Itsjustmacker

not much point in letting the blood boil over it. It does us little good. I have long learned to be philosophical about it. What are they not capable of? At the end of the day it takes a particular type of person (the banality of evil phrase comes to mind from Hanna Arendt) to walk into a prison hospital for the sole purpose of killing off their dying colleagues.

AM.

I firmly believe This was, the biggest setup in Irish History, by a republican movement being paid by the British Establishment to bring down another (Proper Irish Republican), Gerry was used as pig fodder by PSF, they thought of the scenario, WHAT IF HE (Gerry McGeough) WINS!, These are the liars , the fat wallets, all with £-P and Euros in their bank accounts, who let men die on hunger strike in 81 to further their political turn around into the British establishment, thus, bringing ALL Republican VOTERS into their ill fated domain, as I type these words, My Blood Boils to its extreme.

If Francie wrote those words, They are apt to today's situation, and, say thanks to Marie as well. I have copied and pasted them for future reference, copyright goes to the author at all times, NO I'm Not writing a book, I'm just recording natural history, I like collecting and reading Ode's.

Way of thread I know and apologise but Francie Mc Guigan gave this to Marie at a demo in support of Marian last light,I think its brill..
You have donned the red of England,you are Englands creature now.
And the cursed brand of serfdom has its mark upon your brow,
From this moment I disown you,who have spurned your name and race.
Who have sold your Irish birthright for the bargain of disgrace.
Many lands have slaves and traitors who would sell their race for gold.
Who would lead the greedy wild beast on the unprotected fold.
But the meanest,vilest wretch of all that curse the earth today,
Is the Irish born slaveling who would fight in Englands pay..

If there is one certainty to be taken from all these interviews from the likes of Morrow,Mc Causland,Dodds ,McCrea,Elliot et al and that is the qsf wish of "moving on" just aint going to happen,I see it more as a prod parliament for a prod people with a sprinkling of taigs on top,the more qsf and the sdlp grovel to accomodate the unionist bigots the more they want a return of pre 69 Stormont,these bigots have never been interested in proper justice,more a perseverance of the privileged position that unionism held.any and all right thinking people should be horrified at such power in the hands of nameless individuals,as if the government havent been caught out lying often enough,that our liberty can be in the hands of these people and no redress is as scary as being a jew in Germany during Hilters reign with as about as much hope of the politicians coming to your defense.these type of powers in the hands of very dubious people transcends tribal politics,this is a human right issue that goes to the very heart of our liberty.those unionist mentioned above had they been in Germany I,m sure they would have cheered the Auschwitz train..

Marty,

I think there is something to be said for that. The history of republican political violence here suggests there is a relationship between it and British state practices. I remain convinced that the Brits breathed life into the Provisional IRA. by use of draconian practices

What is to stop them arresting me tomorrow,who will speak.the idea that we have to trust intelligence is ludicrous,it is an excuse to remove dissenting voices,and these people have the audacity to condemn Assad,or Gadaffi or Saddam Hussein,they are doing the same thing.As I understand it a pardon means just that,you are deemed to have served your sentence and released,how can you be on licence if you have been pardoned,this is a shameful abuse of human rights.I do not agree with Marian Price's politics,but she is entitled to Justice,She should be released immediately,they obviously have either fabricated this whole thing,or are trying to protect informers,the use of which has been recently thrown out of court anyway.Some people talk about british justice -it's an oxymoron,a bit like british intelligence in that respect.

Mike Philpott was having none of Elliot's crap.

Phil Scratton tied Elliot in knots, Thats why Elliot had to say;
"You're actually being duplicitous in what you're saying, Phil. I have to say all that you're trying to do is discredit me and discredit the security services for what they're doing and you're failing abysmally."

But, lets get to the crunch of things, It was stated that this law was created on immigration!, Its a nice way of saying, lets get all these al qaeda people and lock them up and throw away the key, In simple terms it means, If you or I were walking down the street we could be arrested under this draconian law and never be let out again, just on the word of a tout to the security (MI5) Services, or, just on the word of MI5 itself.

I have stated on a number of posts that,The security services (MI5/6) can do what they want and are answerable to no one, they are know the Judge , jury and jailer.

Welcome to Russian Justice System brought into our country by the British Security Services.

Anthony when we see that Stormont is full of that blind bigoted mentality,without the slightest concern for due process or the rights of the people here,then one wonders is this grist to the mill for those violently opposed to what passes as the peace process here.

2012-08-02T22:26:43.596+01:00

Marty,

you are right about the similarity with Morrow. Phil Scraton didn’t cut him much slack either. It shows the strength of a straightforward ethical argument over a bigoted assertion

2012-08-02T22:18:30.974+01:00

It shows just how little has changed in that mindset. Just bang people up because the Intelligence agencies say it is fine. The same agencies that told them about the Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq and caused a war that is still going on. Phil let him away with none of it. I think Mark Philpott held his feet to the fire as well.

2012-08-02T22:17:06.108+01:00

Thank fuck there is people like professor Phil Scraton about who are not only capable of highlighting such miscarriages but do it so eloquently,I think if I was in the same room as either of those bigoted bastards Morrow or Elliot I,d find it difficult to keep my boot out of their arses....

2012-08-02T22:05:53.265+01:00

That was a bit like a re-run of the Morrow interview,but obviously Tom Elliot ex udr/a is obviously convinced that this 58 year old very sick woman is a danger to society,so it is obviously in the public interest to keep her locked up ,I mean as Tom more or less said she was obviously involved in the Massereene shooting and obviously due to the sensitive nature of the intelligence she obviously needs to be kept locked up as does that dangerous man Corey he obviously is a terrorist because he looks like one its so obvious..and that bollocks carried a rifle on the streets here and was the leader of the unionist party when its obvious he is of his head,its obvious he would be shouting a different message if it was one of his mates banged up obviously..
