    I'm not trying to justify any killings, but I did explain why she was killed.

    Honestly I can understand fleggers much more easily than I can Free State militant anti-Republicans. I put their rabidness down to hatred of PSF's social democratic politics or a guilty conscience over the north- its probably a mixture of the two.

    He probably wasnt born than- asking him to justify it is like me asking you to justify the "famine".

    No we dont- I trust Brendan Hughes' account.

    Nobody else does.
    She was murdered, body hidden, her good name destroyed & still they lie

    Just to be clear I abhorred all violence. A passive resistance or civil rights approach would have been much more preferable. But that was just not possible, those routes were blocked of at that moment in time, unfortunately violence was inevitable. And who ever gets involved on either side knows the risk their taking Ruc, Brit,Loyalist or Provo - all of them know death is very possible & none of them were forced to enter the conflict.

    Hardly- you support British Imperialism therefore you justify anything and everything they have done. That is your logic.

    She was an informer, she was giving information to the tyrant. And don't call it a lie, her family were Republicans it would make no sense to kill her if she was a civilian which she clearly was not.

    You still persist with falsehoods, shame on you

    Do you also believe the story that she was killed for going to the aid of a British soldier that was in the media at the time and afterwards proven a total lie?

    I already addressed that on page24 first post.

    No, sure didn't she run off with a British soldier & leave her kids behind.

    Your whole story of the Provos just being psychopaths murdering for kicks says it.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,292 ✭✭✭tdv123

    I do. You can call Brendan Hughes what ever you want one thing the man wasn't was a liar. Probably the most honest from the conflict I've heard speak.

    He was a liar, McConville was tortured & murdered on the whim of evildoers

    I consider myself a constitutional republican. Just because someone dcoes not agree with cold blooed murder of innocents does not make one pro british. Anyway im out. Bed

    But when he says Gerry Adams was involved do you think he was telling the truth?

    Why would lie about this in particular and not other things which showed him in a bad light?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,292 ✭✭✭tdv123

    Nothing false about it mate, that's what all the evidence would suggest, your the one coming out with the more radical alternative to the most probable answer which is she was just your average informer. Your just blinded by your hatred for Republicanism.

    Again with the drama. She wasn't tortured she was shot once in the head, end of.

    The story was that Adams gave the order to kill her. I don't believe it.
    Hughes was an evil psychopath who was looking to go out with a bang.
    Pity he didn't make these claims to the press while he was still alive & could be questioned on his Bs

    She was tortured, that is undeniable.

    He wasnt though, very easy to judge from your safety in the south.

    Attacking a dead persons personality traits, nice. He was not an evil psychopath that's just your radical imagination again. And he gave plenty of interviews for media after the 1994 ceasefire he where explains quit a number of things about unclear events.

    It's a complete & utter lie.
    Not even any room for doubt. She was taken out, tortured & executed.
    All the rubbish you spout just shows how blind you are to the truth

    Nite all, will let you defame a murdered woman to your hearts content

    So your admitting you told a lie & that you were one of her killers. Maybe you should hand yourself into a police station.

    How is it defaming? Saying someone was actively on the pro-Union is not defaming them necessarily.

    Or do you think it is? Were all BA soldiers and RUC men evil in your eyes?

    Your just looking for things that never happened to happen. I'm trying to balance out the lie that the provos were just murdering psychos. If they were just murdering nutcases with no political aspirations why bother giving out warnings berfore setting off a bomb, surely if you were a murdering psycho you'd want to kill as many possible?

    To be honest mate your view is a very outdated stale freestater one that does not hold up to the evidence that is on the table.
