Secret British government memo shows soldiers had legal immunity

Let's face it Seano, you can't handle the truth, such as two young sisters killed by the hand of their own father, when his 'device' went off prematurely...one of your heroes, eh?

Babies on the Falls road been murdered by brave British tommies!! never again.Your just a petty little Brit Dan Lynch.

Now all the Belfast children can sing again, there’ll be no more war babies…and only true ‘simple-minds’ support the failed attempt of a small minority to coerce their neighbours into an ethereal, utopian, republican future ...now that’s what I call ‘anti-Irish’…

Dano with another anti Irish post.It's all so simple to the simple minded.

Posters who have seized on this memo as ‘documented proof’ of a cover up would do well to look at the actual memo…it states that of the 17 deaths by violence in the period of the ‘truce’, 13 were attributable to the ‘Provisionals’…that’s over 75%...and in the context of the whole piece, the ‘indemnity’ sought was not what’s being portrayed here…otherwise how do they account for the prosecutions of members of the security forces in the 70’s? Trying to divert attention from the real cause of most of the misery of the troubles, this is the desperate reaction of supporters of the failed effort of a minority to coerce their fellow citizens…sad but typical…they really need to move on…

True redbranch just ask Mrs Robinson.

Lot of lust going on there IrelandNorth.

Once upon a time there was a small green and fertile island nation. Then a lustful class of people on a larger neighbouring island nation cast its covetuous glances upon the golden vales of its smaller neighbour, and yearned to possess it with all the lust of their souls. To possess their own island more fully, this lustful class displaced other less lustul classes of that larger island, so that this less lustful class of the larger island were forced to seek refuge on the more fertile part of the smaller neighbouring island. In time, the more lustful class of the larger island used their displaced less lustful classes to hold that smaller island for them in perpetuity to the detriment of the majority peace loving natives of that smaller island, thereby inflicting an abominable injustice across generations (with the help of a equally lustful native minority of that smaller island). The more lustful classes went on to gain the world but lost their souls in the process, as had been foretold by wise wo/men of old. And everybody lived unhappily ever after. Until near the end of time, everybody learned to love each other and share their wealth in common, and to practice the religion they preached but rarely practised. Much tears were shed, and peace and happiness grew like sheaves of wheat in the well watered furrows of forgiveness of past.

So there you have it documented proof of a cover up! The deafening silence from some of teh usual commentators on this site is interesting....

Sinn Fein can now say "I told you so". Willie Whitewash giving a wink and a nod to orange terrorist groups is a terrible indictment of British colonial policies in the six counties.

United The States military certainly isn't inhibited to carry out illegal wars and violate the Geneva Convention on prisoner treatment. Those of you in the US see no problem with that. Additionally, the US shows no reticence going after Al Qaeda terrorists on its own soil or anywhere else in the world, eg. bombing Pakistan without that country's agreement.

The five Nationalists shot dead by British forces in Belfast on 9 July, 1972, included Fr. Noel Fitzpatrick (40)(who was shot while praying over a wounded ma), Pat Butler (39), David McCafferty (14), John D- (16) and Mgt. Gargan (13). One wonders why there was no official investigation into the killings of the priest, another middleaged man, two teenaged boys and a 13-year old girl. Why is there scarcely a mention of these 5 innocent victims in the mainstream media of theIrish state?

Finally the truth finds a way.
