It has all the fingerprints of their involvement with RUC documents missing! At least the victims had their day in court, unlike the victims of Bloody Sunday, Dublin-Monahan Bombings, Miami Showband etc. etc!

But the IRAs main figurehead protected a paedophile rapist brother and in just one of his pieces of work he masterminded the burning to death of 12 Protestants out for dinner for no reason other that their religion, and says he was never in the ira, and organised the killing of Jean mcconville. So your main man was a paedo-protecting, sectarian, woman-killer and pathological liar. Who has mysteriously became wealthy. You see the problem !

It seems anyone who dislike SF on this site usually have one train of thought, they think objective reasoning is castigating republicans on all matters, and when pulled up and questioned on any criticism of unionism or the lack of balance they bring, they revert to the "both sides" codolgy and slowly try and bring the topic back to republicanism
