Links 6/3/9
Some links for this week, then.
Lenin on the limitations of 'humanitarian intervention' as witnessed by the pointlessness of indicting Omar Hassan Al-Bashir.
Justin on the deportation of Child M and what it says about Gordon Brown's much-trumpeted 'fairness'.
David Neiwert looks at the links between extreme right-wing rhetoric and violence against minorities.
Septicisle on the 'complete and utter fuck-up' surrounding the unpunished police killing of James Ashley, and the lessons which still haven't been learned from it.
John Pilger on the erosion of freedom in Britain.
And on that theme, here's the truly bizarre story of a man arrested for (not even) taking photos of a sewer grate. Really? Really.
I'll hope to kick some stuff off over at the all-new singing and dancing Mailwatch later, and there'll be a bit more of the usual sweary nonsense here in a bit as well.
