Beijing Olympics
Wednesday, 16 July 2008

Dear Editor
I am calling on Ireland Inc, to boycott the Beijing Olympics, on foot of the news that China is Sudan's Patron. As we all know, upwards of 500,000 people have been murdered by the Janjuweed militia who are under orders from the President of Sudan, Umar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir, who is now wanted by the International Criminal Court, which is investigating this genocide. China has supplied all weapons to Sudan and, as such, China is arming and defending the killers in exchange for oil, which it buys very cheaply from Sudan.

 
Politics have no part in Games
Wednesday, 16 July 2008

Dear Editor,
In reply to the letter dated 9 July, 'Winning at all costs' we would like to bring to your attention some of the inaccuracies reported in Vincent Conway's letter. Community Games PRO, Mr Conway went to some lengths to try to justify their handling of the ongoing controversy in the U-10 football. However, a number of points need clarification.

 
Winning at all costs
Wednesday, 09 July 2008

Dear Editor,
I write to you on an article that appeared in your paper last week relating to community games. The article in question was titled 'Winning at all costs', if I can remember right, and was by John Fallon. This article referred to the Community Games County semi final between Barna/Na Forbhacha and Tuam.
