Probably not a big deal to you guys but Ireland just became the first country in the world to divest from all fossil fuels.

We’ve also put steps in motion to ban imported goods from occupied erritories. Meaning Israel. Mainly. It could also apply to Northern Ireland as its part of the uk but NI produces pretty much nothing anybody needs or wants.

The government no longer invests in fossil fuel companies.

ohhh! I've never come across that usage of the word divest. I've only used it in terms of ridding yourself of something. I've learned something new.

Well this is escalating. (Bear in mind the Israeli secret service were caught faking and travelling on fake Irish passports on some hit job to take a guy out).

A partly open truck loaded with Nike Air Force 1 sneakers and Christian Louboutin shoes reportedly showed up in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago last week. Local activists say it was a “bait truck” placed by law enforcement to lure would-be thieves to their arrest. The truck was parked near a basketball court and traveled to other sites in the predominantly black community on the city’s southwest side, according to Charles Mckenzie of the crime prevention group God’s Gorillas.

Bait cars I can understand, but this is petty stuff.
