I find it helps keep in mind the crimes of a group of people who want to control the country, what with all the revisionism and history that they like to rewrite
for the ease of this particular point ,
what war was the likes of Robert McCartney or Joe Rafferty or engaged in against sfira that required his murder and subsequent cover up by the organization ?
you seem happy to vote for creatures who committed murder in the name of greed of envy or just lazy drunken pride ,murdering cowards
again old ground
27 years after the Germans closed the gas chambers on some more Jews they were then hosting the Olympics in Munich.
We're 25 years into a peace process which was agreed to by a po population North and South on this Island. Time moves on and contemporary issues affect our electorate now. I've 4 children and to be honest they're more concerned about health, housing and jobs than a car bomb or shooting that occurred 23/ 30 or 40 years ago.
Anyone want to discuss that war crime that occurred in Ballyseedy? All parties on this Island are steeped in blood.
they hadn't gone away when gerry made that statement, they have done so since 1998 however.
people who claim to be in a group that calls themselves IRA being in the courts have nothing to do with SF.
Sinn Fein soon to be the largest party in the North and also in the South.
Time of positive change and unification is upon us.
Amazing to see this will be lead by two powerful and brilliant women.
The IRA aren't a political party. In fact they signed up to peace a few decades ago.
You want something complex and war related treated like a peace time issue. Can't happen easily.
Yes, old ground. I'm happy to vote for SF because I don't expect IRA roaming the streets should they form a government.
I support any criminal being brought to justice. If MLMD is involved, her too.
the link i posted is from december 2021 .......
there have been quite a number of murders carried out by ira members since 1998
read the thread might be good advise for you
munich ? lol talk about picking a bad example 😏
not many "partys" have so much fresh blood on their hands tbf . and as we all know there are many sfira members who murdered innocent people and then hid behind the party to escape justice .
as for other issues they have shown what a shambles they are when they do get power in the north already
would you be happy for the murderers of innocent people who never faced justice , who we have covered here many times , being in government ?
do you want a minister for justice who beat a man to death in a shed ? or stomped on a mans head in a pub killing him then ran away and hid behind the community's fear or his organization ?
the issues in the north are down to the DUP stifling everything with their failed no surrender crap.
sf are trying to push through modernization but the DUP yearn for the old days of the sectarian apartheid state.
always some one else's fault with them isnt it ,
so much easier for them to be in opposition pissing and moaning , when they get the chance and fail they revert to blaming some one else lol
it is other's fault yes, the DUP as i said yearn for the old days so will do what they can to stifle the necessary modernization that sf are trying to bring.
SF will step up when they get into government here and won't fail, they wouldn't fail in NI either if they weren't stifled.
Times moved on. If you've proof of any murders go to the Gardai or PSNI. It's for them to deal with.
No to all 3. I guarantee you that won't happen. You should contact the Garda if you have any evidence beyond hearsay.
We've a head of the Garda with questions to answer on collusion right now. We've a former Taoiseach under criminal investigation.
I assume you are aware of the background of the Garda and politicians we already had? You seem very naive if you think criminality in government or law enforcement was a concern only for SF members. Look up the torture claims by those wrongfully arrested for sallins. The Garda were nothing but state sponsored thugs for decades.
blind faith in a undemoctatic organization that you want in government .
you might find that acceptable but many dont thank fcuk
as pointed out many many times lots of these investigations are still open , for some reason it seems to be hard to get witnesses to murders in crowed pubs when sf members attack the police for trying to investigate it . why would that be i wonder ?
Murder of Robert McCartney - Wikipedia
how would you guarantee that wont happen ? do you have information not publicly known . as you say your self if you have information about these murders you should contact the police ......
not blind faith at all, just going on the facts of the matter.
SF are democratic, more and more people are seeing them for the viable alternative that they always were and will vote for them in greater numbers going forward.
so democratic that there are uncontested leadership votes ? and of course no more army council
Homeless in Northern Ireland: Shock figures show 217 died while waiting for place to call home last year - BelfastTelegraph.co.uk
cracking job on housing too
FF FG are doing a bang up job on housing here. no homeless at all.
nope they are a disgrace
and i m sure there is a thread some where to discuss that
Because nobody in the SF leadership has any association with what you are talking about. No party takes an unknown and puts them in a ministerial role. I'm quite happy to let SF try fix housing and health.
Again you are stating that as if they are facts you can prove , if they are do so
i have no doubt that a persons history as a murderer of innocent people would not bother sf one little bit
uncontested leaderships are when there are no other suitable candidates too put forward.
the army council are just the name for the governing body of SF, calling it the army council gives the body a bit more vrum vrum vra vra so that the party stays in line and operates to the policies that the voter base want and that individuals who do wrong are punished and removed from the party.
again the DUP preventing SF from dealing with housing coupled with no actual investment in NI because it is under british rule.
I can only give my opinion, as you are doing.
It depends on the situation I'd imagine. We have a history of criminals, terrorists, antisemites and fraudsters in government. I can accept people who have links to the conflict/troubles being in SF.
He was killed by former members of the IRA in 2005 during a fight in a pub, you can hardly blame the IRA and Sinn Fein for that anymore than you can blame the British army or British government if a former soldier killed someone in a pub.
sorry but harry you have no credibility here as well you know
unless of course the DEA are gona investigate it lol 🙄
The Germans unreservedly apologised and paid reparations (obviously this doesn't make amends), they put it into law that another like Hitler could never come to power again..
SF think Garda murderers should be treated like heroes, there is no apology, no attempt to make amends (e.g. the disappeared)
how many times in a row has there been no other suitable candidates ? do you know , lol jasas even putin pretends to be democratic but sfira can even be bothered , wonder if that one of the reasons people leave the "party"
you reckon its a branding issue , just a name ? so can you list the current members of the army council ?
IRA Army Council - Wikipedia
the members of the army council are as follows.
wait for it.
those who are the members of the army council.
people leave SF for all sorts of reasons, no different to any other political party.
yes, calling the governing body the army council rather then x committee is more likely to keep people in line who may be intending to bring the party into disrepute by behaving badly, and it is one of the reasons i like and vote for SF.
sort of making my argument there eodr arent you ,
a "party " controlled by no one knows who isnt democratic is it and then you say that its a good thing that this sinister group is a positive thing ?
still democratic party ? or the result of putting terrorists and criminals in power
