Jump To Comment: 1 2What would you know about the law? Republican Sinn Fein by definition operate outside the law and do not recognize the law. It would be more logical of you if you simply bumped off these loyalists who are your alter ego, also operating outside the law. You can't have it both ways.
maybe the "full force of the law in the Six Counties [should be] brought to bear on the murderous activities" of RSF/CIRA, RIRA, INLA and PIRA?
Oh no, I forgot, Loyalism is bad cos they target Nationalists. As if any of the Repubiclan groups has never killed innocent people. Who the fuck are you trying to fool here? History does not go away just cos you refuse to accept it's existence. A bit like the 6 counties in that sense.
And by the way, in case you think I'm some pro-the-union zealot, I have just got back from the pub drinkin with a guy who was in Cage 13 in 74. Any repubicans here will know what that refers to.
I just think its hilarious for RSF (the O'Brady Bunch) to be callin on the State (their mortal enemy) to intervene and prosecute loyalists. I think we should be investigating you all. But if they murders were 'political' then, well thats war innit? War is terrorism, terrorism is war. But sometimes its necessary. And different people have different views of what constitutes 'necessary'. For some Loyalists maybe the dub/mon bombings were 'necessary' (in the same way that Michael Stone saw attacking a funeral and the Provos saw Enniskillen) in their own way. However, if the State was involved in these things (highly likely), then that is another kettle of fish altogether.
Personally I would condemn the Loyalists for a) meeting with the Taoiseach and b) a crap political philosophy (bit like the Provos in that respect)
