Recipients of this e-mail may wish to note that three months or so after
EU Petition 546/2005 (relating to the
proposed M3 Toll Road) referred to below was submitted to the
European Parliament, I sent what I
regard as some very important additional information relating to the
Hill of
Tara to several Republic of Ireland and European Union politicians and
administrators.
The information in question strongly suggests that
the Hill of Tara was the location of "
The Great Feast of Tara", and that
the main purpose of this great feast (held each year or every three years in
more recent times perhaps) was the maintenance of
Brehon
Law.
As many in Ireland already know,
Brehon Law goes right
back into the very heart, and right down into the very soul of ancient Irish
culture and heritage.
Believed by many to have been formulated by
King Ollamh Fodhla (who reigned between
1317 and 1277 BC according
to
"The Annals Of Ireland by
the Four Masters"), Brehon
Law was used in Ireland from very early times up to the 1600's AD, when it
taken away from the Irish people (against their wishes) and replaced by the very
different English version of
Roman Law now in use.
In so far
as I can judge, the important information on the above mentioned Brehon Law aspect of the
Hill of Tara's heritage, which I sent to literally hundreds of Irish and
European politicians during
"Heritage Week 2005 Ireland" (held during
September 4th to the 11th 2005), has all been COMPLETELY ignored by those
concerned. Among those who were informed are the recipients listed in the e-mail
reproduced at the following address:

M3 European
Petitionby W.
Finnerty. Fri Feb 23, 2007 18:53 I recently
viewed the text of the
MEATH ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY'S
Petition to the European Parliament (
EU reference 546/2005), which relates to
the planned "
M3 Toll Road" at present scheduled to run thorough the
Tara / Screen Valley, and which can seen at:
http://community.meath.ie/mahs/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=44&Itemid=52
. (A
BACKUP copy of the petition text is available
here .)
A
quick look suggests to me that a lot of hard work went into that particular
petition (dated June 1st 2005), and, on the face of it, and allowing for my own
EU petition experience regarding the N6 Upgrade in East Galway and the
Turoe/Knocknadala situation (see
Petition Number 1018/2003 at
http://www.finnachta.com/EuropeanParliamentPetition.htm ), which appears to have produced better results, I'm a
bit surprised the European Union did not put the MEATH ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND
HISTORICAL SOCIETY'S petition to better use: for the purpose of protecting the
ancient heritage sites in and around the Tara / Skreen
Valley.
However, when I remind myself that the planned M3 Toll Road
is a
billion Euros project (just for the road part alone apparently), and
that there are numerous reports of outrageous corruption taking place in the
European Union, perhaps I should not be too surprised by the apparent and so far
unexplained "stubbornness" of our "elected representatives" to behave reasonably
regarding the protection of ancient heritage sites in the Tara
area.
To be honest, all of my experiences of recent years relating
to "heritage protection" suggest that corrupt public officials and
administrators in the Republic of Ireland are working hand in hand with corrupt
public officials and administrators in the European Union, and that both groups
are - in addition, and to make things many times more difficult to deal with -
working hand in hand with corrupt public officials and administrators in the
United States of America.
In support of this conclusion of
mine, and by way of just one of a great many such examples I could provide,
please note the following two quotes from an "independent" Member of the
European Parliament (named
Ashley Mote) which were made on September 24th
2004:
"Mr President, Dr Brüner, the Director General of OLAF,
which is responsible for investigating European Union fraud and corruption, told
the Committee on Budgetary Control at its last meeting that it was not his job
to snoop. His annual report said not a word about the EU's own accounting
system, which has been shown to be structurally fraudulent and lacks financial
cohesion." "Basic financial records are not being
kept; double-entry bookkeeping is still not the norm; cash and bank balances are
still not being reconciled, nor are budgets and expenses; advances are recorded
as expenditure, which is fraudulent; loans which disappear are written off,
which is both a loss of public funds and tax fraud; and records of assets and
liabilities in past years are changed retrospectively, which is also
fraudulent." In so far as I can establish, and despite the best
efforts of Mr Mote and his close associates over a lengthy period of time,
nothing whatsoever of significance has been done to remedy the "banana republic"
type of accounting flaws he has brought to the attention of the European
Parliament. This of course has left many believing that the accounting "flaws"
are no accident, and that they are in fact being very deliberately sustained.
All the better to facilitate huge "backhanders" of various kinds it would
seem?
With a
"General Election" (in the Republic of Ireland)
just a few months away, I find myself wondering if the matter of corruption
(generally) might somehow be made into a subject of public debate: with senior
public officials (including MEPs) being invited to answer some serious questions
on this issue in public?
Such debate might be a lot more useful
than all the waffle and speculation about who is going to join up with who after
the votes are counted, "rainbow coalitions", and so on. "Corruption coalitions"
might be a much more accurate description of such
arrangements?
"A rose by any other name is still a
rose."
And, what for example is the significance to voters of all
the endless and fraudulent talk about "democracy" - if all (or almost all) of
the so called "elected representatives" are secretly selling themselves off to
the highest bidders (in "big business") behind the backs of the voters? Why also
should so many of us keep on allowing ourselves to be fooled and hoodwinked into
believing that the so called "rule of law" is anything other than the "rule of
corruption and bullying" in reality? (Consider the case of the
Rossport 5 for
example.)
The above two quotes by Ashley Mote MEP have been copied
from the following address:

Fraud and Corruption" in the
European Union (featuring
Asley Mote MEP) can also be viewed at:
http://www.ashleymote.co.uk/viewvideo.php?sec=view&video_id=12 Changing
the subject a little, and with the "
doctrine of the tripartite separation
of powers" in mind (between,
government, legislature, and
judiciary), which is deeply embedded into
Bunreacht na hEireann
(Constitution of the Republic of Ireland), and which all our so called "public
servants" appear to me to have completely abandoned in the best interests of
indulging themselves in rampant corruption, a final thought from
Thomas
Jefferson (1742 - 1826), who was the third President of United States of
America (1801-09):
" ...and the Banks and the Judges have
been working like gravity by day and by night, gaining a little today and a
little tomorrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief over the field of
jurisdiction, until all shall render powerless the checks of one branch (of
government)
over the other and will become as venal and
oppressive as the government (in England)
from which we separated". (More on Thomas Jefferson can be found at
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Thomas+Jefferson,+Corruption&btnG=Search
.)
The unlawfully abandoned "doctrine of the tripartite separation
of powers" might be another good subject for public debate in the run-up to the
General Election of 2007 ? - and a very good recent example of this
outrageous legal abuse (in my view), which directly involves
President Mary
McAleese, and heritage protection, can be found at the following
