Side-splitting as usual Michael
Great answer once more I am baffled.

“At the start and amongst the thousands of people were 4 armed and masked volunteers”

Since the subject is about an injustice the four armed masked men would appear to be engaging in Para-military activity? Should PSF take their names and hand the information over to the PSNI?
No need for an answer it is rhetorical.

It has been fun bantering with you Michael but your version of the new Union sounds insane I prefer the old one, even leaning on voting for a unionist party at least I can understand them.
I have a note from my mummy excusing me as you are a bad influence. I think I will wait on the DVD of Michael Henrys War should be worth wasting a fiver on.

Good luck Michael.

2010-08-31T11:04:20.478+01:00

Michael,

Both men are not charged with the same offences. Vincent McAnespie has only been charged with weapons possession; the murder charge for him was withdrawn. McGeough and McAnespie are being singled out since they are the only republicans being prosecuted for offences committed during the Troubles since the Good Friday Agreement in 1998.

"who are these armed groups now fighting a war, they might say that
there is a war, but they are not fighting one"

What do you mean? The RIRA and the CIRA continue to attack state forces in the North, so they are still fighting a war. The attacks may not be as frequent or effective as those of the PIRA, but they still occur.

By the way, you never answered my question: would you not consider providing information on armed republicans to the police 'touting'?

you have hung yourself on your own
words,
who are these armed groups now fighting a war, they might say that
there is a war, but they are not fighting one,
how is mcgeough being singled out,
there are two men up on the same charge,

you have a strange perception of
SINN FEIN, i was at the hunger strike 29th anniversary march a few
weeks ago, the march started at

i think that i will be ok with SINN FEIN old hand,

2010-08-30T23:20:22.230+01:00

Michaelhenry,

I have to say that I 100% agree with Helen, you really have been brain-washed.
'Only touts are against sinn fein'
Seems to me psf are against anyone who disagrees with them, and they will work along with the brits and the pro-british media to hammer anyone who dares to speak up. Another 'dirty tricks' tactic from the past.
'It's good to see both Helen and Ballymurphy Republican backing Mc Geough' Sorry for pointing out the obvious, that Mc Geough is a victim of a witchhunt by the judicial system that is politically controlled by the brits, just as policing is controlled by the brits through MI5. No change there then!

Saint Tom,

Not sure why your asking me about the dissidents agenda, as I am not a dissident. Personally I feel that the word 'dissident' is a label used by the brits and their buddies in stormont for anyone who is against british rule in Ireland.

2010-08-30T22:47:38.813+01:00

michaelhenry, for years Sinn Fein have been encouraging their followers and the wider community to provide information to the police.

Sinn Fein, have been actively encouraging people to present the security forces with any information they have in relation to republicans and acts of violence against the state.

Surely, it should follow, if republicans have information in relation to members of Sinn Fein they should be allowed to divulge it.

2010-08-30T22:27:55.564+01:00

Michael

Why it is that all your posts sound very militant granted you are highly amusing.
I wonder why you have not received the new PSF lexicon. (Militant language is reserved for those non republican, republicans) you are still using the Armalite and ballot box lexicon. In public you are supposed to deny any militant view as you continue to contradict the reformation of PSF.
When are the “re-education camps opening? Commandant Michael Pot (head) AKA “brother number one” 2016 shall become the New Year Zero.

Scholars had less trouble deciphering The Rosetta Stone!
Hopefully there is a linguistic expert who will translate your posts into either Irish or English or even Hieroglyph as I believe the consensus from all sides is no one understands what you are saying.
Anyway PSF might get wind of your postings and pull you up on failing to watch the skies for those sneaky Brit choppers.

2010-08-30T22:01:02.470+01:00

Michael,

Of course, Gerry Adams wouldn't provide information about past PIRA activities to the police, but he would do so in the case of armed republicans who are still at war. Would you not call that 'touting'?

I am not a political supporter of Gerry McGeough; in fact, I find some of his views abhorrent. However, I think that he is being unfairly singled out by the authorities and that his prosecution is probably politically motivated.

mick hall-
pastor neiemuller would have run,
why would they come for some one who says he wll tell tales in court,
M McG is immune when he said he was a member, like everone who give evidence at the bloody sunday
inquiry, stick to facts,

alfie-
GERRY ADAMS would not go to a diplock court with evidence on a republican about what happened
during the war, mcgeough is,

two-faced, those that oppose SINN FEIN in stormont, but support mcgeough who also would take his seat, if elected, its a mystery folks.

2010-08-30T15:47:25.659+01:00

Michael,

How can Gerry Adams complain about 'touting' when he advocates giving information on dissident republicans to the police? He even said that if he had such information himself, he would talk to the police. Why do you call Gerry McGeogh a 'tout' but not Gerry Adams?

2010-08-30T15:26:32.984+01:00

Anyone deemed a threat or inconvenience will experience all the dirty tricks from the PSNI and now SF too. Helen, I wouldn't worry about a Republican future of the SF variety, it's the colour ORANGE. That is not a Republican party. They are in the business of making sure a Republican agenda never returns. They just don't have the integrity to step out from the tarnished, shredded, green rag they wrap themselves in.

2010-08-30T10:54:20.570+01:00

Michael

Is the UK State targeting Gerry McGeough for allegedly belonging to an Organization, etc, which deputy first minister M McG and others have openly admitted once being members of? Yes. Is this persecution politically motivated, yes.

At times solidarity is the only weapon to hand when governments act in such an unjust manner, thus whether republican or socialist, we have a duty to express our solidarity, as many individual members of Sinn Fein have done in the McGeough case.

We do this not only as an act of solidarity but also because it is in our interest. For as Pastor Niemuller wrote,

In Germany they first came for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me —
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

last week, mcgeough clearly states
that he is prepared to tout on GERRY ADAMS in a diplock court,
it is good to see both helen and
ballymurphy-eh republican backing
mcgeough, who will take his seat in stormont if elected,
only touts are against SINN FEIN
taking there seats, but support those that give evidence to a diploct court, and accept there seats in stormont if elected.

BallyMurphy
I was wondering if the dissident agenda
( uniting all of ireland against them )
is a subtle and devious method of joining the PSNI and Gardai into one united ireland police force!

It seems to be working.
Fair play t'ya

There is method to be found in madness after all.
I didn't see that one coming

2010-08-29T19:28:35.051+01:00

Michaelhenry,
I'm sure Gerry Mc Geough is well past what sinn fein think of him. It is treacherous that sinn fein are willing to stand by and watch the circus unfold in the case against Gerry Mc Geough and you have the cheek to give off about him having secret documents about Adams and is willing to use them. It's dog eat dog out there, and with sinn fein now sitting in stormont, hand in hand with the british government ready and willing to throw fellow Irishmen to the wolves, they can't expect people to lie down and take it. Seems to me that it's psf thats sleeping with the crown. It really is a pathetic joke.

Helen, fair play to you for keeping Gerry's case in the spotlight. Good luck on your quest for justice.

2010-08-29T18:49:28.500+01:00

michaelhenry,

Do you sniff glue or something? First, RE-READ the Sunday World article. McGeough did not say what you accuse him of here. #2. The document mentioned in the article was already in the public domain for years and Gerry Adams was already confronted about it on the steps of Stormont by a film crew from Australia. (www.tribune.ie/article/2010/aug/22/twenty-years-on-a). #3. Regardless of the fact that you seem to think GM stands alone, you are wrong. There are people out there who, regardless of religious or political differences with McGeough, support him on the merits that what is being done to him and his family is pure political revenge driven by an arrogant, corrupt and vindictive RUC/PSNI and the British crown. As for me having “no republican future”, I have no idea what you mean? It appears to me, since last year, you would be very happy to see McGeough tuck his tail between his legs and just go to prison or disappear off the face of the earth. That way his case/trial wouldn’t be a public embarrassment to Sinn Fein or their followers who don’t have the courage to stand up and defend a fellow republican when it is obvious to everyone his trial is a railroad job. As for my “hatred of Sinn Fein”, those are your words not mine. However, I do have disdain for their hypocrisy and those who blindly follow them and can’t seem to think outside the box. I don’t know if that’s because you are afraid to challenge what they now represent, or it’s because you have been brain-washed to believe they can do no wrong. I think it’s a bit of both.

bit late to worry what SINN FEIN
people think of you and mcgeough
helen, you have made your beds, now
sleep with the crown,
mcgeough says that the troubles must be left in the past, but in last weeks sunday world big man
megeough said that he had secret
documents that proved that GERRY ADAMS was an IRA member, and that he was going to give this evidence
to a diplock court, and you still
support him,
bit strange that you never wrote this to the pensive quill,
i hope you are hardline helen,
and you keep your hatred of SINN FEIN, telling tales of GERRY ADAMS
past will leave you of no republican future.
