Historic handshake or surrendering of history?

category national | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Wednesday June 27, 2012 14:11author by Indyjourno Report this post to the editors

Earlier today former Provisional IRA commander and current Deputy First Minister of the Stormont Assembly, Martin McGuiness, shook hands with the UK Queen.

Sinn Féin portrayed this as a “powerful signal that peace-building requires leadership”. While others proposed that it was the final capitulation of the Provisional to the establishment.

Republican Sinn Féin's view:
"Provisionals are part and parcel of British administration in Ireland‏
In a statement on June 22 the President of Republican Sinn Féin, Des Dalton, said:
“The upcoming meeting of British Crown Minister Martin McGuinness with the Queen of England is merely a symbolic confirmation of the fact that the Provisionals are part and parcel of the British administration in Ireland. The reality of British Rule on the ground for nationalists has not changed with arbitrary arrest and internment without trial still used to secure British occupation."
