The headline “Al-Qaeda’s Revenge” (Saturday, January 10) caught me by surprise.

Recently, the media has highlighted the level of greed and immorality regarding money, salaries, etc, that still abounds in Ireland today.

We ‘do’ talk, we ‘do’ committees, reports and investigations.

IF the sophistication of a society can be measured by its tolerance and treatment of minorities, then we must be a very unsophisticated and ignorant people. The onslaught on minority taxi drivers in Cork, Galway, Ennis and Dublin must go down in the annals of contemporary history with shame.

I AM outraged at the lenient sentence given to the paedophile Brother James Redmond (Irish Examiner, June 26).
