He was arrested at Heuston Station in Dublin two years earlier by gardaí investigating money laundering following the Northern Bank robbery and found in possession of a Daz washing powder box containing more than €94,000.

Lets not run away from the point Your link - about the SF fella - said: "The case collapsed in 2008 and he was cleared of all charges" So .. im still waiting. Dont be dodging it.

Using the murder of innocent people by the British state to legitimize their own murders of innocent people. The Loyalist gangs did nothing that the IRA didn't do. Both sides deliberately targeted innocent civilians, killed women and children. Same scum different uniform.

maccored wrote: » whereas you say 'they're all bad'. great insight there. no-one likes the idea of killing, and you certainly dont like to hear that your heroes who were meant to protect, where getting paid to kill innocents instead. as ive said before - if you had to live in it, you'd have a different idea. you didn't, so you think saying 'they're all bad' is a debating tactic.` you defend the british army. they were directing the udr to go kill innocents.

He, like others, thought the problems could be solved without everyone at the table. It was Fr. Alex Reid who, after a conversation with Adams persuaded Hume that the solution lay in a pan nationalist approach and an all Ireland solution. Mallon wasn't interested in that and ignored Reid's approaches and the SDLP forced Hume on a solo run. Hume was, in fact, a failure politically before he teamed up with Adams.
