| Dublin a few nights ago. |

| The same scene during the riots. |
Sorry
for not posting much - I'm flying to America tomorrow, and between that
and the article I'm writing on the Dublin riots, it's been busy.
From the article:
"Most other attacks had been rural or in poor areas, easier to sweep under the rug. This was in the heart of the city, the main shopping district at Christmas season, in a square named for a national hero, in the neighbourhood where the Irish Revolution began a century ago. It was next door to where Irish icon Oliver St. John Gogarty once lived. It was around the corner from a memorial to the innocents killed by an IRA bomb in the 1970s. It was at an Irish-language school, favoured by people proud of their heritage, in neighbourhoods now populated heavily by migrants."
