Noted that in the last election those running on a republican sinn fein ticket appeared as non-party on ballot sheets. In one ward here in Limerick almost 50% of their vote transferred back to the provisionals! which meant that a lot of the voters weren't keeping up to date with "saoirse"

Is this the only case of an Irish political party being declared to be "terrorist"?

Why just focus on Omagh? Why not ask about other bombings? For example, you could have asked who had (or better still - who had not) condemned such atrocities as the Dublin & Monaghan Bombings (which was the biggest mass murder in Ireland in recent times), and any of the other acts of slaughter.
I suspect you are just being a little selective.

Has republican SF even come out to condem the Omagh Bombing?

[Public Notice 4763]


Determination Pursuant to Executive Order 13224 Relating to
Continuity Irish Republican Army

In consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney
General, and the Secretary of Homeland Security, I have amended the
designation of Continuity Irish Republican Army pursuant to Executive
Order 13224 to add the following names as aliases: Continuity Army
Council; Republican Sinn Fein.
Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order
13224 that ``prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the
Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States
would render ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in
the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously,''
no prior notice need be provided to any person subject to this
determination who might have a constitutional presence in the United
States, because to do so would render ineffectual the measures
authorized in the Order.

Dated: July 9, 2004.
Colin L. Powell,
Secretary of State, Department of State.

RSF's New York Branch, the National Irish Freedom Committee, gave an award in 2003 to anti-war axtivist Mary Kelly. NIFC is run by John McDonough, who also hosts WBai's Radio Free Eireann. It will be interesting to see if McDonough broadcasts some comments from RSF president, Ruairi O'Bradaigh. Surely interviewing someone can not be construed as 'material support'.?
