Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5Why has McGunness and SF remained silent on the siting of the New MI5 Headquarters in Holywood if they are so worried about the activities of British Intelligence?
How would Martin mc Guinness know that dissident Republicans were infiltrated by British Intelligence unless someone in British Intelligence told him?
If for example British Intelligence wanted information on Politicians and Activists in a particular party would it not make sense to have informants operating inside that party rather than a grouping bitterly opposed to that party who would never get near information which would be of value?
A Scap or a Denis Donaldson for example?
in termns of how mcguinness might have some vague notion that dissisend republicans are infilitrated by Briti hIntell9igenace, I would suggest it would require a special ihntelligence NOT to know. What the hell else would the British do - stand oin the street corners issuing them with gelignite, parcel wrapped? Of course they wil be infilratetd! One more excellent indicatuon of why these people will never amount to a hll of beans in this crazy world.
Firstly I am not defending dissident Republicans, I believe that their war is about effective as throwing snowballs at a bonfire.
Of course they are infiltrated by British Intelligence, any fool would know that. Sure if they were able to infiltrate the Provos right to Leadership level then theres no doubting that they have done the same with the dissidents.
The point I am making is that it is hypocritical of mc Guinness to make this claim about the dissidents when such high level touts were unmasked in his own organization. Don't forget that it wasn't the Provos who unmasked them and they would still be there only they were outed because someone decided to do so. Whether it was to embarrass Sinn fein or send a message to someone bigger of what could happen I don't know.
I wouldn't exactly call lining your own pockets and profiting from the misery and suffering of others as a "war".
Thats the word these gansters use to try and excuse away their actions.
