https://x.com/ezzingaza/status/1924173298080063881I no longer go to the Indonesian hospital. What foolishness it is, to speak of hospitals in a place where life is no longer preserved but merely postponed. Once, I believed, oh, how bitterly I believed, that the presence of a doctor among the dying was a sacred thing, a last stand against the void. But here, where the void has taken residence in the very walls, what can sanctity do? The hospital is surrounded now. Not by men, not by soldiers even, but by machines. Drones, humming above like metallic locusts, devoid of soul or pity. They know neither suffering nor mercy, they are the purest expression of obedience without conscience. They circle the building like vultures circling a carcass not yet dead enough. Two days ago, the ceiling collapsed. A nurse had just spoken the word “hope.” Then came the blast, and the word hung in the air a moment too long before crumbling with the plaster. ICU monitors, those fragile gods of modern faith, shattered on the floor. One machine let out a long, wheezing beep as it died. It was the sound of resignation. I think I wept, but I cannot recall if it was with my eyes or only in my mind. And this morning, yes, this morning, as if dawn itself had become ashamed, a drone struck the intensive care unit. It came like a decision already made. There was no warning, no negotiation, no fate to plead with. Just fire. Patients ran. Doctors ran. The hallway became a river of chaos, but silent, terrifyingly silent. One man dragged his son by the shoulders, blood smearing behind them like a signature of some unseen pact. Another woman collapsed, not from injury but from the sheer weight of choosing which of her children to carry. Two patients were taken away in an ambulance, if that word still means anything. The rest had already passed into that cold stillness we now mistake for peace. We still work at the clinic, though I no longer know if it's from duty or habit, or some grotesque need to perform life while surrounded by death. We whisper. We disinfect. We bind wounds that will open again. The scalpel, once a tool of healing, now feels like an accomplice. At home, the walls speak in cracks. The roof sags under the pressure of memory. The air smells like dust and grief. My mother tapes the broken windows each day with the care of a priest dressing a corpse. My father rations rice with the reverence of a man offering communion. But outside, outside, it never stops. The bombing continues with the faithfulness of a priest at prayer. It does not pause. It does not tire. It beats like a heart possessed by something inhuman. And now, the streets. No, not streets, corridors of exile. Rows of tents like gravestones made of fabric. Children play in the ashes, unaware that they are survivors of a war not yet finished. The army says, Evacuate. To where? They do not say. Only: Leave. Disappear. Unbecome. Famine grows near. But even hunger, with its gnawing cruelty, is familiar. Hunger is intimate. It is ours. What is worse, what is unbearable, is the silence that follows the blast. The silence in which you call a name and no one answers. The silence where meaning once lived. This is not a war. It is annihilation dressed in the costume of procedure. It is a logic without soul, a godless arithmetic of bodies and coordinates. And still, still, some whisper that God watches. I do not know. Sometimes I think He has turned His face away, not out of indifference, but out of shame. But if you are reading this, if your eyes have reached these words like a boat reaching a shore you thought unreachable, then for the love of all things holy and damned: Do not look away. To look away is to become part of it. To forget is to bury us before we are dead. To remain silent is to drive the final nail.

It was a dramatic victory at the High Court on Friday for the former Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams in his month-long defamation case against the BBC. We hear from Enda McGarrity, the solicitor for Denis Donaldson's family, and Seamus Dooley, Irish secretary for the NUJ.

He's back. He's brooding. He's possibly plagiarising. And he's forgotten his sandwiches.This Liam Neeson Special features five of our most beloved (and ridiculous) parody interviews from the past three years — plus two raunchy sketches involving a sultry American MILF named Vagella Rick-Rocks, who may or may not be trying to seduce Liam in increasingly absurd scenarios.Along the way, Liam overshares about romance, attempts to rebrand himself as a serious creative artist, and pitches original ideas such as:A romantic comedy glove-based ensemble film (Glove Actually)A mob drama about therapy (The Carusos)A masked vigilante with Wilfred the butler and Boy Wonder, Robbie. (That Man)While giving us first-hand insight into his bizarre world of:Showing old ladies his 'Hamlet'African prostitutesLaughing at elephantsPeeing in men's handsHis short-lived career as SantaDoggingEach sketch is followed by commentary from Jorma and Ray, who try (and mostly fail) to make sense of Liam's creative process, real-life zoo visits and late night video games with celebrity friends like Carol Vorderman, Bill Nighy and Gerry Adams - and suspiciously familiar plotlines.It's part tribute, part chaos, part forgotten sandwiches – with extra lashings of filth.

Edna O'Brien's early novels shocked Ireland which plotted its revenge. Her first novel The Country Girls was banned and she had to withstand the whispering of the establishment that she didn't write her own novels.Her career would be a rebuttal to the cynics and the priests, but her life had its share of trauma and despair. In the 1970s she began an affair with a renowned and married British politician whose identity has never been revealed. She was consumed by the relationship, unable to work or think of anything else. A new documentary Blue Road tells the remarkable story of Edna O'Brien. On Free State today, Blue Road's director Sinead O'Shea talks about the Edna O'Brien she got to know at the end of her life and why she remained so fiercely independent. She looks at O'Brien's life ridiculed and castigated by the establishment, firstly for writing about sex and then for writing about Gerry Adams. Sinead also tells the story of the acid trip that altered Edna O'Brien's life forever when she had to be rescued by James Bond.Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.For more on Free State: https://freestatepodcast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

fWotD Episode 2839: Northern Bank robbery Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 11 February 2025 is Northern Bank robbery.On 20 December 2004, £26.5 million in cash was stolen from the headquarters of Northern Bank on Donegall Square West in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Having taken family members of two bank officials hostage, an armed gang forced the workers to help them steal used and unused pound sterling banknotes. The money was loaded into a van and driven away in two trips. This was one of the largest bank robberies in the history of the United Kingdom.The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), the Independent Monitoring Commission (IMC), the British government and the Taoiseach all claimed the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) was responsible. This was denied by the IRA and by Sinn Féin. Throughout 2005, the police forces in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland made arrests and carried out house searches. A sum of £2.3 million was impounded at the house of a financial adviser, Ted Cunningham, in County Cork and Phil Flynn was forced to resign as chairman of the Bank of Scotland (Ireland), because he was a director of one of Cunningham's companies. Cunningham was convicted in 2009 of money laundering, had his conviction quashed in 2012 and was convicted at retrial in 2014. Chris Ward, one of the bank officials threatened by the gang, was himself arrested in November 2005 and charged with robbery. The prosecution offered no evidence at trial and he was released.Northern Bank announced soon after the heist that it would replace its own bank notes, in denominations of £5, £10, £20, £50 and £100. Alongside the murder of Robert McCartney in 2005, the robbery adversely affected the Northern Ireland peace process. It caused a hardening in the relationship between the Taoiseach Bertie Ahern and the Sinn Féin representatives Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness. Although Cunningham and several others were eventually convicted of crimes uncovered during the investigation, nobody has ever been held directly responsible for the robbery.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:10 UTC on Tuesday, 11 February 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Northern Bank robbery on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Danielle.

Richard Hermer was one of the surprise announcements from Keir Starmer's first Cabinet, and one of the most contravercial since. Starmer's old pal came with some notable baggage: his former clients include Sri Lankan refugees to the Chagos Islands and ex-Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams, as well as British-Bangladeshi Isis bride Shamima Begum. In government, Hermer has played a key role in several contentious decisions, such as the government's withdrawal of the UK's objections to the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu, and his involvement in the Chagos Islands deal. And today he admitted that he has had to recuse himself ‘from certain matters' due to potential conflicts of interest. Is the government hamstrung by Hermer? James Heale speaks to Katy Balls and Rajiv Shah, former special adviser to the Attorney General and legal adviser to Number 10. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Labour's Grooming Gang Betrayal: We Demand a National Enquiry Plus: Trump v Biden + Gerry Adams: British Taxpayers to Compensate IRA?

The success of Say Nothing has sparked a worldwide interest in the disappearance and murder of Jean McConville, the role of the Price sisters and the relationship Gerry Adams had with the IRA. It has also led people to ask questions about the Troubles, trauma and what they would have done if they had been part of a community under siege? But what if the history isn't history at all? On Free State today novelist Timothy O'Grady joins Dion and Joe to talk about the flaws in Patrick Radden Keefe's book. They ask what impact it has if many elements of the story are told from the perspective of people opposed to the peace process? They consider too how the TV series managed to turned the darkest act of the Troubles into a cartoon.Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.For more on Free State: https://freestatepodcast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Former Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams and 400 others could be in line for "a pay day from the taxpayer" under plans to repeal the Legacy Act, to change legislation barring compensation to those who were interned without trial during the Troubles in the 1970. We got reaction from Austin Stack, Son of murdered prison officer Brian Stack & Author of Justice for My Father, which will be released on the 13th of March.

With rumours swirling around Westminster and after Keir Starmer's less than convincing defence of his Chancellor earlier in the week, Rachel Reeves has found some brief respite. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) confirmed that inflation dipped to 2.5 per cent in the 12 months to December, down from 2.6 per cent the month before. It's welcome news for a Chancellor who is under pressure, so is she safe? Elsewhere, there is a fresh row emerging concerning Gerry Adams. The government is proposing to repeal legislation, enacted in 2023, that prevents Gerry Adams and 400 others from claiming ‘compensation' for having been detained in the 1970s for suspected involvement in terrorism. Keir Starmer has said that he and his ministers will look at ‘every conceivable way' to block Gerry Adams from receiving government money, but will they end up paying out? And who is Lord Hermer KC, and why is he at the centre of all of this? Katy Balls speaks to Michael Gove and Kate Andrews. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Keir is under heavy fire for his governments amendment to the Troubles Bill that would allow Gerry Adams and IRA terrorists massive amounts of compensation. Meanwhile his corrupt anti-corruption minister finally resigns and Labour insult the public by offering nearly £10 billion to the Chagos Islands to hand themselves over to Mauritius.Wake up with Morning Glory in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Freeview 280, Fire TV, Samsung TV Plus, or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

Spanning four decades, Say Nothing explores the tumultuous period in Northern Ireland known as The Troubles. The series opens with the shocking disappearance of Jean McConville, a single mother of ten who was abducted from her home in 1972 and never seen alive again.Through the eyes of various IRA members, Say Nothing explores the extremes some people will go to in the name of their beliefs, the way a deeply divided society can suddenly tip over into armed conflict, the long shadow of radical violence for both victims and perpetrators, and the emotional and psychological costs of a code of silence.The series stars Lola Petticrew as “Dolours Price” and Hazel Doupe as “Marian Price,” impetuous young women who became potent symbols of radical politics. Anthony Boyle stars as “Brendan Hughes,” a charismatic but conflicted military strategist, and Josh Finan as “Gerry Adams,” a savvy political operator who would go on to negotiate peace and has always denied having any involvement with the IRA. Maxine Peake stars as “Older Dolours Price.”Joshua Zetumer (showrunner / executive producer) is a writer of film and television. He's worked for every major studio and written on numerous films—Robocop, Patriots Day, the James Bond franchise. In adapting the book Say Nothing, he spent years researching the Troubles in Northern Ireland. He feels privileged to be able to share this story and has found working on the series to be especially fulfilling and meaningful. He currently lives in Los Angeles.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Speaking to an historian, Dolours Price discussed her life as a volunteer in the Provisional Irish Republican Army. Beginning in the 1970s, Dolours and her sister, Marian, convinced its operatives, including leader Gerry Adams, to let them fight in their guerilla war against British troops in Belfast. Throughout The Troubles, the sisters were part of a secret IRA unit whose missions included robbing banks, blowing up cars, and making traitors disappear. But decades later, as Adams negotiated an end to the conflict, Dolours became disillusioned about her past actions and the future of Northern Ireland.Based on the book by Patrick Radden Keefe, “Say Nothing” tells Price's four-decade story as a young IRA soldier and her attempts later in life to set the record straight. The series by FX on Hulu also focuses on the search for the mother of ten children, whose 1972 disappearance threatens to take down some of modern day Ireland's most powerful figures.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "SAY NOTHING" BEGIN IN THE FINAL NINE MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.Crime of the Week:  rat race.

Jo and Rob reveal the truth to recap the last five episodes of ‘Say Nothing.' They discuss how the back half of the season landed for them, the adaptive choice to depart from Frank Kitson as the show's main antagonist, and how the series depicts Gerry Adams distancing himself from the IRA movement (2:38). Along the way, they talk about both the character of Dolours and her real-life counterpart and Marian's fate at the end of the story (31:40). Later, they unpack how the show handles the mysterious disappearance of Jean McConville (38:26).Email us! nunbankheist@gmail.com Hosts: Joanna Robinson and Rob Mahoney Producer: Kai Grady Additional Production Support: Justin Sayles Learn more about your ad choices.
