China reporting that U.S. investments in China has dropped 28%. Some analysts blame rising labor costs. However, other foreign investments into China have actually increased.
Most economists think the decrease in U.S. investment is only short term, but admit it is connected to the bad economy in the United States.
May 17, Chinese media reporting that clashes have broken out between Irish protesting Queen Elizabeth’s visit to Ireland, and turncoat Irish police.

“This visit is part of a carefully orchestrated campaign to normalize British rule and the enforced partition of Ireland. Irish Republicans will actively oppose this visit in order to send out the clear message that British rule and the partition of Ireland will never be either normal or acceptable.”-Sinn Féin
The oldest Irish political party, Sinn Féin, along with the Irish Republican Army and the Socialist group Eirigi, have all come out with statements, or acts, against the visit of the Queen of England to Ireland.
Eirigi has executed the queen’s effigy. Several IRA members have been preemptively arrested for comments made before the queen’s visit. Bomb threats have been made, as well as fake and real bombs found.
The queen still has several days left in her visit to Ireland.
Just in: The Irish Army reports they’ve blown up a suspected booby trapped bus, and found a fake bomb in the capital of Dublin.
A homemade bomb was found on a bus heading to Dublin. The Army destroyed it by blowing it up.
In Dublin a fake bomb was found. Officials believe it was meant to distract the military and police.
“Firstly we oppose it because it is a waste of money. The second reason we oppose this is because of British imperialism, but most importantly we oppose this because she is the commander-in-chief of the British military who continue to occupy the six counties [Northern Ireland].”-Brian Leeson, Eirigi chairman
Members of the Republic of Ireland’s Eirigi political party, held a trial for Queen Elizabeth. She was charged with 12 crimes, including the Great Irish Famine and the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. After they found her guilty they cut her head off. Of course it was just an effigy of the queen.
“But here is seems an individual or a group with specific knowledge of the dissident republican coded warning system has called to make a bomb threat. The police cannot afford to do anything but treat this with the utmost seriousness.”-Mark White, SkyNews Home affairs correspondent
Scotland Yard has put London on alert after bomb threats were called in from Irish, who’re upset over the Queen of England’s visit to Ireland.
As an example of the ongoing war between the Irish and the English, in April a Northern Ireland police constable was killed when his home was bombed.
“The real purpose of the ongoing massive garda [police] operation is to deter and intimidate people from engaging in protests against the visit by the commander-in-chief of the British military.”-Louise Minihan, Dublin City Council member
Several Irish protesters were arrested just before Queen Elizabeth II set foot on the Emerald Isle. Arrests were made not only in the Republic of Ireland, but in Northern Ireland as well.
One group, “Eirigi”, has announced plans to occupy the Garden of Remembrance. The queen is scheduled to lay a wreath to remember the Irish who fought for independence from her own royal family.
In Northern Ireland, members of the Irish Republican Army said the queen’s visit is “the final insult”, and is proof that armed resistance must continue.
This past weekend at least 27 bodies were found in a mass grave along Guatemala’s border with Mexico. Since then Guatemalan forces have battled with suspects, resulting in the capture of one, and killing two.
Now the President of Guatemala, Alvaro Colom, has declared a State of Siege. He says they’ve identified the bodies in the mass grave as migrant workers, who were trying to get into Mexico for jobs. Colom says the migrants were killed by the Zetas Drug Gang.
I’ve asked this before: Why would drug dealers want to kill migrant workers? This looks more like something that radical right wing nationalist would do, not purely drug dealers.
The majority of people killed in Mexico’s Drugs War have been migrant works from outside Mexico. Don’t forget that many tourists from the United States have been killed, for no apparent reason. I’m suspecting that what is happening is that a pro-Mexican NAZI like group (Zetas) has risen to power, through the sale of illegal drugs, and is carrying out their ultra-nationalist agenda of ridding Mexico of all foreigners. The drug dealing was just to get enough money to wage their war.
