Prisoners of what war? Putting bombs in schoolyards? Blowing more wee children to smithereens? Forcing hard working taximen to carry bombs?

There is only a war in the heads of those who continue to try and create one. Its over, everyone is talking and nobody, apart from a few, want it to continue. Brian Feeney got it right in the Irish News last week, all the Dissidents want is a return to the British Army on our streets, they would view that as a victory. Anyone currently in prison has been either convicted of a crime or charged with one and is awaiting trial. There is no internment, only judicial process and the judicial process is run by an elected, local assembly with those caught carrying out acts of violence being held to account for their actions. Its time to move on!!

True, sambam, I wouldn't mind if the dissidents actually targeted members of the military however, it seems they either don't have the bottle for this or are merely intent on targeting taxi drivers (a current favourite it seems), blowing up kebab shops, leaving bombs in public areas, bombs in schoolyards (this leaves me slightly curious to say the least)- basically making the same mistakes/perfecting the same strategy as the Provos-targeting the working man, woman and child.

I am of the opinion and have been for some time that activities in the occupied counties are in the absolute control of the brits. Is there a dissident republican war or are we veiwing a drama to further the shinners "peace" stategy. The day that a leading member of the british controlled sinn fein is assasinated is the day that I will reveiw my opinion.
