An award-winning short by Belgian animator Joost Jansen. To wit:

A soldier goes to the front during World War I, whose horrors make him realise that the enemy is actually war itself. The testimony of this soldier stands as a metaphor for the terrible cruelty of war and the desire for peace.

Part of the 12 Minutes About Peace project –  a collection of 12 one-minute animated shorts on the theme of peace by Flemish animators.

I picked up the latest copy of the UCC [University College Cork] Express today. It has an article by Elaine Healy-Rae, attacking Gerry Adams and making the claim that Adams “as a man, and as a party leader, has gotten away with too much.” While that claim might be true, the author’s second name might indicate that she’s not writing from an entirely neutral point of view.

Fight!
