The current ruling parties FF and FG were involved in the irish civil war where hundreds of innocent people were killed...

Nothing is to be gained from dwelling in past conflicts. The peace process necessarily involves putting the past behind us and moving forward.

Sorry, which current member of FF or FG was involved in that? The lengths people go to try and say FF and FG are as bad as SF is comical.

I am more concerned with what he is fighting for now.
The IRA are gone and the war is over.

You are right to be concerned.

Read your last few posts . Considering you don't seem like ge tightest spark I can understand why you don't see that you were trying to justify the murders but you were

Calling him a "combatant" not there's a good reason for a face palm pic

Nah. It's a shyte paper. I won't argue with that. However, what they have printed is fact. Not 'whataboutery'. It'd be fact no matter where it was printed. It's the 'fact' that this thread is discussing.

I'm neither easily led nor hysterical. I just don't buy their bull5hit.

How many former IRA combatants do you think now work for SF and the peace process?

Editorial decision making in the Indo office:

Editor; How can we get at SF's growing support?

'Journalist' (ha!); What about we expose that they have a former IRA man working for them?

Editor; You are a genius....hold the front page for the gullible!

Barely There · 22-05-2014 10:57AM

How many Shinnerbots does it take to defend an IRA attrocity?

As many as the British Army killed during the troubles along with the amount killed by drone attacks in other places.

Jesus. The ruling classes are shitting themselves at the thoughts of the Shinners doing well.

I'd say shítting themselves is an understatement. The poor old Indo can't deal with the prospect of Sinn Fein taking votes of their beloved FF. Isn't democracy a bitch.

"Former IRA man"

He's a former child murderer who has never showed any remorse . Stop trying to sugar coat it . Just makes your argument all the more pathetic

I'm no fan of the Indo but it's a good bit of journalism.

If you really think the editor said anything along the lines of that then I feel sorry for you

Well it could be argued that his assassination was a direct result of bloody Sunday, seeing as many believe that event to sign the beginning of the troubles.

Entirely relevant.

It certainly would be a bitch if they ever got into power and tried to implement their policies. We would be running back to the ECB within 6 months.

I think this is a SF own goal myself BUT should the South Africans dig up Nelson Mandela and hang him for his past crimes?

My heart bleeds for you, but you'll have to suck it up like the rest of us if that's a democratic outcome. We've had fúcktards ruining a tiny little country for the last 90 odd years. And I don't think any other party would be capable of equalling their incompetence tbh.

They seem to be making solid progress regardless to be honest.

McMahon, like thousands of others in Ireland, is an ex-combatant in a conflict that has been over for 17 years. Him, and other Republicans for that matter, weren't the only people involved in that particular conflict either.

A combatent, who committed a blatent war crime then?

You need a history lesson. Bloody Sunday took place in 1972. Mountbatten was murdered in 1979. how could the murder be the direct result of something happened 7 years earlier. The troubles started in the late 60's. Before bloody sunday.

The reason he was killed is quite simple. He was an easy target and was a representation of the establishment. The IRA liked easy targets. Most cowards do.

You've obviously never taken on an 83 year old woman in hand to hand combat. Those handbags really hurt.

Not when you blow her to bits remotely.

Indeed i would have to suck it up like the rest of us as you so eloquently put it. That doesn't mean i have to like or hope it would happen. I reckon Sinn Fein would introduce new levels of incompetence never before seen on this planet. They would make their marxist cousins in south america look like economics experts.

So it would be ok if he had killed adults? People got killed in a horrible and regretable conflict.
I think you need to get over the hysteria about a long past event, review what has happened since. Review, who have kept their word about their decision to end the conflict and who is actively working in consolidating the peace in an ongoing process.

Shock horror, a former IRA man helping a Sinn Fein election campaign.
I would never have seen that happening :rolleyes:

Sinn Fein are emerging as the new kingpin of Irish politics.
I guess some people just can’t handle that.

If whataboutery was a crime, the Shinnerbots would be serving a life sentence.

So being disgusted about the killing of children is being hysterical now? And its not as long past as you would hope. Certainly not to John Maxwell. You obviously like to downplay premeditated child murder as "it aint no thang" as some of our american cousins like to say.

The pro-BA supporters and their Tory\unionist allies have no problem criticising SF for any murder related stuff yet turn a blind eye to their own army's murders.

I suggest you read up on the scale of the troubles before bloody Sunday, and how they escalated afterwards.

The Prince of Wales being the Colonel-in-Chief of the parachute regiment just might have made lord Mountbatten a target.

Speaking of history lessons, do you have any idea why Sinn Fein even exist? Because I'm guessing you haven't clue, so off you go and do some homework. But here's a tip, look under the chapter - The British Empire and it's deplorable record in Ireland. Very ironic to find a Brit apologist/revisionist speaking of cowards. Considering the many cowards in the British army and their cowardly service record during the Troubles. Mountbatten was not only a hated figure in Ireland, but also in Asia and in particular in India. Of course the revisionist Brit bots here probably haven't even a clue about what I'm referring to.
